Hi all, reasonably new to Dubai and as you can see, very new to this forum...

Need a little help if anyone can give me the info!

I work in Iran (Kharg Island) and a workmate asked me to buy a Laptop for him for when I return, only problem is he's given me 8 x 1million Rial Cheques and NO-ONE wants to cash/exchange them! Apparently they are only legal tender in Iran.

Now I don't want to disappoint my friend, and will if need be buy the Laptop myself and take to Iran, but I don't want to be left with 8million Rial I can't spend... It's a fair amount of cash in Iran and I only have one more stint there before I move to Saudi...

Any advice would be helpful...

How about contacting your friend??

Managed to get rid of them in exchange for real money, thanks to all who PM'd me on this matter, very helpful indeed.
