My wife has bought quite a bit of Hilltribe jewelry mainly in Chaig Mai. She is thinking about starting a small business selling such items, also pieces from India and Bali. Can anyone tell me if there are any wholesale outlets forsuch .925 silver in BKK, I saw a post that said there were a number of outlets off Siom Rd, is this a good place to start?

From what I have seen the places around Khao San sell crappy stuff noit like the solid Hilltribe stuff. The wholesale prices fro the later vary so it pays to shop around. A few years ago I was quoted (by a good friend) 10,000 baht per kg.........then at a recent trade show was qutoed 15,000 baht for basically the same stuff. Shop around.

Turn right at the end of Silom: Charoen Krung Rd (aka New Road).

there are two major location in bkk - khao sarn rd and charoen krung. most of shops sell silver per gram - plain silver, silver with CZ and semi precious stones and with precious. I think chiang mai stuff will fit in simple silver category at 12-15 baht per gramm, surely not higher.

so, pick your stuff, weight it and make right decision to open a shop.

cheers

How would anyone know they were getting the "proper stuff" and not something of an inferior quality? Just curious to know.
