To add to this issue, some places selling top-ups also take this as an opportunity to build in a bit extra for themselves also. For example, ZebraPay is an operator of automatic top-up machines. They sell top-ups at a rate of 6RON/EUR. The problem is, (4.54 * 1.19 ~= 5.40RON/EUR) shows that a rate of 6RON/EUR is even more excessive- the top-up machine operator is taking 11% extra on top. Many places will show you the rate they are selling top-ups at, so you can shop around to a degree. But do shop around. I know an extra 0.60RON per euro isn't a whole lot for someone coming from the US, but still.
