Exchanging Currency

[QUOTE=Daddy Rulz;427807]Next I always wear a sweatshirt or sweater I can take off. If it's too hot wear two t-shirts. The cambio will be in a galaria usually in the back. Before you hit the street, change your apperance in another shop. Take off the sweater or sweatshirt. While you stroll through the galeria pay attention to who is paying attention to you. Spend 2-3 minutes walking in a circle, start walking one way and double back, look for anybody looking at you. If you don't see anybody watching you then leave, walk a block, and get in a random cab. It sounds odd but it doesn't take long, just a minute or two.[/QUOTE]The key is to keep alert and constantly do the unexpected.

As I was awaiting my flight out of Aeroparque to Santiago, Chile, I was of course unable to find any authorized manner of losing the excess 350-400 pesos that I had in my possession. I was, however, able to find someone who was just entering Argentina from the USA whom I was able to get to give me $50 US for 350 pesos, and I bought lunch with the remaining 57 pesos I had in my possession prior to my flight out.

FYI, one should budget around 45 pesos for the taxi fare to Aeroparque from the AP house if done during a period of busy traffic as mine was.

[QUOTE=Toymann;426896]Thanks WhiteCat. Got a great tip from blanco gatita. I am staying on junin kitty corner to the cemetery in recoleta. As you head down junin after vincente Lopez and before las heras there is a coin store across from the newly renovated recoleta mall. Walked in and asked for cambio. Nice young fella walking me into the back room that is setup like a bank tellers window. No hassles and very professional. Was offered 6:1 for 1000 countered with 6. 2 for 2000 used. Agreed after a short discussion with the boss. Good bills, checked them all out, looked just fine. Very convenient as this store is 10 meters away from my apartment. Highly recommended. Thanks Kitty. Mongering on all. Toymann[/QUOTE]Went to this coin store today, very close to my hotel, got 6:1, seems like they will do it for just about any amount.

Something on the horizon?

[QUOTE=California Jay;427834]Something on the horizon?[/QUOTE]Xoom has fluctuated, sometimes daily swing in one go, from 6.1x to 5.7x, the entire time I've been using it 5-6x per month since early August

I wouldn't read anything into this normal swing unless it hits 6.2 and higher for consistent week+

I will be visiting BA in Jan and was wondering how the Blue Dollar exchange rate is effecting the rates of the girls. I am sure they will be wanting to be paid in dollars, but when they convert their price to Pesos are they doing it at the official exchange rate or the blue dollar exchange rate? With a spread of around 30-35% are you able to really cash in on the benefit or are the girls wise to it?

Argentina is a peso country, and you should stick to pesos. Most of the chicas are not "wise" to the spread, and it is good to keep it that way. Even if a chica asks for a "spread adjusted" payment amount, please take my word for it and pay with pesos.

Any girl at Madahos, Black, Hippo, Newport, etc will probably hit you at $200. 00 dollars these days and a decent counter offer is $800. 00 pesos MAX!

That's for a very hot Boliche Chica.

Otherwise you can count on about $400. 00 to $600 pesos an hour for an Indy.

$600. 00 pesos or a flat $100. 00 bucks is close enough for horse shoes and hand granades so you don't want to piss the girl off over $5. 00 dollars because she will take it out on you in the bedroom.

P. S. Guerrero, how did you come up with that screen name?

I've never seen you before.

Just curious.

Also, nobody knows what the Dollar will be worth in January; it may actually become outlawed.

Avoid the chicas who a few months ago were happy with 100usd at 4. 45, but now want 600p, did their services get better or do they just want more because you get more for your dollar? The only chicas I see wanting blue rate are here on AP and whose clients are mostly gringos. There is so much out there in the 300p-400p that give great service.

Check again most FL's are around 400p for FULL SERVICE, with higher end chicas 500p. Quit trying to get people to think 600p is the going rate.

Madahos and boliches are a different matter all together.

Of course your chicas know 600p because that's what you tell them gringos will pay,

It's a tough number to pin down .

If EVERYONE posted what they are paying then we can come up with an average but they have to be apples and apples .

It's true, I'm shocked but these days the numbers I hear outside of the clubs are 400 to 600 pesos and nothing less.

Sure there are 200p girls out there too but you get what you pay for in looks .

The escorts are all at 350p minimum plus taxi so your back to 400p.

Street walkers asking and getting 300p downtown.

It's insane.

Of course the Privado Chicas have all sorts of price ranges.

Maybe from 40p to 400p?

I have never used an Escort so I don't know what they will ask for if you work them.

They may come over for less.

I just don't want to try someone that I don't know anything about or that is a Super Pro but I also don't want to hurt the girl's feelings and tell her to leave because she does not look like her picture.

