Buenos Aires Arbolitos
Looking at the FX rates to be had in Buenos Aires this week, and it looks like there's a massive difference between the official rate of 4.6 to the USD and the black market rate of 7.something.
I've read elsewhere on the interweb that the best place to go for black market FX is on Florida Street between Cordoba and Corrientes. Though the experience seems to involve finding someone in the street, going to a shady place and transacting, which makes me wonder....
Has anyone changed black market currency in BA? Did it go smoothly? Any special tricks to watch out for?
Thanks in advance
