user564545 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 These pirated products are worth 49 million baht.. Is that the street value of the pirated copies or the value of what they would be if they were real. As the RTP are prone to using the figures which make them look better I would presume that the real value of the haul would be worth nowhere near 49 million baht.

I honestly, honestly misread 'confiscates' as 'confesses to'. I must have been here too long, expecting what it might be about to say. It wasn't wishful thinking.

Customs will usually give the MSRP of what the genuine goods would go for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
