QUOTE(rachel_xxx @ May 13 2011, 12:13 AM) Yea you can buy on the spot but as I remember if you buy together with the ticket can get discount right? buy online is cheaper . I was lucky to have purchased it earlier cos when I was done checking-in and claimed the GST all the restaurants at the airport already closed. rm10 for the meal ?@@ |

QUOTE(stimix @ May 21 2011, 10:28 AM) Refer to Wawasan-lah...Currently they are selling at 2.86 got 2.8 rate at kota bharu kelantan , maybank very exp (2.94)http://www.wawasanmoneychanger.com.my/exchangeRates.asp However on Korean won, they are not the cheapest. From my survey, you can get atleast RM2.83 if you change ~ Ikano, Atria, & Bkt bintang area. BTW, Market rate as per Bank Negara latest is at RM2.78. http://www.bnm.gov.my/statistics/exchangerates.php it's impossible getting this rate. Wth RM2.83 as the best benchmark Today, If you convert to US$ 1st & thereafter to Korean won, you will be getting slighty better at RM2.80-2.81 at Seoul..well..just a small token haha but the trader have nt much , just manage to change 190k won |

QUOTE(stimix @ May 21 2011, 07:57 PM) haha you wrong liao lor...When you buy Korean Won, you suppose to look at Selling rate & not buying rate. Buying rate is when you come back from Korea & want to convert back to RM. haha confuse d .If buying rate in Kelantan ~ RM2.80, probably the selling rate there can be as high as RM2.95. 2molo flight to kl need to change some more . |

QUOTE(star_keras @ May 24 2011, 05:17 PM) For those who desperately need to change Korean Won at KLIA. i change at the mines @ 2.87Better change it after check in. I change it at the departure hall, cheapest rate can get is 3.1 but inside can get 2.91 Thank God I only change few hundred. Central Market ( near KFC, corner) got quite good rate for Korean Won. Last time I check is 2.78 but during that time Bank Negara rate is only 2.69. Wawasan rate seriously not for Korean Won jusco at equine park too. Added on May 24, 2011, 9:22 pm QUOTE(stimix @ May 24 2011, 04:04 PM) You are lucky..nowadays, this common protest that appeared on TV News screen almost weekly during the 80's & 90's very rare liao..So having experience it really fortunate haha haha. just back from myeondong . one word ,awesome and grab some cheap mask , not those branded natural republic etc 4k won for ten piece of mask dont ever dream to get those branded mask at cheap price .( face shop , inistfree , skinfood, misha ) they mostly are around 10k won per pack or up to 15k won per pack (10 piece) This post has been edited by fcuk90: May 24 2011, 09:22 PM |
