The shipping cost from the United States is US$ 90, added to the product price of US$ 209.79, reaching a total of US$ 769.37 to be paid. Shipping is done by mail and has an additional cost of US$ 24.50, arriving approximately on June 21, but with possible delays that may extend beyond 45 days.
The Hot Sale is an event that will set the consumption patterns of a new social class in the country, the dollarized one. During this discount event, international purchase transactions that have been showing notable growth in recent months are expected to take place. Purchases made through couriers have taxes of 10.5%, with fast and free deliveries in the United States before arriving in Argentina after four business days, which can represent significant savings compared to local purchases.
The Hot Sale 2025 will be a key moment to analyze how the easing of currency controls and the parity between the peso and the dollar affect the consumption habits of Argentinians. With an increase in the limit for personal purchases from abroad and the ability to receive products directly at home from international stores, massive participation in this e-commerce event is expected.
The ease of buying electronics, clothing, and footwear from international stores like Amazon, Walmart, and AliExpress, along with the increase in limits for personal purchases from abroad, makes the Hot Sale a highly anticipated event for Argentine consumers. Imports of products worth up to US$ 400 are exempt from tariffs, resulting in more competitive prices for local consumers. Purchases made with international couriers allow for products weighing up to 50 kilos per package, with limits on the number of units and annual orders set.
To purchase products from abroad, it is necessary to make the online purchase and pay for shipping costs and taxes to the international courier. For example, in the case of purchasing a laptop valued at US$ 469.58, there would be an additional surcharge calculated by the courier on the remaining total after applying the exemption, resulting in a total cost that, despite the increase for the service, can remain competitive compared to local prices.
