Where is the best place to buy USD? I am guessing there must be places in London that do good rates?

try http://www.no1currency.com/. Usually been above market rates for the (I expect comparatively small sums) amounts I've needed

Post Office can be good too.

I would say post office is best. They were selling at 1.47 two days ago. I went to buy but believe it or not, the fucking post office dont have my postcode on their system. Work that one out. Gonna have to ring them tomorrow as the rate is only available online!

yeah I'd recommend post office too - currency delivered to your door and competitive rates thumbs up

and how do you go about it ?

was that supposed to be 40k?

Rate will be better than exchange - not dodgy - he is a poker player.

not sure how much i can get in 1 go - when do you need it by?
