My local bank (which, as far as I can tell, consists of three branches of a rather large piggy bank, each guarded by women with 1980s bangs) was willing to make the exchange, but for a rather hefty base fee + percentage of the US value. If Madison banks are equally fee-happy, you can expect to pay roughly $US65 on your exchange of $NT2000, leaving you just enough "profit" to buy a single Diet Pepsi Twist (but not the 20 oz size).<br /><br />Know any needy Taiwanes e graduate students?<br /><br />KimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
