Good advice!
Look at the last 10 days: at some stage the US$ was over €1.37, today it's well under €1.31 - now on a $1,000 check that's already ~€40 in your favour = more than the bank charges plus a good cup of coffee in most countries...
I certainly gamble on that in recent months - sometimes I have checks laying for over a month before I bank them! And I keep an eye on the financial news...
