Popular Post Tropicalevo Posted January 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 17, 2022 Probably sold out so quickly as people are buying them to re-sell at a later date - at a higher price. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lower priced tests have all sold out in local shops It's still surprisingly easy to find kits in the 50-70 baht range around Bangkok, but I haven't seen anything being sold as cheaply as these GPO kits. If they really wanted wide distribution, though, they would sell them individually or in the usual packs of 2-5 pieces that every other brand has, not boxes of 20 - those seem to be specifically engineered to be convenient to resellers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superal Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 This is a little misleading IMO , why ? Because the sell out is due to traders buying them in large numbers and then to be sold off individually at 3 or 4 times the original price ( a minimal markup ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharron Merrilees Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 We can't get hold of them down here in Oz either. Our bunch of clown's that call them self a government, are telling us to get out and get rat test and test your self and family 3 times a week but at Aud $15.00 a hit not a problem, If the UK but the & USA can hand them out for free why can't they heel we are in the top 5 highest paying taxes in the world. anybody that would want to come to live or holiday need to be in the million's .
