    For the chipotle chilis I'd go down to $80, otherwise it's no biggie to pack them up. Weights are hand weights.

    My brother in-law just told me about this online Notary Service, https://signnow.com/. It looks like it could be a viable option, instead of shelling out $$$ and time going to the US Embassy.

    if there are any former Baexpats who are now in Columbia, can you comment on the visa situation. How does it compare to things here, specifically those of us who are supposed to leave every 90 days and generally just pay the fine when leaving at EZE. Thanks.

    US Stamps Needed

    Thanks for the suggestions. Actually, I am not dealing with a SASE. Yes, I can mail via FedEx/DHL, but if someone has stamps they can give up, I would like to purchase them.

    US Stamps Needed

    I know this sounds strange, but I have my reasons for needing about $5 worth of US stamps. Does anyone have any that they are willing to sell me? I can pay in pesos, or, if you prefer trade for home-made peanut butter. Thanks!
