Selling $96 in Canadian Paper currency for just $40 U.S. or will trade for 2 X 1 ounce silver bars/rounds. Here is my CL Ad http://westernmass.craigslist.org/clt/5167657603.html

Do you have a bank or credit union account? If they exchange foreign currency upon deposit (especially our neighboring country), their customers'/members' conversion fee should be much less than the $56 you'd be losing here. Mine used to be $10 or less before they discontinued the service. Even a currency exchange should incur less of a fee than $56.

If nowhere else, ask around at Harriman-West Airport (~3 miles away), someone might exchange for you there.

Unfortunately even if I could easily go somewhere with them and say "can you counterfeit check these and if they're real, convert them?", I only have 1 ozt silver bar left and IDK how much silver weight in my silverware.

I use Tdbank which won't accept foreign currency the only  Bank around here that does Foreign Exchange is Bank of America....One located in Albany N.Y. the other Greenfield and you have to be a customer.

Harriman airport is just down the road from me but it's not what you think....It's a tiny airport more for small prop planes,Helicopters etc.

I thought charter flights (or drug traffickers flying under radar LOL) might go from there to Canada. Combined with this (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1151169.0), sounds like you need to move, or take a road trip to meet a BofA customer to do it for you.

Im interested. Can you ship to Canada ?

Sure. Do i need customs paperwork do you know?

Don't think so. Check you pm for the address. I will also use escrow or you can ship first, your call.

Got the PM this will be in the mail first thing tomorrow.  Thank you!

Can you provide me the shipping price ?  :P

Or you accept 40$ shipped ?

$40 shipped unless they want some astronomical amount which i doubt.

Perfect!  ;)

You should be able to exchange it at some type of bank.  These bills are a few editions old (they were deemed too easy to counterfeit).

He is taking 0% Risk since i'm shipping first.  If you read my above post i explain the whole bank situation.

The lady that sold these to me was in her high 60's early 70's  She doesn't seem to be the counterfeit type.  :D

I will make them review by a friend who work in that.
I should be ok to get at least 40 back  :P

I will also probably keep some. Will let you know.

Shipped this morning. Put a few extras in the envelope  ;)

Perfect! Thanks you

Damn, sorry I missed this.

For those of you just tuning in, all those bills are SUPREMELY old, and are quite the relic of my youth. Would've been interested in the ones and twos -- haven't seen either of those in almost 20 years.

 ;D Pretty happy to get them. Just need to make sure they are real one. And will then put them into plastic to protect them!

Wow.. I haven't seen that era of bills for awhile, printing of the $1 bill stopped in 1989. Definitely a good buy valkir - even without collector's value, you would have paid ~ $53 CAD for $96 CAD. ;)

Yes if they are all real  ;D

They are old indeed. Some are from the 1950's  I have other foreign currency also. Quite unique pieces if interested.

Just posted 40 photos to my photobucket album  You can view them here http://s15.photobucket.com/user/texasholdem70/story If you need any pictures of the back or a particular bill(s) let me know.

Countries include U.S.,Mexico,Japan,Brazil,Jamaica,Carribean,Canada,Netherlands,France,Turkey,Caymen islands,Costa Rica,Australia,Portugal Etc. Etc.

Nice collection!  ;D

So I just receive the package.

The 10$ worth nothing since he is cut in half.  :-[

But the 2 x 20$ could worth something pretty good since they are really clean.

There is 2 or 3 2$ that are also pretty in good shape.

I will go see a expert tomorrow and will let you know!  ;D

Good news!

Your $10 bill is still worth $10, even if it is ripped! You can exchange it at the bank for the newer bills.

I'm glad you received the package....It's pretty fast too.  No need to pay until you have verified the authenticity of the bills.  I want to make sure you are happy. when you let an expert look at them and you are happy then you can make the payment to me.

Did you get the extra coins?  2 Of them are silver so don't spend them!! the third is just a canadian $1 Dollar coin!

Yes thanks I got the 3 piece.  ;)

I check and both 10 cents worth something like 2$ and the 1 dollar well its a 1990  :P

Will let you know!

Thanks again!

So I went to see a expert.

All paper worth the amount on it.  :P

He told me he ony accept ticket that are almost perfect. They also need to be special.

Anyway, there is 1 1$ and the 2 20$ that are in good condition. I keep them and transfer the 55 others $ in current cash.

THanks you OP

Great! I'm glad to see you're happy with the deal.
