You forgot to mention they're scamming at LEAST an additional 4% on the exchange rate (which is terrible for us right now). Not only that, they tend to give an even WORSE exchange rate for cheques than for cash, so you often wind up paying $2 plus 8 to 10%.
So why do I still use them? Because they don't make me wait 5 weeks for the cheque to clear.
