Looking at the Ryzen Mini PC...... China = 11 - 12.000 baht + FREE delivery........... same mini PC make and  spec 21- 23,000 baht + delivery charge already in Thailand

 

Is the Thai sellers buying from China and doubling the price ?

 

Where would you buy ?

 

Probably here but a Lenovo or 2nd hand NUC or other well known mini pc. A lot of garbage on aliexpress has doctored the firmware to report different chipsets. Tbf that's the same on thai marketplaces too with 800baht android boxes that claim a 8 core CPU, decent GPU, 4gb ram, and 2TB usb pens for 199baht, all garbage other than reporting initially that you got what you paid for, even the android version is often doctored.  If you're buying a 5k mini pc, just as a media PC, and don't care that the i3 really is a fake but underneath a legit celeron then that's probably fine but buying a high/mid end ryzen from a chinese marketplace no way.

A surge in cheap Chinese products flooding Thai markets, particularly through e-commerce platforms, has prompted Thai authorities and organisations to seek measures to protect local producers. The influx has negatively impacted local small manufacturers of household goods and has boosted calls for the Revenue and Customs departments to expedite their efforts in controlling this wave of low-cost goods.

But banning these goods might infringe on Free trade agreements.

Suck it up Thailand you can't ban all competition to sell your crap all the time.

Thais don't even make a lot of things, I just brought a pair of house slippers, where most of these 'ships from overseas' so I brought them from a Thai supplier printed on the bottom is "Made in China" as with many many things, Thailand just does not make them.

not a very good answer if you want Thai..

 

Lenovo Group of China is the world's largest maker of personal computers. 

 

NUC also has the address Shenzhen, Guangdong, China.

 

So what are   - 'other well known mini pc'.  ?

 

As a matter of interest     the CPU Ryzen 7600X is made in china   !!!! as are many others. 

AMD in 2022 took the made in in Taiwan labels off.

 

? Maybe try the USA  guess make in Mexico via USA website?
