Leftover goods from celebrating International Talk Like a Pirate Day?

Or perhaps adherents of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster stocking up on supplies?

They must be gutted.

 

Expecting Gucci handbags and all they've seized is Roger the the cabin boy and Semen Stains.

So, where will the police sell this stuff? 

And there I thought I'd receive my 200 Baht authentic Vuitton pillow ????

 

It was 98% off mind you, I just have a knack for good deals ????

So, pirate products, not pirated products. So, like sabers, rum, replacement pegs for peg legs...stuff like that?

Don't forget parrots!

 

I'm sure they found all of the above in those trucks!

arn't most products pirated in markets?

 

seems like a lottery whether you get caught and made an example out of

Heavens no, not unlicensed Doraemon.

 

Out here in the Issan sticks Doraemon is quite popular with the kids. Stuffed toys, backpacks, t-shirts. None of it's officially licensed. It's the same stuff seized here, commonly found in the night markets.

 

The only officially licensed Doraemon I know of is at the Miniso in Central Khon Kaen, hundreds of kms away, and costing several times more. 99% of these kids can't and won't get it.

Wonder which country the manufacturing is located in ?

One guess ...

This has the whiff of window dressing after the medical gloves scandal….

After every copper involved flogs a duvet and a stuffed toy or two for their Mia Noi, the balance will probably get sold back to the original owners after a "bond" has exchanged hands.

How many eye-patches, peg legs and hooks to screw into the hand area were confiscated.  Wonder if there were any glass eyes seized as well.....

All they have to do is look at Lazada if they want pirated goods from China.

Just got a total useless SD micro card. Nicely packed, but worthlessness.

I felt the need to correct your spelling....that's "Seamen Stains"

I saw these trucks heading down the 7 motorway being escorted by DSI vehicles.

 

Wondered what they had in the back !!

For want of a "d" as a final consonant the journalist has errantly transformed what should have been a transitive verb into a noun.  It could have been worse - he could have phrased it as an intransitive verb and then we'd all be wondering where the pirate's ship was and where did he do his pirating.

Well won't they get 40% of the stuff for free just like Joe Ferrari and his cars.

Let me guess..... coming from China?

 

Soon, it will get easier. When the high-speed train from China reaches Thailand.

I promised GF that I invested heavily in her and her family rural Isaan.

 

All dressed in genuine designer clothes.

They moved up the respect ladder in their village.

And we even perform hi-so protected sex with the "LV feel like heaven" condoms.

We even invested in hi-so pork.

They sell for 376,000Baht a piece.

Better then Bitcoin.

Don't say that.

It took my whole team to load it on the truck and send it over to you.

And after digging deeper in "Ferrari Joe's financial affairs", they discovered that he is not as wealthy as pretended.
