Contacting over the Internet people and firms in the USA by unruffled

Buying a (used?) car in Ecuador by unruffled

I guess this question is already here somewhere, but I've looked and can't find anything on it. What to expats usually do about getting a car? Or do they? Or do they find some way to get theirs shipped in? I have an older but excellent condition ...

Warren

Wow! This site you gave me for auto quotes, Vinny, is a real eye opener. I looked for hours the past two evenings for used car prices, found little, and the very cheapest was $17,800, most over 20. That plus probably ten grand to move and get ... Read More

Thanks, Neil, for the e-mail info. How about pulling up US business sites for ordering products to be sent to Ecuador? Or something like buying stock? Where I'd be interacting with a US site, but not via e-mail..... Read More
