You are not making any sense. How many pieces do you think Amazon has in their warehouses? Their price is the cheapest. Try to buy it in a store in Italy and you might be brought to tears. Here a similar product in Italy; https://olico.it/it/1438-filetti-di-acciughe-in-olio-di-oliva-in-latta-720-gr.html 1053 baht If the price was 450 three years ago, that means that MAKRO Thailand bought it more cheaply then. Now they are paying much more. So again, if that product via Amazon Italy is 783 baht, for how much would you think MAKRO Thailand should sell it? 750 baht? You think it should be cheaper than Amazon in the EU?
-
What has that to do with anything? We are discussing MAKRO. Private sellers everywhere can charge whatever they like.
-
Seems that went right over your head. Let me try again. The price in Italy, via Amazon Italy is 783 baht. How much would you expect it to sell for in Thailand after importation cost etc?
-
Thai owners huh? That's 783 baht in Italy. I can assure you that there are even more expensive options there. Best you grab a couple at 900 baht whilst you can.

But your whole premise is quite silly. You are discussing One Plate meals. If you want a normal sized meal, you order the rice separately. A Pad Kraprow with prawns at my local comes with ten big prawns and costs 120 baht. Why would you consider buy three or four plates of rice?
-
Where have I complained? That's you complaining about small portions. Are you for real? 😊
-
Fried rice with prawns in my local has five big prawn; 70 baht. Find a better vendor.

Stop it...

Don't be silly. Three or four...😊

Trending upwards? What are you talking about? Give me an example of such a product in Thailand. The fact is, that unless you are going to the markets every day, you will have no idea of price fluctuations. Straw mushroom prices, for example, can vary almost from visit to visit. Will you be happy if the vendor gives you a different kind of cheaper mushroom that day? Sound like a 'middle class problem'. Run such a business yourself and you will understand. Try to be more understanding.

Of course what you suggest is quite ridiculous. Fruit and vegetable prices are seasonal and customers, other than yourself it seems, do not react positively to price rises. If the price of bell peppers is 100 baht per kg and 140 the next, but you don't know that, will you be happy being charged 10 baht more for exactly the same meal that you had on your previous visit the week before? Do you think the vendor has the time or inclination to explain to every customer that the price of bell peppers has increased? Just a simple example. If a worker allocates 50 baht for his lunch everyday and suddenly without warning, the price is 60 baht due to a fluctuation in the price of ingredients that very day, how do you think that would go down? People prefer stability, if that means slightly reduced portions from time to time, that's the accepted way. Everyone's portions might be a little bit smaller when the cost of ingredients goes up.....with the exception of food sold by weight. Otherwise they will be eating into their margins.

Yes, my suggestion is to stop the nonsense of using a VPN to search airline websites for flights. What's the point of that? Inflated prices...😊 You can instead use a scraper such as Momondo or Skyscanner to see what is available for particular dates.

That's a bit of a leap that you've taken there. Not every news article has a picture of the event taking place. It might just be of the location where it happened. The picture they used has a random motorcyclist in it. The location goes some way to explain why there are a lot of women staying there and awake at 2am and also why the pervert has chosen that spot.

I did share, it's a clicky link below the picture of the tools. I also indicated where you could send it to get it done. Better to trust someone who is experienced with Surface. -

What fresh nonsense..... 😊? Are you comparing Samui to the UK and EU? A tiny island compared to a country or continent? How about comparing Thailand, the whole country and including it's inhabitants. It happens much more than you allude.- 91 replies

Motorcycle taxi drivers brutally beating tourist caught on video
NowNow replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Dear LL, you are being pedantic. How would you like to quantify 'all the time'? These are figures of speech. Then we have your pedantry with regard to another members spelling of the short form of paedophile. You are just here to argue childishly. I prefer to not involve myself with such nonsense. So, unless you have some useful to contribute, as opposed to uselessly arguing for the sake of it.... -
