Medicine Man Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 So burn them creating an environmental issue rather than donate to a needy cause like hill tribe villagers or similar. More crazy logic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Tracy Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Fake goods are destroyed world wide. Incineration is the preferred method. An appropriate company with appropriate safeguards on their incinerator is the appropriate way to go. I know not if this company has these safeguards, but I expect they do, and I also suggest no one here knows otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickudon Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 At an average price of under 250 baht, not faking anything worthwhile. And fake bankets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donut21 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Look on line and see the fake goods being sold via the WISH site. I understand it is an American company having goods delivered direct from China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJRS1301 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Oh look at the "low rent" tourists with LV luggage at the airport, you know there is no way they would have gained admittance to the LV shop. Customs should spend a day or two at check-in confiscating the goods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
