I stand corrected then ....Garbarino did not "go bust last year".
This is a rather adventurous calculation you are making here ... Are you taking the difference between the blue and the official and dividing this by the official? If the blue is double the official rate, then you get to a discount of 100% (i.e. free)? On top of that, why would the official rate bear any relevance to me. It is pure fiction.You're already getting about a 70% discount, it's called the Blue Dollar discount
Thanks for posting about this website. Can I ask what you ended up buying on there? Where they brand name stuff? What is their warranty policy compared with stores? This is great to know and will bookmark the site.I stand corrected then ....

Anyway, I thought I might give a quick update / summary on how I proceeded. I ended up buying almost all my stuff in Delta (https://delta.com.ar/delta/). This store offers stuff on Mercado Libre, so I contacted them directly. Compared to ML, I got an additional discount (5-10%). I could then deposit the cash in their bank (ICBC) [for deposits no DNI is required] and two days all the stuff was delivered to my door (no delivery cost).
NB: the communication was via Whatsapp and the attention was excellent.
In average, these prices are probably around 20% below Fravega, Garbarino, Rodo etc.
I bought a washing machine, a TV, a microwave. I was also about to buy a secarropas, but they just ran out of stock. Brands i bought was 2xSamsung and a Philco.Thanks for posting about this website.

Thanks for that follow-up info. I follow your chain of thought. I typically always buy brand name items as I find they are better quality and last longer. I will definitely try that website.

If you go to their website, you see there are various guarantee options. Personally i buy good brands, don’t buy additional protection, and hope for the best.
