I found that most Shark helmets available in Thailand you can now buy super cheap on websites like www.bikebandit.com, prices start at 70 US$ (delivery charges are not that high also).

What about duty on those rascals? I need a new helmet and am hoping to spend less than 7000 baht. Last time I checked, the Sharks were about 15,000 baht or more.

I bought for my g/f a Shark RSF 3 Triax Full Face Helmet (from bikebandit.com) and paid in Thailand at the door in Khon Kaen 5500 Baht. The helmet costs by bikebandit US$142.93 x 30 Baht = 4287.90 Baht. So I guess I paid 1,212 Baht for shipping, handling and tax... what is almost 50% of the price of the most simplest RSF3 helmet in Thailand.

The best budget helmet would be the HJC 16 that is sold in the Southern big bike store in patong for 6-6.5k baht.
