I heard if Scotland goes the Queens going with it because she likes Craichidh better than London. Any truth to that?

Ha, ha! I wouldn't blame her.
There's a huge movement here in the north of England to encourage the Scots to vote 'yes' and to take the north of England with them, just to get away from this totally inept Conservative government!

I'll be coming down to BA with over 10 K USD.
I need advice on the process at both USA and ARG required documentation.
IE. What forms to fill out and where do you get and submit said forms.
Many thanks from those of us who need this info.
Jackpot.
You want FinCEN Form 105. Here is a link to the form itself:
[URL]www.fincen.gov/fin105_cmir.pdf[/URL]
You file this on departure from the US. See:
[URL]https://www.ffiec.gov/bsa_aml_infobase/pages_manual/OLM_035.htm[/URL]
These are the relevant laws:
31 USA C. 5316; 31 CFR 1010.340 and 1010.306.
The customs form to enter Argentina will ask you if you are carrying more than $10 k. Upon entering Argentina, you will need to fill out Form OM. 2249-A. Here is a link with more information:
[URL]http://www.afip.gov.ar/english/touristInformation.asp[/URL]#g.
"Entry and exit of currency:
Entry of cash or monetary instruments to the Argentine territory (RG 2704).
The travelers, older than 16 years old and emancipated, that bring cash and / or monetary instrument in foreign or national currency for an amount equal or above ten thousand American Dollars ($10,000) to the Argentine territory shall declare said action before the Customs service when entering into the country through the Form OM. 2249-A.
However, the amount shall be of five thousand American Dollars ($5,000) in the case of travelers under the age of 16 years old and not emancipated.
These limits shall be applicable to each traveler or crew. The currency exchange shall be made using the exchange rate of the day prior to the arrival informed by the Bank of the Argentine Nation."
Then AFIP will make a phone call and arrange to have your ass robbed before you get five clicks down the road. Ha ha. Hope that helps!
I read that as saying if you bring in more than 10 K, they are going to force you to change it to pesos on arrival at the official rate. Does that automatically give you permission to turn around and buy dollars back at the official rate?

Jackpot.[/QUOTE]Would it not be cheaper to bring the allowable limit in cash and then use one of the "services" to bring in the rest? Paying the 200 USD per 10 k is cheaper than getting fleeced at the bank! (at least that's how much I paid last year, maybe its more now?)

You will not be forced to exchange the USD into local currency.
-A maximum of $10,000 USD or equivalent in other foreign currencies (this includes gold and silver bullion, which is quantified at its metal value, NOT the face value of the gold / silver coins) may be exported from Argentina. Any amounts OVER $10,000 USD in value must be exported in the form of Argentine pesos, declared, and paperwork presented substantiating the origin and legality of the funds.
Greetings Everyone,
Today at approximately 4 pm a friend of mine exchanged $1,000 USD for pesos.
Just before he left to exchange his cash, the popular local exchange rate websites were reporting the following Blue Dollar exchange rates:

Hello, I would like to know if there are still cuevas working to exchange currency unofficially or only arbolitos in Florida. A coleague is arriving next Wednesday and asking me to exchange in a cueva. When I travel there I always use a friend of mine working in a realstate office but I don't want to point this person there. If cuevas are still working, could anyone give me some address? (I suppose it's allowed through private message, I don't know).
Thank you.
GiK.
[QUOTE=BigBossMan;441273]I am posting so that Dickhead will check my math. The number is so high I do not trust my own work. You can tell I work for a large organization.
So On June 5, using [URL]Xoom.com[/URL] I exchanged at 10.31 P to $1.
Today September 12, I can exchange at 12.9515 P to $1.
So we have seen a ((12.9515/10.31) -1)*100 = 25.6% increase.
It has been 99 days so the daily percentage increase has been ((1. 256^(1/99)) -1)*100 = . 231%.
To the get annual rate: ((1. 002307^365) -1)*100 = 131.88%.
Wow! What is annualized inflation? Do I receive 23.82 P to $1 next June? Simple extrapolation is obviously not the way to forecast currency movements.[/QUOTE]It is up 3. 5% in 11 days.
When inflation was at its zenith in the Weimar Republic, the workers demanded to be paid twice a day. Their wives would come to the job site at lunch time to get the money to go grocery shopping before the prices went up again in the afternoon.
I suspect that many latina women view their pussies as a hedge against inflation. It must be nice to sell a product where after you sell it, you still have it. It gives a whole new meaning to the concept of a "perpetual inventory."

