Lufthansa had 2,500 ghost flights last year just to keep their landing slots open,

 

I wonder how many Thai airways had ghost flights over last year, probably a lot

ghosts know how to fly they dont need to take commerical airliners

Tried to buy an item on Shopee ..... 13,400bht, no COD option.

Shoppee Kbank closed for maintenance (14:30 on a Thursday afternoon) .... so I can't pay them.

 

Can you believe a major online shopping outlet has allowed their banking to close down?

shocking!!!  how long were they down,?   were u able to wait till they went back online?

in usa once they caught a guy hiding in an outdoor toilet ,,,,,,,,,,,,below the toilet in the poo looking up........

Nine months after the second jab you loose your EU certificate, if not boostered

im going to croatia in june and their new requirement is a jab within one year of travel.  so if i had my second jab in april i need a shot to go this may.....hopefully covid will die off by then and they wont require that from me.  i dont want to get boosted.  

thais dont hide the fact they want rich tourists.  why do you think they want copy of your bank statements

I buy all my green tea bags in the US. A Taiwanese company called Tenren. Amazing quality. Can't find it here. 

 

I buy bulk green tea on ebay. Either free shipping of relatively low shipping, direct from Chinese growers or distributors. Around $60-80 a kilo, for very high grade pearl Jasmine, or similar grade. No issues with customs. Far higher here, if you can find it. 

 

The green tea powder I use for matcha drinks. And frozen matcha. A nice kind of dessert food. I like Choui Fong. Reasonable and good taste. Pure. No additives or sugar. Easy to find on Lazada. 

im drinking osk family green tea bags with chlorella in it.  im seeing 50 bags on lazada for 200 bath..........try it. i  will try to try your green tea bags.  all i know is when i fly thru tokyo. the japanese are obsessed with green tea and when i was in airport in tokyo i was finding really nice tasting  green tea bags,,,,,,,,,,,i can never seem seem to find decent tasting green tea bags other than costco kirkland brand............in usa.  but i know they are out their somewhere.  just have to sample and find...........on ebay sometimes u can buy cheap sample tea bags cheap they are selling specificlly to get people to try to get them to buy larger amounts.   regarding green tea powder.   ,  i have found one in vietnam that is ceremonial grade that tastes good. what i do is i drink green tea bags in water and i add a touch of green tea powder to spruce up the flavor................i will never find the holy grail of green tea unless i visit japan long term they are obesessed

Lazada is way better. And their service is good. Use them alot. I order alot of exotic food, that I cannot find anywhere else, or is too expensive, elsewhere. Like quinoa, whole rye flakes, dates, green tea powder, organic rice cakes, and even some supplements. Have also bought blenders, tech equipment, etc. They are quite good. 

what kind of green tea powder do u buy that tastes good.  i also buy green tea bags. i buy osk brand green tea it has chlorella in it.  it is cheap on lazada 189 bath for 50 bags. costs 400 baht at tops market.  it tastes good.  what kind of green tea bags u buy>>>>>>?????????  supplements are very expensive in thaland maybe cheaper on lazada

What are most items you buy on Thai market or in a Thai shop ? The same Chinese c_rap ,as you call it . Like i said , do not expect caviar if you are paying for peanuts . Know the prices , a cheap plastic item costs nothing , but something with a decent amount of technology to make (  not only electronics ) , does does a certain amount . You can't find a McIntosh amp at 5000B , or a Rolex for 20.000B . Sorry that ain't happening . Try find it anywhere in the world , miracles do not exist , you believe in religion or not , doesn't matter , they just do not exist . I go further , you can buy many wood items in Thailand , sometimes for a few 100s , other times it does cost a few 1000s or even 20k or more . Did you ever expect the same quality on the "few100s" type then on the 10k type ? They might look similar on the pics...

It is the same like in every shop in Thailand , you check the quality in front , since you know warranty is useless . We all learned by mistakes , but if you bought a few items ever before you should know . Lazada/Shopee gives you plenty of choice of items , which before were very difficult to get or 100s of km away now finding them at a click away . They are certainly not all legit or give you something you expect to get , but imho it is just the same like in normal market , but with much more choice .

u are wrong jesus is alive and he consumes chinese plastic <deleted> too that breaks and heave into the ocean and it makes a huge plastic island , that china will claim as part of thier country and defend with military , which the chinese stole and copied from the west

even if im on ko tao they will send cod? i would think they would prefer to ship to bkk versus ko tao as shipping costs would be lower.  i mean a 10kg item must cost more to ship to ko tao versus bkk. and especially cod. where u might refuse it.  how doe cod work .  the item shows up and you pay cash?  i suppose in one way that works better for lazada as they dont incur the credit card fee

im here seasonally............i see an item on lazada and shoppee ..........they give option to pay upon delivery........u mean that i can order something and not pay and they bring it to my house to pay...........who would do that?  do i have to have my own home address or can i use hotel address??  which company is more reliable to use?????????   thanks for any insights

IMO business is down to about a third of what it was pre-COVID in Chiang Rai. Prices are 150 baht/hour, they must be pretty desperate for business asking 80 baht.

80 baht an hour.  can i get a ten hour massage?

Yea for sure. If it breaks while you rent the place it's yours to break and replace.

even if the door knob was 10 years old? i think it might break with every guest .its a gold mine idea.  just make items in room ready to break before check in

i think we can take it for granted that anyone wishing to travel widely in the near to middle future is going to have to be vaccinated. the thai's have it right; up to you.

croatia this summer is making me get a third as your last shot has to be within one year to enter...........so i have to get boosted.  pay to play.

Nobody is ever responsible for anything. I thought every Thai person knows this.

i rented a room once.  the door knob broke.  owner made me pay for it. said i broke it.  how about a knob on a sink if it broke do i pay?
