a request for non-audi help! currency woes

[WAUFX at aol.com]

Hallo friends and neighbors-

I have a problem. I won a pretty picture of Miss Mouton on eBay. Problem is,
the seller lives in Germany and wants funds in German Marks or Euros. Well, a
local bank will write a check for me in either of these currencies for the
princely sum of $40, or they will get me these paper currencies for $17.
Which sucks, considering the item itself is only 12 Euros, about $10.

: (

Is there anyone on this lovely list who lives near a big, big city with a
big, important bank who wouldn't mind changing some dollarses into Euros or
Marks for me?

TIA guys...

Megan
