So, the problem is that it´s to easy to buy silencers. Naturally, everybody knows it´s the silencer that kills and not the gun.

No not the gun, it’s the crazy MF pulling the trigger. 

His cornbread ain’t cooked all the way through!

It is madness perpetuated by greed!

3 choices: USPS, USPS, or USPS. Never DHL. Never UPS. Never FedEx. Never! The private couriers will rip you off and tack on more charges to receive the package than it cost to send it. Learn this the easy way, not the hard way.

 

In general, the best way of all is to buy stuff from Amazon so it has a guaranteed import duty price known up front that can't be meddled with by customs. Customs can't touch you for 1 baht. And amazon delivery prices have sank so low it can be mind boggling these days.

 

Amazon will not ship to Thailand via USPS. UPS “customs agent” not only wanted more money but demanded I come to the airport with my passport to register as an importer. Twice packages have been sent back because I refuse to do this. The guy was a real AH. Fortunately Amazon reimbursed everything but the frustration was not worth it. 

Having sent a few packages myself and having very bad experiences with the large courier services, I absolutely concur with the above. Remember “if it fits it ships!”

Exact same thing happened to me.  Wife had to input the numbers on front and back of her ID card in order to activate the wallet.

Sorry to hear Bruce.  I'm just guessing all the documentation you need is in the house.  Or it was anyway.  Maybe go with a mutual friend that can help keep peace and ask for your stuff.  Next try taking police with you if that doesn't work.  They will probably want a fee for this service.

Had to use it once because of double booking mistake. What a PIA that was. Took a very long time to get through to this bot what the problem was, which would have been handled in a few minutes talking to a real person, even in Thailand!

Comprehension is not a big thing for you?
Where did I say leave your family?
 
I see ten year olds riding three up going and coming to school everyday. Guess what....none are getting killed, none...not one.
 
You and your ilk are simply projecting your western norms. Common sense and responsibility...where did you learn that - in the west. Well mate we aren't in the west anymore, and it is what is here, get used to it.
 
Why not license and insure ten year olds...they are going to do it anyway. Make it legal.
 
 

Mate, you are wasting your time trying to have a conversation with the Dudley Dorights on here. Although it can be quite amusing teasing the retards. I can imagine the gritted teeth, the vein in their forehead popping and the red face as they scream at their pc/phone. You MUST obey!!!!! Poor sods.

Impossible to make generalizations about all five million immigration offices in Thailand. What they expect depends on the office, whether or not they speak English well depends on the individual officer.
 
The only times I've heard of people with under consideration stamps being denied the extension is when they've withdrawn money from the bank (making the balance lower than 400k).

Shocking to think there is no critical thinking here.....wait what am I saying, I’ve known this for a long time!

NCB??

Did it recently in buriram. Yes updated KR2 was needed. Yes they required updated bank book when returning for stamp after 30 day under consideration.

No proper engineering or safety in anything in that photo!

All in the name of disaster relief!  Seems all the military purchases fall into this category!

The big news here is that Chiangmai university is its own nation!

I have read most of the TM30 threads on TV, albeit I admit not completely but so far I haven't seen anyone claiming that they are going to stay at home and give up domestic travel and visits  due to the current TM30 tomfoolery.

I'm in Buriram and know little about Hua Hin. My friend is overseas and wants to find an agent to help locate a rental house.

Does anyone know a reputable agent that i can put my friend in touch with?

Thanks in advance.

Tried to post this in Hua Hin category but was not allowed.

For me, it would depend a great deal on the context. But a random police officer appearing at my door would have to have a warrant. Otherwise, I will happily meet him at his office. I would not open my door. Would do the same thing in the US, by the way.

I used to love dealing with <deleted> like that. If the lone po po is at your door it is for something very simple. Give you a message, someone found your wallet and it is at the station please bring ID to claim it, etc. However if something more sinister has occurred then you may want to reconsider you stance. Consensual encounter is just that. If it were more there would be far more than one po po and yes they would already be armed with a warrant!
