    Ordering Something Online

    I have heard nothing but success stories about AliExpress orders from China. This is where many are starting to order from. Can end up even cheaper than the States with free or very cheap shipping. I've never heard of anyone who hasn't received their package, and for some reason, they normally...

    Send $1500.00 Dollars To The Usa Every Month

    Another update. This is mainly for those who use the search function and might appreciate the info in the future. My U$ 1000 transaction has now gone through. It just took yet another face-to-face visit, and I'm halfway proud of myself for not giving up. You gotta fight!....for your right!... ok...

    New Iphone

    Hi Tom. There's one posted by a user on the forum in the classifieds. http://baexpats.org/classifieds/item/826-iphone-5s-32g-unlocked-sealed-us850/ Wouldn't be surprised if he's already sold it, though.

    The MacDaddy should certainly be able to. In July his rate was 400 pesos to unlock. PM me if you want his email address.

    I Need Cell Phone Advice...

    Johnnie, I also know very little about cell phones. Neither my husband nor I have smart phones, but that is changing come Christmas. Our excuse is honestly our baby. We'd like to be able to be in touch faster (and without worrying about credit), not just with each other but with my family in the...

    Send $1500.00 Dollars To The Usa Every Month

    I wanted to update. My $1000 transaction never went through with Banco Frances, even though they had told me it was approved and should take 48 hours. I emailed and called and emailed and called and they did continue to say that it was approved, but that it just hadn't gone through yet. All they...

    Property Investment

    This is a concern for me. All our savings go to the "future real estate investment fund." We own 2 properties and will eventually want to buy again, but I know that AFIP will want us to prove the funds, and that won't be easy. (We can prove funds for how we bought the properties we now own, but...

    Most Wtf Moment Ever

    True, true. Definitely a cultural difference, but for a lot of those parents it's not just an exception every once in a while. For many Argentines, it's every night. I know many Argentines who tell me their children go to bed at whatever time they crash, and the thing is...young children don't...

    How Was Your Very First Day In Argentina?

    Great thread. Feb 2007. Warm and balmy. The taxi driver talked the whole way, and I only understood about 10%, but my only vivid visual memory is turning onto 9 de Julio while he was warning me "cuidado con tu plata." And I responded, "Ah, no uso mucha joyería." And he said, "No, no, plata...
