  1. Hi all the bike mentione one i at 33000 totall was the onei bought and i will share experience with you

    first the auction starts at 1200n hrs not 1100 so if you are there about 0900 hr s you have more than enought time to watch the bikes or cars there is a stock list available

    it takes a little while but they will begin at nr one till the last one so pick a few lowest km bikes say 4 and bit the spread is about 2 bids so you pay about 2000 bath more than the reserve price

    after that bring it to a mechanic and change the oil etc

    i am quite happy with it and as funcat mentioned you have to be lucky but the asking price the shop is still 30000 bath for a 2009 click with 25000km on it so i think go the young low km bikes at the auction

  11. Hi

    I want to ask you about chiang rai,

    everybody is talking about chiang mai but how is live in your place how is chiang rai are there lots of entertainment and restaurants and how is the village you live in

    please inform me about the life you living compared to chiang mai

    please do it through a personal mail

    thx

    peter

    Main thigs to consider are living in a place where you can get a direct phone line so you can have ADSL. So house or apartment/condo rent, you will need to be abel to connect and not depend on wi fi.

    Thailand still does not have 3G.

    You could have a professional dedicated server line connected. Don't know the costs, but figure to be maybe $250 a month or more.

    If you can live with pretty good service most of the time, then the 6MB lines are usually consistant with TOT phone company. But remember the line is shared, and speeds sometimes depend on how many people on your particular line are on at a certain time.

    Weekends and early evenings and early mornings are susually a little bit slower.

    As an example, I am usually streaming live tv from the usa and listening to radio and have a local tv box connected to the router.

    Most times the tv streams without skipping, but on occassion it does. Radio often is not interupted, and my tv box never has any connection problems unless the whole system goes down (rare, but happens about once a week for an hour or two).

    As others have said, you need to come check things out for yourself.

    Housing is way cheaper than back home, as is electric and water.

    No Gas lines, only LPG tanks for cooking or electric cooking.

    Depending on your lifestyle and needs, you could live decent from about 20,000 up, plus food, clothing, and entertainment.

    In Chiang Rai (I know Chiang Mai is a little more expensive for rent) for example I pay 5,000 for a nice (unfurnished) 3 bedroom 2 bath home with a yard and covered parking in a middle/high class security neighborhood. Furniture is mostly inexpensive here.

    Electric runs from 1,500 to 2,000 with all the lights, computer, TV, A/C, space heater (yes it can get cool in the wintertime nites).

    Water is about 150 and home association fees about 300 (includes trash pick up).

    Internet and phone is 690 TOT telephone.

    The rest of expences are for transportation, food and misc.

    As for bringing your dog......... Probably more hastle than it is worth for the stress and problems bringing a pet into country and if you go home problems bringing you pet into the USA

  12. hi all

    i am comming to chiang mai in july and i have about 150 blueray rips on my hardrive so if anyone is interesting in the latest movies from2011 till 2008 at that time give me a call the quality is the best and i also have the software that plays the mkv files

    you also can download the from usenet throug lightning usenet the cost are about 2.50 euro a month but you have to do it on a nice download speed otherwise it takes ages

    so give me a pm at that time and i can put them on your harddrive

  13. if you know such a house doenst have to be big please give me a pm

    thx

    I live near Laguna Homes close to Rimping Mee Chok, and there are houses there from 5-10,000 a month. Laguna homes start from 1.5 million baht ++++

    Practically every soi in my current moo bahn has houses for rent from 5,000 up.

    Just drive around the moo bahns with a thai in tow and ring all the numbers on the thousands of gates you will see, and you will easily find somewhere really cheap.

    As an example, I have a friend with a Brand NEW house that cost 1.5mill a few months back, close to RImping Mee Chok, and he has it listed on a few websites for rent FULLY furnished for 15,000 (20,000 on some sites for some reason). He offered it me for 8000 a month about a month or two ago, and recently offered it to someone else for 6000 a month.

    Avoid the real estate agents if you're looking for a rental - get on yer bike, and get out looking. MUCH cheaper in the long run.

    A house very close or in the city as a lot of condo's are, will not be easily found for these prices. But if you plan to have a motorbike or car here, then depending on your intended lifestyle, staying 10 minutes drive out of the city will net you big savings.

    Phil
