    Selling a car - coownership question

    Go to the Registro Automotor office (RNPA) that your car belongs to, get your 08 signed (without filling buyer's side) and certify signatures there. Your 08 is only valid for a month, but you can pay a AR$ 30 fine if it exceeds that time period. That way, whenever she needs to sell, all you...

    Whats the current rate per m2 for Colocación de Porcellantos

    Hi, for a good 'colocación', consider at least AR$ 70 per meter, plus all materials. Around 10 meters per day can be put by one 'oficial' and one 'ayudante' if they are doing a good job. If you need a good 'colocador', let me know, I'm a local architect and could put you in contact with one...

    liability insurance---photographers

    You can go to La Caja and get one. They cost nothing and normally last for a minimum of 2 months. It's as you said, so that they don't have to pay in case you have an accident. Check if they don't ask for a mandatory life insurance too. saludos, Ezequiel

    Looking to buy or rent a 12 passenger van

    As far as I know, legally, it will be impossible for you to rent anything with more than 5 seats, since insurance will not cover you, nor the rental company. Actually, I think it only covers 4 people in the car. To rent anything bigger, you will need a professional licensed driver with a CNRT...

    Expected Salaries

    As Hockey_nut said, you should think about 1 U$S to 1 peso. As I am in the business, I am sorry to say that you would be very lucky or need to show an amazing portfolio to get more than 2,500 - 3,000 pesos a month. And that is for a full time job, which means much more than 8 hours a day. Oh...

    Expat rollerhockey team

    Hockey_nut... As an argentine that has been an expat for more than half his life... a few things to say.. some my point of view, some reality since I play at Peru Beach (I took this season off). It is extremely easy for foreigners to join teams, if you know how to play, you are presented to...

    Shocking cost of ER care - update

    Medicine in Argentina is extremely cheap compared to almost any other country, especially when comparing private hospitals. And it is much cheaper than the rest of Latin America. The problem this generates is that new equipment isnt being bought as often as it should, which means that the...

    Heads Up: New Baggage Allowances

    Ries, it's not expensive as an excess in luggage, but U$S 68 is a fortune compared to what used to be free until a few days ago.

    Ideas for exports

    Jim, you are right, and I agree, but since they already have a representation (actually, their own offices), it would be impossible for you to legally sell their products. That is why, to buy "market" products in the US, I would definitely go for Hans Grohe or something of that sort. The ones...

    Ideas for exports

    You should think about exporting what you have buyers for. I believe it is rule #1 of doing business with someone else's produce. I have family in the wine business, so if you are interested in that, send me a PM. Jim, please don't take it as an offense. I will comment on your ideas. FV is...

    Outdoor gear

    Kyra, that's the one. I'm glad you found good deals. I bought some winter clothes for my 2 yr old son a few months back... Columbia stuff 50%. And have been buying since I came back to BA, 3 yrs ago. If you need something specific, you can order it, and generally, you get some discount.

    Outdoor gear

    Check out Av. Lacroze between Cabildo and Ciudad de la Paz. Don't remember the name of the store. 100 mts from subte Olleros. Their sale was like a month ago, but they still have some "cheap" stuff (25 - 30% off).

    Ice Hockey in BA?? I know...

    Unfortunately, the rink in Flores is the best you will find (and biggest). There used to be a couple good rinks, with good ice, but they became impossible to maintain. I suggest you either just play street hockey in Rosedal or join us at Perú Beach for the "national league"... well, at least...

    Getting around in Mendoza

    Bianca, I have a guide in Mendoza that works with me on my trips, and is a good friend. If you are interested, send me a PM. He speaks english (studying) and is a great guide. He actually specializes on mountain and adventure tours, but works in the gastronomic business when he's not guiding, so...
