After reading this and the Medicus thing I'm thinking of writing a book I'm going to call Intro to Argentine Business Administration: Penny Wise and Pound Foolish - The Buenos Aires Method

"Reduce prices? Nah, we'd rather fold as a business" seems to be the Argentine model

Wait... let me get this straight: they've bled 25K members due jacking rates up way above of inflation, so they're freezing cuotas for a year, BUT this offer is available to new members only? Incredible, whatever MBA mills they have here need to be shutdown, I didn't think it was possible to run...

I paid via Google Pay (international visa card) it let me through but then didn't charge me. I've yet to try a physical card, but I see people usinng their debit and credit cards without issue all the time. I'm waiting for the Subte to support the digital SUBE card. The busses take the digital...

Victoria Villarruel (Pelotuda de la Nación Argentina) gave Cometierra the Streisand Effect; as soon as she and the LLA trolls started talking about it (and falsely claiming it was mandatory reading or part of the sex education curriculum in Provincia) the publisher had to order reprints because...

For what it's worth, I was reading last night that La Nacion confirmed what we all suspected: Brazil is much cheaper than the coast in Argentina. I've been lucky to visit several places within Argentina and nearby, considering the time of year I'd avoid the North and Iguazu, maybe head south to...

We got some from WU a few weeks ago, no issues paying with them. Sorta yellow/beige; they look better in person than the BCRA info page

Well, we all owe you a debt of thanks for putting up with us which I'm sure isn't easy, and I also assume for paying for the site's hosting and maintaining it since I don't think I've ever seen an ad, so thank you for all that you do too! After some delays with the PJN I'm finally naturalizing...

You can delegate someone to do it, I've had my husband pickup stuff for me previously while I was at work, but you'll need access to the account to do so, so that's the first step

I got a hold of them relatively easily via this form https://www.correoargentino.com.ar/atencion-al-cliente/contacto but I'd wait until the 6th to message them. Like so many websites and government run portals here it being broken doesn't surprise me.

Yup, USPS ---> Correo Argentina, and unfortunately not, the only way to save on outrageous courier fees and brokerage would be using a company like Aerobox; you'd get it delivered in the US to their warehouse in Miami USPS, and then they bring it here, no Correo Argentina. And sure...

Folks are confusing things once again: there are two import regimes, one, the puerta a puerta system via Correo Argentina, the other, the private courier system. The only change has been the private courier system, which is active now. You can import up to 3 of the same item, up to 50KG total...

Ask not for whom the chainsaw revs, it revs for thee

Obligatory I'm not a lawyer/accountant: Legal Answers Note: What the law says, and what the reality is are two different things. What does the law say about these types of jobs? They're technically illegal (for the employers) in Argentina, because they are a dependency relationship masked as...

Hi Everyone! I'm moving to a new apartment and have several items available for sale such as furniture, electronics, small appliances, that don't suit the new apartment, or that I'm looking to sell to help cover the cost of moving/paying some bills. If any of these items are of interest to...

He's Santiago de Estero sexual, he only has eyes for Karina.

It's hard to say, I think the BCRA is running on fumes and something has to give to result in another influx of dollars to keep the pyramid scheme going. As you said, it could be lower retentions (further hurting tax revenue), or, IMO, more likely in the immediate future, another one of these...

Nope. He's a part time president. In his defense who wants to be responsible for a country where the minimum wage is $245.76/month, poverty is 60%, there's a recession, GDP has shrunk, and grocery store prices make Spain and the US look cheap? Might as well go abroad where a bunch of...

What does this have to do with the price of tea in Barrio Chino?
