For general merchandise, I like Penang Market, Klong Toey.

Take the subway to Queen Sirikit and the walk south, just past Rama IV Road.

Sampeng Lane, Chinatown, is a great place if you want to buy bulk.

It runs parallel to, and just south of, Yaowarat Road (Chinatown's main street).

pantip plaza is for computing

mbk is for everything + a great selection of phone stuff upstairs

siam discovery is top end: check out gold class cinema :o

chatuchak is the biggest weekend market of them all

one not mentioned for good general shopping & also has a good market next door for computing, phones & clothes is the mall at bang kapi

Penang market? Where is that?

Best place for Mobiles is MBK, national stadium skytrain station, walk into the Tokyu dept store, go up to the 5th (?) floor. It is all mobiles as far as the eye can see. Pantip for computers can also be reached by taking the skytrain to Ploenchit (right?where the World Trade center is) and then cabbing it up to pantip plaza. Try to get off Sukhumvit with the skytrain and then, if you need to, take a taxi because the traffic on Sukhumvit is a nightmare!

What I would like to know is a good place to get reasonably priced second hand books in Thai. My husband loves to read but there are just no books available here at all. It is really hard to find good books in Chatuchak,

Bambi? Any suggestions?

I've been in the 2nd hand book section in Chatuchak. Where across the road? From the 2nd hand book section or near another one?

And where is Tor Kor market? My husband is Thai and loves to read but finds new books to be expensive (he's a bit kee-neow, really but I love him anyway:))
