I'm a guy who is always looking to make a few bucks. Just wondering if there is anything that is small enough to pack in the states and can be sold for profit in CR. and if so, how would it be sold. I'm sure there may be a moral issue with the question and for those I may have offended I immediately apologize.

Was thinking about this recently too as I go back to the US several times a year. Check out Craigslist to get ideas. Especially the computer and electronics sections. Yeah, we got some good two shoe, Johnny Law types here that I'm sure will chastise for doing something wrong. Phuck em, good question. :D

I don't get the "moral issue" at all :?:

Any small electronic items (although I'd avoid cell phones) are packable - ask at your hotel and ask a chica - also know they love - and its expensive in CR - X boxes; any type of video games; I pods - I'm not tech adverse, but make sure whatever you bring is compatable.

I'm bringing a 32" flat screen TV , a Sony Ericsson Gameboy phone, and a box of Victoria's Secret stuff.

I learned a long time ago that "you don't get nuttin for nuttin." I have every confidence that what I'll get will be as good as I give.

And my head is NOT in the clouds. So I understand that the next guy might get the same. You should be so lucky.

I'm thinking he wants to make money and isn't talking about trinkets for putas. Could be wrong though. Buy girl gifts at the dollar store. I still have been too lazy to do it because even if ya brought 3 ipads, you might make $100 a piece. Might, I say, and just going by listings I've seen on craigslist. You might be able to sneak in a whole bunch of memory sticks which I understand are very cheap in the states.

Don't know if the prices have dropped in CR, but memory sticks (and other accessories) have dropped significantly here in Colombia.

I don't think that you will have any problem at all finding Tico's that will be more than happy to give you many counterfeit colonies for your items. :wink:
