MAn, just come to HK, bring your cash.
Go to any money exchange booth, I guarantee the rate is better than the banks/ATM machine.
IF u are not exchanging more than 100,000 RMB, then dont bother to waste time finding the best rate in HK from Mongkok, TST Chungking or Sheung Wan. Just exchange it in any shop (exclude those in the Mall or in the airport).
OR if you going to cross Lo Wu, Shenzhen. Once you get out from the chinese immigration, walk straight and get out from the main gate. Dont bother with the left and right shops before the gate.
Once u get out from the main gate before going down to the MEtro, turn RIGHT, Go to the first shop (covenience store) where they is a bald Guy or Lady, with money counting machine.
For the past few years, I always change my money here, best rate in Shenzhen and equivalent to HK , sometime higher.
If you exchanging an amount more than 50,000, ask for better rate. Usually they will give additional 0.001.
I am a regular there, even when i exchange for 10K, they also give me extra 0.0005 to 0.001.
And dont worry bout if money if fake. I never have problem with their notes over the years. If any vendor or shops refusing your RMB note or it is torned, just bring your not back to this money exchange shop, they will give you a new note.
Furthermore, they put a stamp on at the corner of the note to identify that it was exchanged from their shop.
See business card below for phone no. and address:
