Exchanging Currency

[DavieW]

Idiot!

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!

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!

Actually, I was going to write that they can drop my name but it won't help them and it won't help me either.

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.

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.

[TejanoLibre]

Lots of people offering 10. Lowest offer I got was 9.90.

$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!

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.

It's right on the edge of Once. Be careful at night specifically towards Corrientes and beyond. There are lots of busses coming down Viamonte to get to the center. All in all not bad, not great, but not bad.

[WorldTravel69]

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.

[DC Esq]

Do they accept the new $100 bills?

Yes, zero problems converting new 100's at multiple change places in the past week or two.

[Daddy Rulz]

Heading to BA next month. Are $100 bills OK for exchanging into pesos?

I seem to remember 50's being preferred some years ago. Thanks.

100's and 50's are pretty equally accepted, don't bring anything smaller.
