stumonster Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I am thniking the same , a 37-40 inch LCD television might be a purchase in the next month or so. I have been looking at the Samsungs as I am very happy with the 19 inch LCD monitors from Samsung I have now. ( was in panthip yesterday and saw that the 22 inch widescreen Samsungs are 10900 baht - was very tempted ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion shops like Powerbuy and Homepro etc are all in a big price fixing cartel. Prices are always identical, even the special offer prices are the same. One way they do seem to compete is with 'free' gifts. Wish I new the best place to go for those big electrical purchases. Maybe the internet especially if you can read Thai?

stumonster Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) tesco lotus has this on its website http://www.tescolotus.net/tab/productscate.asp but I do not have a use for a "free" mp3player and I imagine the price incorporates it somewhat. has anyone been to the comtech show at the Queen Sirikit Centre ? do they have good deals there ? and the websites for the major retailers , BigC , Tesco , and Carrefour are woeful - in this day and age of online connectivity you would think that they would have a listing of just about every product they stock and specs - but just being able to view what looks like a scan of their latest brochure in a small jpeg seems to be the norm. and powerbuy looks just overpriced.

TonyLeung Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 selection of all electronics in bangkok is so lousy its depreasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 Wish I new the best place to go for those big electrical purchases. Maybe the internet especially if you can read Thai? A large selection can be seen here > SinSiamElectronics On each item they will usually show "Special Price" at the bottom where you contact them by e-mail. Seems from 5-10% can be dropped from the listed price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tororoso Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 any good links to LCD television deals at commart 2007 at the Queen Sikrit centre ? ( especially Samsung ) Sorry, Stu. No links, but what I saw yesterday was that Samsung had promotions like including a free LCD monitor (or home theatre, not sure) for every purchase of a 40" or 42" LCD TV, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 any good links to LCD television deals at commart 2007 at the Queen Sikrit centre ? ( especially Samsung ) I wouldnt bother, I went there this afternoon and all the stalls are selling the TV's at the same prices you would find in Powerbuy, and in some cases more expensive that you would be able to get them for. Keep an eye out for sales, Tesco surprisingly is the cheapest option so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sniffdog Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 In the soi next to Big C Ratchadamri there used to be a couple of specialized electronibs shops. Give them the best price you've seen and they knock off another 2%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfokevin Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 (edited) Be very careful... shopping for price will lead you to disappointment long term... Educate yourself about the technical aspects - I would focus on native resolution... Very soon ALL movies and such will be in HD.. (Remember the VCR)... make sure that any TV you buy now will be able to handle HD resolution content... also I would make sure a computer will hook up to it where the resolutions are compatible... Ex: netflix.com will let you download/watch any movie now... Soon all US TV content (ABC,CSB,NBC,FOX...) will be streaming on the internet... This is the wave of the future... make sure your TV can handle it Edited November 3, 2007 by sfokevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
