Online orders from Shopee, Lazada - easy for hotel-based tourist?

[henrik2000]

Hello, is it easy for a foreign tourist staying mostly in hotels to order online from Thai online shops Lazada, Shopee or others?

 

I do have international Visa credit cards, PayPal and an AIS prepaid SIM card, but no Thai bank account and no “pay by scan”.

 

How long do they usually need to deliver? Are their delivery date forecasts reliable? Is Shopee or Lazada easier to use for a dull hotel-based foreigner? The delivery address would be like 

 

To Mr XY

℅ Hotel YZ (room number may be unknown at time of ordering)

Postal Code, Town

 

In one case i have a private condo rented. 

 

I mostly stay in small places like Tak or Phetchaburi and sometimes I need bicycle parts, electronic accessories or other stuff that is not at all available locally, or in questionable quality only, but easy to find on Shopee and Lazada with huge variety and nice prices.

 

Thanks for your experiences, please remember i’m a newbie without a residency in Thailand!
