<p>[QUOTE="tbudwiser, post: 1297607, member: 32774"]Yeah I think its understandable for people not to trust someone who comes up randomly asking to exchange cash. I think it's all about how you ask. If I were to ever ask, I'd start off by explaining what I do briefly then making my move. If it looked like something I really wanted, I'd even go as far to give them the newer bill first and let them examine it (only if it looked like someone that couldn't outrun me, an older Alaskan eskemo per se). It's perfectly reasonable. One time, the ATM wouldn't accept a brand new colorized $50. I couldn't figure out why. An older woman next to me fortunately recognized my difficulties, me (knowing that there was no way for her and her high heels to bail with my $ and make it far) allowed her to examine it and she switched out some $20's and a $10. So it also all depends on what kind of folk your dealing with, obviously. One other thing I can think of would be to NOT make it sound like a big deal or like a huge favor. Trust me, I used to be a door-to-door salesman. I know what I'm talking about <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
