[QUOTE="GeorgeM, post: 1364624, member: 28550"]I've done transactions in bank lobbies before. Very safe. Just make it clear that any money you get from a transaction is getting deposited right away (and any purchases you make are going into your safe deposit box). That makes it clear to the person you're dealing with that there's no room for funny business. A police station seems like it might be an even safer.
