Exchanged some paper for some real money (silver maples). Asked them for the spread between the buy and the sell price and they quoted me $3.14. Asked them about availability and was told they had ample suppllies available. Made my transaction and was on my way back to the ferry all within 15 minutes.

This was done at the Vancouver Bullion and Currency Exchange, 800 West Pender St. Thanks to the poster who posted this location a couple of weeks or so ago.
