Hi Ellis, I'm Juan the guy from Local Visitante. First of all, thank you for stopping by the place and publishing your visit, although it would have been nice if you told me about your channel because I didn't know about it and i really like the content. Also, I tell you that what you calculated was wrong. $93,000 Argentine pesos are £74 pounds, our exchange rate is £1 pound = $1243 Argentine pesos. I hope you didn´t pay everything with card because the exchange was not going to favor you at all, however if you exchanged £ for Argentine pesos in cash everything would have been much cheaper. Unfortunately, in our country we have two exchange markets, an official one that we cannot access and the parallel one with the values ​​that I mentioned. I hope you had a great time in Argentina and you can visit again in the future, it was a pleasure to welcome you in the store.

Visa converts to the favourable exchange rate on purchase, while Mastercard refunds the difference after a few days! Or western union would of given you the same!

I have just been to Argentina and I know that their currency right now is very confusing due to inflation. But if you would have gotten money out using Western Union, you get 1000 pesos for 1 pound, which makes it really cheap. This is called the blue dollar rate and that is the official rate, but the banks and online currency sites can’t follow the inflation, and that’s why they use a very high rate.

imagine going to argentina and not even investigate about the exchange in the country. like if you watched ANY youtube video about argentina you know that the "unofficial" exchange rate is $1000 ars = 1 usd. and that you never should use credit card or a bank to exchange money. almost all video is crying how expensive is everything instead of how cheap is everything with the 1000 = 1 exchange rate. you missed on buying a lot of great shirt for not spending 15 minutes researching about a country you need 15 hours to fly.

[@leandrohernanvega7817]

You calculated using the official exchange rate on google, but using a card from a foreing country you would get a special exchange rate. For example that PSG shirt for 34k ARS would have cost you 33 gbp, not 70ish GBP. The exchange rate is a little lower than "blue" cash rate that people are telling you but with the comfyness of using card.

I don't think so, that's not black/yellow but navy/yellow, probably Rosario Central or Atlanta. But there was probably one Peñarol shirt at 13:47. It's a Nanque (an Argentinean brand) shirt from '90s, that is great in my opinion. “Probably” because it doesn't have Parmalat sponsor on the back, so it could be a generic Nanque jersey.

@@thirtyseven37Peñarol had that type of shirt with that type of fabric made by Adidas in 1966, the black looks kind of washed out i guess because of time but it might not be a Peñarol shirt we never know... since Peñarol in that time didnt have the crest and the Adidas logo on the chest.

You were mistaken with the exchange rate. Nobody cares about the official exchange rate. If you had actual cash or you would withdraw from Western Union, you could exchange that cash for the double of what you think it's worth. When you say "40 quid" it's actually 20 quid. You have no idea how cheap these were for you. In any case, it was cheaper than you think because the "credit" card exchange rate for foreigners is instead of AR$ 1000 per Pound around AR$ 800 per pound. But not AR$ 500 per pound as you were thinking.
