  1. I am not a punter, but if I was the last thing I would be doing in Thailand is buying lady drinks. For the love of god, can someone explain it to me what is the POINT?
  2. like I said no one can match china shipping rates a few years back when ebay Thailand started getting bigger they seemed to offer some kind of volume merchant deal with DHL. when I went to DHL to ask about it they of course did not have a clue. now I just use fastship. it's not cheaper than Thailand post, but it is much cheaper for courier services such as UPS and Fedex
  3. Between 550 baht and 650 baht approx. 2-3 weeks.
  4. Is this Sizzler? Give me a break
  5. What business is that
  6. me too, so I hid mine
  7. when I moved here 10 years ago I thought I might teach in case I needed the money. From the research I done even back then they were checking the degrees pretty seriously. I brought original degree and sealed transcripts from my university because that is what I heard every school asked for.
  8. if by law you are not allowed to work on retirement visa then what law says you are supposed to pay tax? 5th world nonsense right there and some of you are suggesting getting a tax number don't forget to bend over during your 90 day report too. During your visa extension please do say "take my money" for all the rights and privileges they gave you in Thailand. meanwhile Chinese, hk, taiwanese citizens are not paying tax on their multiple rentals in Thailand you people are pathetic and dumb beyond belief
  9. No. My wife was paying into SS for over 20 years and now that we might go to Canada she asked at the office. It was a hard no.
  10. so much outrage. Nothing will be done.
  11. Hmmm....where did i hear this before?
  12. Forget it. Everyone's reflux is different with different triggers. What can they do except give you pills which may or may not work. The only thing you should do is have an endoscopy and go from there or opt for a surgery.... which for personal reasons I would never do in Thailand.
  13. I have been selling on Amazon since it was called Amazon auctions. I tried selling fisherman pants in 2003 when market saturation was much lower. I did not sell 1 pair. This market is way oversaturated. Most of the sellers on Amazon selling these overpriced pants are running ads which cost a lot more than standard 18% amazon fee. As for Amazon itself, it is extremely hard to get approved to sell on this platform. Yes, your prices can command a premium, but Amazon these days has so many rules and regulations that many sellers get booted by Amazon bots when they do nothing wrong. The approval process is painful. They can hold your profits indefinitely until THEY feel safe to release them.... often never if they decide your product does not meet their terms. Selling supplements on Amazon would be automatic no go. Ebay and other platforms are also oversaturated with many products. Chinese these days import everything from Thailand. I find Thai products on Shopee shipped from Malaysia cheaper than from Thai sellers. The online marketplace is insane and to even start getting noticed you would need to learn about running ads which can be costly. This is just a word of warning because many Thais think it is so simple to sell overseas because Americans have money. Yes, they do and they were always my best customers, but for a Thai to make a profit would take a miracle.
  14. Yes. It works well. However, US postal system is sometimes lazy. Sometimes they do not scan the final delivery which may result in sender losing money due to "non delivery". But, most of the time it works very well. Your much bigger problem is that e-packet from Thailand to USA is not cheap. Supplements depending on packaging may be heavy. Online shoppers go for cheapest options and China delivery prices can not compare to prices in Thailand. I stopped doing direct shipping 10 years ago as even then prices were too high. Now I only do drop shipping from reliable merchants. There is simply no other way you can make money online right now unless you live in China or US.
  15. Pretty hard to make this accidental. I am not crying I am warning you, The quote implies I work for a Thai police and and taking payments in exchange for bribes. I
  16. I showed it to her once and she was genuinely confused by the topics discussed. I showed her some discussion items. For example she would defend the sunbathing temple chicks. In general she wonders why so many foreigners are suffering with visa issues and thinks Thai government is insane with all the visa rules. She was disinterested about extremely violent road accidents (she drives like a maniac). She thinks Chinese are more dangerous than Russians (she is Chinese). She doesn't understand why some posters are gloating about MG cars. She rolls her eyes at any mention of monks (she's a christian) English level - intermediate.
  17. No I don't miss Tesco and Lotut is the same low quality carp so who cares. I think some Yanks may have a point about British food. Tesco fine foods, rofl
  18. Finally someone who gets it without being sarcastic, of course
  19. I love these. Better investment than crypto
  20. Because you lived in ghetto