Up from 13.4075 6 days ago on September 21,2014. I calculate 5. 5% in a week.
[QUOTE=BigBossMan;441482]Up from 13.4075 6 days ago on September 21,2014. I calculate 5. 5% in a week.[/QUOTE]This week it is quoting 13.8015 down 2. 44% from last week's 14.1475.
Anyone know of a way to pull up current blue rate. Google was no help. Dated info. Thanks.

But it is a large part of who I am.
I saw a 750 ml bottle of Norton Reserva 2011 at Costco today for $11.99. If any of you on the ground is so inclined to check, what is the current price at Disco or in BA?

The touts tend to rely on this one more. La nation is a local newspaper and more easily recognized by locals. I carried a link to this on my samsung which helped me get 10 cents more over 500 USD. Ha ha. Not a big deal and is only worth an empanada and a glass of Malbec but it is cool to look like you are well informed.
I was wondering if gold and silver prices in BA are based on Cristina's imaginary rate or on the blue rate, or what. If anyone is on Talcahuano, could they got the spot price for gold and/or silver? This would be a way around the 10k cash limitation (bringing junk silver dollars, for example).
[QUOTE=HotRod11;441658]Anyone know of a way to pull up current blue rate. Google was no help. Dated info. Thanks.[/QUOTE]Okay, for the 10,000 time, here is the list of websites reporting the daily Blue Dolar exchange rates, copied from the Front Page of this forum:

Of course, you could simply use the links on the Forum's Front Page.

May be this was reported before but today (Tuesday, Oct 21st) I found an Blue-exchange place in Ricoletta that is offering the best rates. It is on XXXXXX.XXXXXXXXXX.xxxxxxxxx. When I went there this morning there is no line but I saw a line this afternoon. They gave me 20 cents less than the rates published on LaNacion. That is 40 cents more than on Calle Florida...
P.S. I edited the post to remove the address of the exchange. I got a PM from one of the members saying it is "dumb shit to post address for an illegal activity". I am removing it out of respect but personally I think it is foolish to think that the cops do not know the locations of ALL the exchanges. There was actually a cop standing right outside and next to him was the line. Cop was minding his own business and no one cared that he was there.
[URL]http://www.buenosairesherald.com/article/172762/central-bank-increases-pressure-on-[/URL]‘blue’.
I wondered why the blue was stuck on 14.70 - and here's the answer.
There's a crackdown on Exchange Houses, hopefully won't last long.

You were far nice than I would have been. Tell me the address of the place and I'll post it.

[QUOTE=Member#3320;441905]Where did you get 15 to one yesterday?[/QUOTE]My friend! LOL.
I got 14.30 on Monday. Florida, corner with Corrientes in the Galleria in the very back. After many years of going to the same place I did not know it was illegal to use the Exchange Houses to get the "Blue Rate?" I'm going back on Friday and will report on what I get.
I got 14.50 yesterday.
I got 14.10 on Florida/corner with Corrientes in the Galleria in the very back today about 14:00.
This is my Argentine Grandfather (no relation, just a good friend over the years).
Like all of you I bring cash and exchange it on Florida street. Over the last several years I can't remember how many times I have done this with no problem. At a flower stand on Florida st with a very large man, OK big fat guy, about ten days ago I exchanged four hundred dollars and one of the one hundred peso bills was a fake. I have been back several times to confront him but he hasn't been three. I will keep you posted.
