Might have someone FedEx me laptop I forgot in usa to Buenos Aires. How safe/reliable is this?

Where do you find it in Buenos Aires? What butcher shop? Would pay the extra price. Number one priority is grass fed, organic important too but I need grass fed beef. Also interested in pastured/natural pork products.

Amazed to see $10 fees for each transaction at Banelco ATM's. And I assume the limit of any one transaction is 5000 pesos? This makes it very hard to have access to my own money without confiscatory fees. What's the solution? Any ATM's that don't have this fee? Can you still send money to...

Do I need a prescription from a doctor to get blood-panels done, or can a lab just do the tests I ask them for? I'd pay out of pocket, no insurance here. I need a general blood panel and a few more esoteric tests. What is a lab that will do reliable and high-quality tests? I was thinking of...

When you check in to a hotel they usually check your passport. Do they check the visa and if it's still valid, or just the passport? Does it matter? It wouldn't be a horribly expired visa, just over 90 days

Trying to fly (one-way preferably, but whatever's cheaper) Buenos Aires to Rio soon and all tickets seem just way overpriced. Was wondering if anyone had a different resource for discount plane ticket to Rio. Thanks.

I'm writing about this https://m.facebook.com/groups/384381348350377?view=permalink&id=1490800577708443 I saw this dog myself in person the other day. She's such a sweet, kind dog, and is scared half to death. People were trying to care for her on the street but she ran away when she heard some...

I love the Argie short shorts for men! But where can I buy some pairs that aren't so expensive? In Palermo at places like Bolivia these run like $30+ even when on sale. Looking to pay less than that...

Does anyone know who it might be? People with high diagnostic skill and who are also open-minded and practice something close to integrative medicine. Please let me know. Send me dm if necessary... Would also be curious to know if people know just a good dermatologist, and a good generalist...

One time I got a package with some books and a second cell phone and I had to go in to the Retiro office to pick it up because for home delivery they tried to put some ridiculous $300 (dollars) tariff on it. I did convince the guy at the post office to let me pick it all up for free but I don't...

Any nice places open 24 hours where I can go read late at night? There used to be a place at Scalabrini Ortiz and Santa Fe but it's no longer 24 hour. Babieca next to El Ateneo used to be open 24/hrs a day a while ago but is that still the case? Any nice cafes in Palermo Soho that are open 24...

What is the best natural products/supplements/dietetica store? By best I mean with the highest quality products and supplements, hopefully some imported brands, and the widest variety/range. I've been to many in Palermo Soho but they're not that great and have very few things.

I need a good high-quality curcumin (not turmeric/ "curcuma") in pill form. I haven't been able to find it yet at various natural/herb stores and wanted to know if anyone has seen it somewhere, and where I could get it. Would also be curious to know if supplements like ashwagandha are available...

Any updated version/guide online that's accurate? The TimeOut guide seems to be a bit old... Are Wednesdays still a big night at Asia de Cuba?

It's summer and I get tired of eating beef sometimes. Was wondering where I could find good and NATURAL fish, or if I should not bother looking. When I say natural I mean not farm raised, not tilapia, just regular fish from the ocean or the rivers. Some place where I can get it fresh and good. I...

I know bitcoin is used quite a bit, but was wondering if others can be traded for cash here. For example ethereum. Bitcoin hard to use lately because of the fees and the wait time. Sorry if question has already been asked. Curious to know of reliable and safe contacts for trading, or if there...

Any good carnicerias in Palermo Soho? I never lived in this neighborhood before. Lots of restaurants/bars but was wondering if there is a good carniceria here, and also if there are good small shops for buying high quality fruit, eggs, etc.; I'm not even sure there are good supermarkets nearby.

Are they still around? Regardless, I'd like to know where to find the best rates. I'm curious about Palermo, there used to be one on Scalabrini Ortiz about a block or two up from Santa Fe walking toward Cordoba, on the left side.

I know this is a board about Buenos Aires and I apologize about asking RE other cities. But I was curious if any of you have lived in Cordoba and if you think it's a nice place, and what it might be like. Is downtown Cordoba nice?
