I have a house in La Mision, which is between Rosarito and Ensenada. We want to buy a washer and dryer. Should we buy it in Rosarito or Ensenada, and
do you think we will get a better price at a Costco or at a local appliance store?

My mom bought a Washer and dryer at Best buy, whirpool beautiful pair,
MY wife and I bought ours there too in Oct. but we did nt cross ours over.
If you cross one at a time at night you should not have any problems with our
Duaneros at the border
or Just go to los Globos if you want the
easy way out . Deal with Pompano problems later on.

I just have a Honda Accord, so I could never fit a washer in my car! That's why I would really have to buy it in Mexico. What about Costco?

there's a big appliances scratch and dent store in TJ, i am getting all my appliances there and putting them on a shipper to mulege.
good prices, lightly damaged freight and no import duty to pay.
the broker gets a lot of stuff from the states, insurance claimed goods.
cathart - 2-12-2006 at 10:39 PM
What is the name of the store?
Bob and Susan - 2-13-2006 at 04:53 AM
and where is it?
capt. mike - 2-13-2006 at 06:53 AM
i don't know, you have to ask around or get the details from don Johnson, his daughter Sara Laura is connected with it somehow and they are
coordinating for me.
Pompano - 2-13-2006 at 07:28 AM
Bob y Susan...or anyone else who knows. What was the name of that trucking company who hauls freight from San Diego to Mulege again? I lost the info
from last year, dangit. You know, the ones who hauled my fridges down here for me, remember?
Bob and Susan - 2-13-2006 at 07:35 AM
its right around the corner from the otay crossing
Pompano - 2-13-2006 at 08:20 AM
Bob y Susan...I thought it was a smaller operation I dealt with...a father/son combo from Mulege and Tijuana? I believe thier name started with a
'U'....which could have been a first name also?

I would at least compare prices between Costco and Electra, which is north of Costco on the main drag in Ensenada. I got a new washer at Electra last
year, before Costco opened, for a pretty decent price.

I would think that if I bought a washer and dryer at Costco in Ensenada, though, that they would probably deliver it to La Mision, wouldn't they?
I buy mine for the hotel frm a man here in La Mision
Keri - 2-13-2006 at 03:30 PM
They are refurbished. He can also get new ones and he delivers, Decent prices. . Check your u2u for his phone number and name,k
cathart - 2-13-2006 at 05:58 PM

Keri, Thank you so much for the number--you didn't give me the man's name, though. Does he speak english?

Hi Cathart,
I can furnish you with the name and phone number of a great repairman/supplier for appliances.
He is based in Rosarito, and buys new (Kenmore and ?) washer/dryers from the maquiladora rejects (they come with warranty) at a good discount.
I guess that if you can get to Rosarito, you can take it back home from there.
cathart - 2-13-2006 at 11:29 PM
That would be great, Gypsy Jan, since both our oven and Gas heater are in need of repair!
