Hi,

We have a cell phone with an AIS Sim card that has been replenished every month by purchasing a 12CALL card. Since we never used it much, the last 3 years, the available balance is now a shade under 5,000 baht.

We are leaving the country next month and will no longer have a need for the sim card. So, the question is: does anybody know if these things can be sold on the open market? If so, we would be happy to offer it to anyone who could use it. It would be a shame to just let it expire.

Please advise.

Thanks.

Why did you accumulate so much credit? It doesn't need to be topped up monthly!

Thanks for your question but since the water is over the dam...............

Not sure if the shop is even there today, let alone any old magazines. (Doesn't hurt to ask though)

I don't think that any of the Farang run used bookstores are selling National Geographics any more, however, the used place across from Suriwong Books has a lot of old English magazines as does the used book store behind Tanin Market on Chang Puak Road. They are both owned by Thais

A tip for the frugal; This is where most of the Farang used bookshops buy cheap books to resell.

Thanks George.

Hunter S. Thompson has left the building.

Have you checked with Raintree Resource Center? Because I've heard that they get some of the books and magazines from dead farangs without any family

OK. Will check it out. I know where it is....been there before. Great tip! Thanks

I'm looking to buy some old English language magazines in Chiangmai. National Geographic, Life, Time, Road and Track or anything similar that has pictures would be OK. I am not a collector. I will just cut out some pictures. Therefore, the magazines do not have to be in good condition. It's more important they be old. I tried a few used bookstores around town without any luck. Appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks.
