Good Place To Change Your Dosh
I think this place may be own by Bazza.
I used the Western Union place on Soi Buckeroo opposite Soi Choiapoon near Oasis go go. Found they offered very good exchange rates even better than the place on soi LK.

Does it vary that much that it merits traipsing around?
Even if it was 1 Baht different (unlikely) it would only save £20 in a £1000. OK, £20 is £20 but if the difference is only fractions of a Baht then it is not worth while. I prefer a place that is sheltered. Both from ther sun and hordes of people watching me conduct my business. I use 1 of the 2 places behind McDonalds opposite the top of Soi 13.

The main rule is. The airports are slightly worse than anywhere else so dont change shit loads there.
The other rule is dont change it till you get to LOS. |

Little shop opposite "Champagne Gogo" on LKMetro, he'll match any rate offered by opposition!

i just tend to have a quick look as walking past exchanges but the difference is quite small as i only change a couple of hundred pounds at a go so only a few baht in it for me and can't see the point of traipsing around when i'll probably waste more money 5baht pissing than i could save and just use a place thats handy for me and a reasonable rate
