Reduced tax on alcohol starting to take effect

[digbeth]

Finally seeing some price lowered in store shelves, 

Some French Champagne are now 2,000 baht compared to around 4000+ of before, last time prices were this low must be decades back

but now some brands are still holding on to the old price (old stock maybe?)

 

nothing on Australian wines or Scotch and other hard spirits yet

Is it possible that you simply saw a sale price?

 

The manifestation of the reduced taxes should be reduced prices on imported wine across the board.

Thailand's alcohol law means they can't advertise the fact that it's on a 'sale' or 'reduced from previously...'  a sale would come in the form of temporary price change, then back up again

 

Talked to the girls and they say it's not a 'sale'

The situation isn't as simple as we first thought. Here's a blog post that explains it in more detail.

 

What happened to the promised tax break and lower prices?

Not sale price. Is the new standard price
