Has anyone gotten 10 P to US $ yet?
[QUOTE=MikeT;437269]Has anyone gotten 10 P to US $ yet?[/QUOTE]Good chance of 10 today...
Dolarblue says 10.19.
[QUOTE=MikeT;437269]Has anyone gotten 10 P to US $ yet?[/QUOTE]I'm going to go try right now.
Lots of people offering 10. Lowest offer I got was 9.90.
I am looking at an apartment near cordoba and jean jaures near Paraguay. Seems to be a park that it faces. Any thoughts on the area. I will stay a week. Trips to the brothels every other day. Ok, so I don't have the libido that I once had. I hope to stay in an area with many sidewalk cafes. Food is high on my list of priorities. Any one have knowledge of this area.
Regards Hotrod 10.
The Area is good, just that if you like walking you will do a little. Side walk cafes are everywhere.
Here is a few Maps that will help. If you want to meet up will the guys at Exedra it is a bit of a walk. But is a short taxi ride.

[QUOTE=DanTien;437287]Lots of people offering 10. Lowest offer I got was 9.90.[/QUOTE]$10.40 Today, just a few minutes ago.
And that was for just a fist full of dollars.
Larger amounts should improve the take.
787 Carlos Pellegrini.
Next door to "La Madelein" in the luggage store. (across the street from Excedra.).
Ask for Alejandro, he is the owner.
Open until 6 pm.
Safer than a Bank!

You can tell him I sent you.
Back safely from my travels to the frozen north and headed out just now to change some USD.
Couldn't be arsed to walk all the way to Lavalle so just changed at the first place I know on the 100 block of Florida - 10.60.
[QUOTE=TejanoLibre;437340]You can tell him I sent you.[/QUOTE]
So you can go back and pick up your 20c on the dollar?
As anybody who has ever read this thread before should know by now, no matter how good the other services he provides are, don't go to TejanoLibre to change your dollars - he may have great contacts for finding chicas, but his favoured money changers are always behind the curve!

It would have been just a few extra taps on the keyboard but I thought that that was no longer necessary.
That you had dried up and blown away but no such luck I guess.
If you read the post the way that it is written then you will see that I exchanged some pocket change and received 10.40 which was good enough for me but that if someone exchanged larger amounts then they would probably receive a better rate.
Why don't you post the name and address of your source so people don't have to run around all over the place and guess?
It's not a fucking secret and your money man will be thrilled!
So Please Guys, DO NOT MENTION MY NAME if you happen to go to 787 Pellegrini to exchange a few dollars.
Personally I think that someone will get a lower rate if they don't mention this site or TL.
I want the money man to know how the clients arrived so he can't low-ball them.
It keeps him honest. He knows what people read and write.
And so does EVERYBODY on this fucking board! Idiot!
I'm sure that he may have budged had I asked him for a few dollars more but I was happy.
I'm not going to do a damn thing for 20 fucking cents on the dollar!
Never! Ever!
It's too fucking hot to do anything for 20 worthless cents.
I won't even wait in line for free money and that's what it would be.
Thanks for keeping up with your reading classes though.
TL.
You should go and see for yourself.
Hell, you might get 11 to 1 .
It's on the way to your secret money machine.

Charmed, I'm sure!
The general idea of this thread is to let people know what the going rate is and to help them find the best deal available, surely? That's all I'm doing.
I also made no effort and changed a few dollars. If previous experience is anything to go by, with more cash and a bit of effort I'd have probably got 10.70 - 10.80, just 2 hours after your generous attempt to send people to someone to ask for 10.40 in your name. Which is fine. You do your bit to help, I'm doing mine. What you getting so upset about?
And I'm not doing anything in secret. I don't know the address of the place on the 100 block of Florida, but I've posted directions to it on this very thread, probably more than once. It's actually my third choice, my second choice being the "Western Union" on Lavalle with Florida. My first choice (and the best rate in Buenos Aires without fail for most of the last 2 years), isn't a place you can just walk into, but I've made it an open invitation to introduce anyone that wants, including a private invitation to you (when you all but told me to fcuk off and mind my own business!).
You should take a chill pill and carry on about your business, but if I see you giving people a bum-steer I'll be calling you out on it.
Happy New Year!
Anyone heading back to USA who has left over 100 dollar bills please. Send me a pm. I need to shed bills. Twenties & tens.
They are tuff to exchange here. Thanks.

Happy New Year![/QUOTE]That's cool Dave!
I usually go to the closest money machine and then I don't find out what the real rates might be until I check this board.
No bum steer intended. Not for 20 cents.
When it's for somebody else I will make an extra effort to find the best rate.
Anyway, have a Happy New Year!
TL.
This is just a reference of what the exchange rate should be every day. Today its at 10.70 for the sell rate. Most money changers usually give you 20-30 points less. That is their earnings. So a rate of 10.40-10.50 is completely reasonable. I'm sure some places will give you more while others will give you less but the most average number is somewhere in the middle. I haven't changed dollars this month so far but my exchange house usually gives me 20 points less than the published blue rate. I'm sure if I drove to the centro I might get a couple points more but I'd lose time, gas money and parking fees so it doesn't make sense for me. Parking in recoleta and the centro is a bi*tch so I only drive there when I have no other choice. 50 pesos just to park your car for an hour. Ridiculous.

TL is a good reference point. Hes lived here for a while and knows the score.
