Going to Japan at the end of the year and looking to exchange money before the exchange rate drops. Anyone know anywhere with good rates?

I've no experience with Yen exchange but have found the small exchange on the north east corner of Bourke/Swanston intersection to have the best deals for GBP, USD, and ZAR in the past couple of years. That booth works in tandem with the booth on the south east corner of the intersection so if you want a particularly currency one booth is running low on (or you want smaller notes rather than large notes so you've got something useful when you land), they can generally oblige.
Will change day to day. I always hit up
the big 4 banks
Australia post (no comissions)
Travelex Online (not via their retail kiosk)
SMaller exchangers in Chinatown.
