  1. I concur, best buzz out of 6 different types of weed in front of me, best price too.
  2. Thanks for your reply. B290 lost is fine if it's just B290 once, but this will be my 6th or 7th order from a different supplier and I've been let down a few times, so it's a few hundred, a few times... I'm curious why you suggest negotiating for 100g when I've never purchased from them before? Not only does that sound a bit iffy, but it's starting to annoy me how much plastic is being used as packaging for all this new product. I recently bought 5g of kief and it arrived in 5 thick plastic test tubes! So if anything, I'll order 20g,try it out, see what my experience is like with the shop, then purchase more if it's any good.
  3. I'm just about to give the 20g pack a go, but before I buy, I just wanted to ask if you've purchased from this shop on multiple occasions?
  4. I'm looking at a dynavap convection heater, but apparently you have to order through line, despite the product being on their website, I'm wondering why that is? The product is actually cheaper here than back in the UK, too. Any recent experiences?
  5. I had a very similar experience, ordered 3g, received only 1.5g, they promised to send the remainder but never did, which was a shame as the kief I received was excellent! I told them they'd lost a good customer and they replied with 'ok'. It seems the art of Thai customer services lives on in the smokers world too.
  6. We've got polished cement floors in our rental, and whilst they got damaged in the 2011 floods, they still look a million times better than most other floors in the land. I had a hose detach itself from our pressure washer yesterday, the hose sprayed water absolutely everywhere, our polished cement stairs turned into a waterfall, the water half flooded downstairs too, and after a little mopping the water had almost vanished, with no damage whatsoever. We use non-slip mats from makro in the bathrooms just to be on the safe side. But even whilst mopping up the floor never got slippery enough to bother me. So yes, use polished cement flooring, it's nice to the touch, it's durable and it looks lovely, and any damage it does get will just give it character.

    Coffee

    This is interesting, as I often leave the cafetiere for the washing up pixie(s) due to utter laziness, I'm sure my washing up pixie(s) would appreciate an easier job, I'll see if I can get one that'll accommodate my 400ml morning coffee. I'm actually travelling to the UK this week and I've got a stainless cafetiere on my shopping list which I'm really looking forward to! But this drip funnel - if there are no disposable/replacement parts required - could be a welcome addition to my morning coffee ritual.

    Coffee

    I, too, used to drink instant coffee here, I think it's because back in the UK everybody around me drank instant coffee, nobody I knew had a coffee machine or even a cafetière/French press. I decided I wanted to cut milk/creamers out of my coffee and the only way of doing that was to drink 'fresh' coffee, so I headed down to my local Foodland, picked up the cheapest ground coffee I could find, went to Ikea and got a cafetière(cheaper are available now on Laz/Shopee), and I've never looked back since. I've tried Boncafe, which is nice, I've tried imported African ground, which was disappointing, I've also gone random in Foodland and tried some more expensive ground coffee, but nothing compares to my old faithful - Duang Dee Hill Tribe Coffee It costs B99 for 250g, the flavour is amazing, it may not be the coffee connoisseurs' choice, but it's a million miles away from that instant muck, plus there's zero sachet/pod wastage. So, for a low cost foray into 'fresh' coffee, try this first, you won't be disappointed, not for taste, nor price.
  9. When I done this trip a few months ago there was an 'overtime' charge, the officers said it was because I was crossing on a Sunday, but when I returned during the week the 'overtime' fee still had to be paid, tricky bleeders. I had an evisa but still had to stop at the visa window for the officers to process the visa, so it's not really worth getting an evisa unless you're unable to find crisp US dollar notes.
  10. Can you imagine being in such a position of power that you can actually make your money grow by telling people to grow your money for you?
  11. This too, sheer genius. Most commoners would imagine the water doing that job by itself. I suppose it's why he's paid the big bucks.
  12. Cheaper units may end up hot, my last experience was with a Pax 3 and it was not hot at all, but then I don't use high power and I don't need clouds.
  13. I'm not confused at all, I don't go out much, but it'd be nice to have somewhere local to browse. I order online already.
  14. Thanks. Sai Mai is NE BKK, I'm in the West, as I said above. I only go out to buy food locally, never socially, and never cruising around looking for weed, and anyhow humans annoy me too much to go out out.
  15. Despite the less positive results you got out of the experience, I'd still like to know the location of this place, as not only do I live on the wrong side of bkk for these things(west) but I'd also like to get stoned for free, I joke, but seriously, I'd love to have somewhere nearby to pop into to test a gram of this or a gram of that...
  16. I hadn't thought of that, it's highly possible, especially as the following quote from another poster says they use their Krungsri debit card in 7eleven...
  17. This is the problem, the inconsistencies. Does your debit card have both the contactless & the chip on it? I ask because I think if you were to just tell the counter staff that you were paying by card, they would push a button on their screen, tell you to either insert or tap your card on the reader, and you'd be away. As it doesn't matter to them if you're using a credit or debit card, as both have contactless & chip.
  18. As if by magic, Krungsri just notified me that I could apply for a card through the app(the service was immediately unavailable however), but I got these screenshots to share; When I used our credit card at 7eleven I just tapped the card reader, I'm assuming I'll be doing the same with one of these cards, as they mention in the 'Features'. I think it's been so long since I had a debit card that this feature simply wasn't available then, which may have been part of the catalyst for us getting a credit card, but I'm glad this is available now, as the B480 it'll cost over 3 years is minute compared to the amount our credit card was costing us!
  19. Prawit's time keeping is second to none.
  20. Me too, I'm asking specifically about over-the-counter payments, which I have been unable to do with most previous ATM cards issued to me by around 8 banks in 20 years here, thanks.
  21. Things may have changed then, I'll pop into the bank tomorrow and see what they say...
  22. Some other people can't use their debit cards at 7. Just to clarify: You use your Krungsri DEBIT card at 7eleven? Not your Krungsri CREDIT card? Would you mind showing me which card it is please? I don't mean your actual card, I mean a link to the Krungsri website where they're offering a debit card that can be used to make over-the-counter payments at places like 7eleven etc. Is it this?