$600p may not be the norm for an Indy but I don't try out very many new ones, at least not every day.

I'm usually happy with the 10 or so that I rotate and as they retire temporarily, hook a Keeper or just disappear that's when it's time to find some new ones.

Shit, you tell me where the girls are a lot less than the 400 to 600p range and I will be thankful.

We all will be Happy.

I just hate to argue with a poor girl over $16. 00 dollars and ask her to perform Circus Tricks.

Thanks,

TL

PS - We ALL get GRINGOED ! Even I do , there's nothing we can do about it .

I guess you can have a card printed in Perfect Spanish saying that you are a deaf - mute Argentine and would like to fuck .

Pull out a calculator and press 300 p .

But anymore there is soooooooooooo much info here that it's hard to absorb it. I will say though that this subject and the subject of January have been discussed ad nauseam here. Pay in pesos and pesos only, January is a down month expect the supply to be tight. Privado girls are going for between 150 at the low end to 500 (CP) at the high, with good quality around the 3-350 number. (Daddy's law of privados is coming more into play; hotter chicas at upper end providing fewer services whill at lower end not so visually appealing but they will let you stick a cactus up their ass if you want to) Club girls are going to be around 6 and up, with premium clubs being more. Without trying to start a ruckus it does seem that for whatever reason TL's girls, while slutty as hell, do seem to want a little extra.

Decide what experience you want; delivery, go to a privado and check out the line up, or hit the clubs for the full on fantasy of picking up the hot chick and budget accordingly.

Pretty outdated / inflated local rates coming from a local source. You either know it firsthand or you don't. You admit in most recent reply you don't have firsthand xp and get girls other ways, yet quote here inflated numbers as if you did have firsthand xp. That's pretty odd.

Newports. Relatively very few chicas will quote in dollars and when they do, yes it's $200 USD and once in blue moon if they smell no Spanish speaking sucker tourist, $300 USD. But they all quickly back pedal off this the minute you laugh, tell them you just want to rent their pussy for awhile not buy for life, etc. Most chicas quote still in pesos. Keep it that way.

Cost. The chica network tells new girls coming in the "standard" short time 1-2 pop price is 500-600 pesos. Doesn't mean you won't get plus / minus 100 pesos of this but a trusted chica who was training a brand new girl starting first day at NP that I and other AP monger met told us this was what she knew as "standard" rate and encouragd new chicas to know as "standard" rate.

Doesn't mean you won't have the hottest or mercs try to charge more, but if you have to baseline from somewhere, I'd use this.

What you GET for that price totally depends on you though. One hour, all night, whatever. Want more, pay more is usual rule though. At the higher end, such as the handful of blacks girls that rotate on off nights in np, getting to be lot more rare now, they take minimum 800 and sometimes 1k. But these chicas also are more amenable in my xp for that price to deliver half night or toda la noche. Their ego just wants that price, what they deliver is up to negotiation and you not being a jerk.

Madahos, Blacks. Have already posted my price xp from this aug to now; in short, my xp is nothing short of 800p for the avg range girls will get them out of club, with more luck towards 3am and later because even these avg chicks want bit more earlier in night; 1000p for the hotter / they think they are in hotter range chicks there. 1200p+ for the 4-5 hottest on any given night and they know it. These ego chicks would rather make zero than go for you for one peso less than their absolute min 1200. However unlike indies that charge 350 / hr generally, this takeout "session" from club girls can last much longer. Depends on you, what and how you negotiate into their takeout price, etc.

I'd say Internet indie chick is better value if you want an hour or long hour 90min. Club gals cost more for sure but session length more controllable based on your negotiation and willingness to tell that chick no and go onto another fish in the club pond to try.

Not been into hippo this trip so can't say. Highly suspect given chica network that it is much different than Madahos or blacks.

Indy. The vast range of indies including highly rated, reviewed and know exactly what you get is right at 350 per hour, with a smaller base at 400, and a very few handful at 500. There is a couple I've seen at 600-650 now but those are the outlier exception. Even a casual glance at either of the two major local forums will show you vast range of good looking, well reviewed chicas are at the 350p baseline.

Some of these chicas will give decent price break for a 2hr or 3hr session. Some won't, but some will. YMMV based on who you are, act like, repeats, etc.

350 vs 600 is pretty far off even for horseshoes and hand grenades and I'm pretty well up on the scale the price police would say is high. You should pay whatever the heck you want to pay, but pretending 600 is close enough to stamdard hour is pretty dumb unless you want to be peddling the idea that the "standard" is 600 / hr from indies.

Occasionally, advocating higher prices is a harbinger of some type of commission-based compensation structure.
