    I plan to move to my wife's village in the center of Thailand. We have a house and a car there, lots of fruit and vegetable, rice is free, free range chicken as well. We cook all our meals and eat with the extended family too. I have lived there on and off for months and our living expenses were about 15.000 baht a month. So with your budget one could live very well there. It just depends from you. Thai families in the countryside live easily on a budget of 9.000 baht a month, they have food on their table and they are happy. 

    I'm sorry but your comment of all free is not convincing, or you have found a wife who works and produces, my compliments then, isn't she a sister ?

    Individual vendors of any nationality can scam you, no matter your need to bash Chinese. Read the reviews on Amazon sometime. Read complaints about Ebay vendors. However the e-commerce provider stands to ensure fairness. Both Lazada and Aliexpress are big enough to have a strong vested interest in doing so. And they've certainly been fair to me, as has Ebay when I needed them. Standards, of course, can differ, and the bar for refund is a bit higher in Asia. Wearing a shirt for year then trading it back in to Walmart ain't happening.

     

    We see countless complaints about "scams" around here supposedly arising from beer bars to airlines that when examined more closely turn out not to be scams. We also see a number of scams perpetrated by tourists, notably insurance refund scams. So what I wouldn't be surprised by is to see spurious claims of deserved refunds withheld when in fact no refund was deserved or was in fact provided. ????

    Yes, every country happens but the percentage with China suppliers is very high, like sending unsolicited low-quality items replaced by the items you ordered, only when you open the Chinese scam's package deal with Lazada; But if you like buying from the Chinese free to do it.

    How? Only lost parcel that happened to me, AliExpress paid me back.

     

    Many sellers and/or products that will not deliver to Thailand... :glare:

    and when they do their delivery costs are huge compared to Chinese shops,

    with sometimes shipping cost bigger than the price of the item ! :blink:

    Also no COD...

     

    Same for me. Both Lazada and Shoppee display price in Baht and have COD. :cool:

    Shoppee nowadays seems the best site to buy Chinese products from Thailand.

    How ? Faulty item and the supplier lost time expressly for the time that I can no longer claim a refund

    Utter nonsense. Have had money refunded several times from both Lazada and Aliexpress. The Chinese. Surprise!

     

    Nope, I've ordered a lot of goods from Lazada, paid by CC, and they've ALL arrived--and on time as well. Same with aliexpress except for one item costing USD0.57, which was refunded. Vendor swears it'll arrive someday. ????

     

    I lost money with Lazada and Aliexpress, if a surprise to you scam by Chinese ?

    same visa as me, he asked me to copy his passport, his mrs is here looking after the baby that they pretend has a Thai father. Think they paid the Thai guy for that so she can stay until the kid has grown up. All the Chinese somehow bought houses here, one couple just bought third 3rd house on the estate, can't even speak Thai. Chinese get away with anything here.

    Yes this because I said your visa is not the same, Chinese is the first scammer for everything.

    anyone can go out and take pics to suit the needs of their comment. you have selective pics here that do not represent reality at all.

     

    check out this thread from a little while ago....

     

     

     

    i bet i could ride down to ranong and within 15 minutes have dozens of pics showing the reality.

     

    your jedi powers are strong yinn i'll give you that.

     

    ps...the pic with the red bin....there is a bunch of trash sitting on the ground around it. maybe not the best pic to post when trying to troll people.

     

    i wonder what this world would be like if every individual was responsible for their own trash.

     

    all humans do it regardless of where they are. check out canada my home for example.

    I bet this place is owned by the military where every morning 5 AM they go to collect garbage on the beach, for the red container and probably empty

    I read on TVF “Thais stupid, dirty” everyday. Talk about me.

    should say “some Thais” like some farang.

     

    This OP about pattaya, famous farang and sex worker city. 

    Is not my life, not my city.

    this where I live, not same Pattaya, cleaner than farang country place in #48.

     

    Just because you say something, not mean you right, I wrong. 

     

    I post this already. All “Thais” not the same. If you live  sex tourist and sex worker city, I think it will be dirty. Is not thailand, just one place. 

    Different community is different. Thai people not all same each other!

    opposite pattaya
