How to bring products to the official dollar

regarding E-Commerce, the local market has Two big limitations:

• Many companies are not located in Argentina and the shipping fee is too high
• Prices on some items are not competitive compared to the offer from abroad

In the face of these kinds of constraints, companies are gaining strength “door to door”, allowing to streamline operations and reduce the final amount to be paid.

These are the companies that have deposits in the United States, in cities like Miami, this provides users with a dropbox so that:

• Buy products on any page in the world
• Specify the address of these facilities in the purchase
• They will receive the purchase, which will be stored in a box
• They can pay the freight to Argentina in the official dollar of $105.25

In this way, it is possible to take advantage of free shipping (Free Shipping within the US), very popular in ebay o amazon, thus concentrating purchases in one place, And then process the shipment to Argentina in one package.

The freight can be paid in official dollars, no additional fee of 65% of stock

in conversation with iProUP, From the company Aerobox, they highlight that the company provides express mail service “100% legal” It is different from others who use “Valijeros” or tourists.

“You have Several trips per week. User who registers on the platform Receive a US address immediately and customer number. At the time of making your purchases, which can be in portals anywhere in the world, enter this data so that the items Sent to our warehouse in Miami”, they explain from the company.

One of its main advantages is that the freight is paid in official dollars. No additional cost 65% of stock.

“Some famous sites charge everything for the blue value because there is no company in Argentina,” they warn of the company whose value starts per kilogram u $ s17.

Thus, since the products are received at their facilities, they are processed by a machine that scans them and sends an image to the buyer, so that he controls what has arrived and can manage – if necessary – a refund with the seller if he is not satisfied with what was received and without waiting for it to arrive in Argentina.

“The platforms we offer this Box service give us the possibility to buy on the site of the world one wants and not like others that act as a marketplace i.e. they limit you from getting what they actually offer on their website”Stand out from Aerobox.

Another alternative with a similar procedure is Waiver OptionsWhich enables the user to purchase the product himself and send it to the address specified by the company in Miami.

The company has a starting kilo rate too u $ s17 and pre-quoting service on its platform to simulate process expenses.

in conversation with iProUP, Ludmila Garbaa, Head of the Division Argentina logistics waiver courier, agrees with fellow Aerobox in highlighting Speed ​​and simplicity As advantages when hiring a private courier, since the user does not perform any action at customs, but the company will represent him before the authority.

In addition, the specialist notes that customers pay for the shipment “Pesos at the official exchange rate”.

Another option available is BicaboxLow cost virtual locker platform.

Juan Hussain, CEO adds in an interview with this medium that operates on this platform ” Like having a friend who lives in the US or ChinaYou don’t have to wait for him to come visit the family.”

When users register, orThey have an address and a PO Box number for free. Thus, they can buy from any online store; Then they put that data in so we can get the product.”

The next step, Hussein explains, is Decide between drop shipping (Once you receive it, process it and leave it to Argentina) Or free storage for up to 30 days. “This last option is very useful for those who want to consolidate their purchases,” he asserts.
