I got my PS2 chipped in Fortune Town too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkkjames Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 UmmmWhere is Futune Town?? I wil be staying in Pratunam... Is this close?? Fortune Town is no more than a 10-15 min taxi ride from where you are. Do they still sell stuff at Pantip Plaza? Might be easier for you if they do.

DP25 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 UmmmWhere is Futune Town?? I wil be staying in Pratunam... Is this close?? If you're staying Pratunam just go to Pantip. You can probably walk there in about 5 minutes. They have everything you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wca01 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 MBK is Mabooklong. The shop is on the 4th floor near the escalators. Cardless control for 490 Baht is a good price. If I can find the business card at home, will give the shop's detail tomorrow. WCA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
