Looking at sometime late this week or early next week.

Yes, agreed. It was worth a shot. I'm gonna have to end up taking the blue rate I think. We'll see though. I'd be willing to break it up into smaller pieces with different people. It doesn't have to be a lump sum.

I should have clarified that I'm looking at someone who'd be willing to wire me the money directly to my U.S. account from their account -- typically someone who uses xoom to get their money here. That way I save from having to take the street rate, and you save on xoom transaction fees.

I should clarify that I'm looking for someone who would normally get the xoom rate to wire the money directly to me in dollars and I hand you pesos. It, at least, saves you transaction fees, and it saves me from having to take the street rate. However, I'm open to all ideas.

Getting ready to sell my car and will have appx. 170.000 ARS. Looking to take USD back with me. If anyone has any ideas on how to make this happen please respond.

I'm actually available as a #4 person to all the baexpats. I'm about to sell my vehicle for $170.000 and need the money in dollars. I am willing to drive to Capital Federal and do the following: 1. On the day of travel, we will check the xoom.com rate of exchange. 2. I will provide you, in ARS...

Here is the link. I'm leaving the country in two weeks and need to sell this car. It's been an awesome vehicle, 7 seats, all leather. There is superficial damage to the back tail light but I will compensate for that in the price (I've already talked with a taller about how much it would cost to...

Can someone explain the process of selling a used car in Argentina (e.g., the tramites involved)? I've got a 2008 VW Sharan to sell. Thank you.

I've been here for about two years now, and don't know a whole lot but it seems as if the Blue Dollar rate has stagnated the past few months (or dropped). Is this a fairly normal cycle? I know about the Chinese currency exchange which is keeping the rate low, but I was just wondering if someone...

To update, 4G is not in my area yet. Although in BA the other day I was receiving the "LTE" speeds. Guess it'll be another year or so before I can take advantage, but like one of the people said above, Movistar was exceptionally efficient in helping me get set up--only to let me down with no...

I don't know. My precaria (for permanent residency) was only good for three months. I had to renew my expired precaria (another story) and it cost $10 ARS per renewal (one for me and a couple for the kids). Perhaps you can get a turno at a different office of Migraciones--like say, La Plata...

If you are still looking I know of a good one in LA Plata.

All supported bands on my phone are LTE: Bands: 1/3/4/7/17/38/40

Mine is ¨working¨ and the settings are correct on the phone, but I cannot tell if it is truly functioning in 4G. I went to the Movistar website and it says you have to have a plan that works with 4G--I think mine does, but will check on that. I guess I was just expecting the phone to say ¨4G¨ or...

My phone supports band 17, so it should work, correct? Please advise. I have been reading and think that perhaps I need to have a plan that supports 4G. I´m checking with Movistar to make sure.

Hello all, I have two 4g compatible phones, unlocked, and installed with local 4g movistar Sims. Problem is I can't tell if their running 4G or not. I do get a little "H+" sign sometimes it otherwise there's no indicators. Can someone help?

I figured that, but as always I'm surprised by the multitude of answers you can get daily depending on the person you talk to in Argentina.

I have a very specific question. As of July we had a baby in Argentina. He already has his DNI, I have all of our documents apostilized (apostilled?). We are from the US, by the way. My FBI background check will arrive next week, and my Argentina background check will be available next week as...

Just by way of updating this thread (and closing it out), as most of you know the xoom rate is now better than Ria, so that pretty much sums up the thread. That being said, I never was able to send myself a significant amount of money w/o the website canceling the transaction. I'll stick with...

If my account in the US does have my middle name (which is possible) I still didn't register it with Ria that way. I suppose someone could do that scenario--but it's not me...I've been living here for 17 months now.
