Popular Post andux Posted July 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) #2pricethailand is getting bigger on Twitter and Facebook, with people posting pictures of dual pricing signs multiple times a day, trying to raise awareness on the issue and warning tourists about places that have dual pricing policies. Many places have officially removed their dual pricing during the last few days, not sure if it was a coincidence or if it's the fear of bad publicity.

It would make sense to rename those so it reads: Long hair => $44.00 Short hair => $29.50 Karens => $79.99 Or something along those lines. I guess that's where that came from originally. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to pay the same price for a haircut as men do , get yourself a five minute grade two at the sides and a grade three on top . What hairstyle do you have anyway ? 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only female pattern baldness was as common as male pattern baldness. Then you might get a cheaper cut.

Popular Post lemonjelly Posted July 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2020 All for exposing the 2 pricing system in Thailand, but feel that Barrow has chosen the wrong moment to muster expat anger at the Thai govt; so many of us are hoping for a visa amnesty extension and upsetting the Pooh Yai in BKK ain’t helping. Barrow can be informative of what’s going down etc, but can be a bit of a dolt sometimes, bless him. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BobinBKK Posted July 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2020 I think public awareness of the two pricing system is very good and those doing so should be exposed and shamed. I also feel that if you see equal pricing we should post those pictures as well to advertise the good people so that we can patronize their business instead. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elkski Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I think all social media has a bigger impact now because people are at home with spare time. They are reading about possible travel destinations fot the future and so these social statements about the bad things in Thailand really hurt!!

checkered flag Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Simple. If the price is too high say thank you and leave. No need to argue and look cheap and foolish. We all need to handle this in a logical sane manner. Showing anger is considered bad manners. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffersLos Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 My last instance of this made me absolutely livid. I was in Europe and went to the cinema on a Saturday evening. My brother went to watch the same movie, in the same cinema, but at Wednesday lunchtime. I paid 3 times the price!!! Simply because of what day I was available! I was furious. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Henryford Posted July 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2020 I had a win at Nong Nooch in Pattaya this week. I got in free and my thai girlfriend paid 250 baht. Dual pricing? Even the guard at the gate laughed saying it was a first in Thailand. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but take a photograph of the dual price sign and tell Tripadvisor as well as the other travel sites. Public loss of face does work here. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
