I hope you have enough time to buy them- wet to France Sep 12 ordered them over a week ahead of time through AAA and they took 5 business days to come in

Just go to the ATM at the airport when you land.

For crying out loud!!!!! The guy wants to buy your EUROs. You know the one s you found in your pocket after returning from that trip you took a few years ago. The ones that are sitting unused in your drawer that you may never use. If you got them let him know. Otherwise why even reply to the thread. Geez!!!

Seriously?

I doubt anyone has a miscellaneous 40 euros sitting around in a drawer that they wouldn't use again. For that amount, they probably would have been more careful about spending most or all of it before coming back.
OP wants a deal. It might fly for something up to 20 euros. Maybe a number of people would take the deal.

When we opened our Schwab checking account back in 2009, you had to invest with them in order to get it. I don't know what they require now. But I agree, it's the best. No added fee, only the bank exchange rate, and you can withdraw up to $500 (in euros) per card per day. So that was $1000 for us. We used to pay our Paris rental in cash withdrawn from any ATM there (Schwab credits back the withdrawal fee) before we got our checking account. Now we withdraw money with our cards to stock up our French bank account.
But I don't think you can open a checking account with them without investing with them.

No Blame-
 

I am in Europe now. It will cost $1.08 per Euro at an ATM- based on the two banks I use (Chase, Schwab). That should be the rate for just about any US bank. What is more ATM fees will be refunded by just about any US bank.

A trick is to "decline the conversion rate" - then your bank's rate ($1.08) will apply. This works at ATMs in most European countries, whether or not they are Schengen.

This will not work in Hungary where all machines charge an 18 percent commission. However, by law, shops here have to accept cards. But it is nice to have currency for tips, just be aware it will cost you and I see no way around it, unless your bank will let you buy Hungarian currency (forints) before you travel. Shops here may accept Euros but at a very poor exchange rate (they have to exchange them for forints so that is fair.) - - There may be other countries that work this way. Also, never visit a machine that says EUR if the currency is other than the Euro - they are huge ripoffs. Czech Republic has some "good" machines and some rip-off machines. Best rates are usually at an ATM outside an actual bank.

Can't blame the OP for trying to make a profit. No need to purchase an overpriced item, however.

Little cash needed in Europe
 

Spent 3 weeks in Europe with only 20 euros in cash. Credit cards are accepted everywhere. Even taxis.

Wow, I would love to get in on this action. After the OP reaches his desired Euro goal, I would like to buy your remaining Euro at the same rate. I will give you $8,000 USD for 10,000 Euro. Thanks.
