terrychris Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I was looking thru some online classifieds to look for businesses that are currently selling in Pattaya. The usual bars for sale,many Irish bars,and visa offices for some reason,but also saw not one but 2 jetski businesses for sale in Pattaya. Is 5 million baht with 8 jetskis,rent to the maritime authority,turn over is 400,000 baht a month. So this month its irish bars,visa services and jet ski business;s for sale. I really do fancy enquiring more about the jetski business,anyone fancyforming a consortium,by the way the owners details were all in farang names so it seems farangs may be the owners.

striderman Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 yes somebody pointed that advert out to me. couple ( everything ) of things seem a bit odd. it mentions 8 ski and 3 employees. just how would u get them from bali hai pier to the beach and recover them at the end of the day.? why would anyone want to sell a business for 4.5 million when they are collecting 400,000 plus a month? how would u get any money off the staff who judging by most of them on the beach are hardly trustworthy? and how long would u be in business for before immigration showed up? how long would it be before u are swimming with the fishes if immigration was having a busy day?

Encid Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I would have thought that a farang trying to compete with the Thais running in the jet ski business is not going to get very far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrychris Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 i DONT know about the troll bit accusation. i suppose you really are the troll for saying im a troll yes sounds too good to be true but has a farang selling the business so maybe it could be run by a farang.

William Osborne Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Ok.. look at this way... You are a farang living in Thailand with an established business, making a profit with a high turnover.....you have to ask yourself why would such a person then sell this business... easy enough to hire a reliable manager to runs things for about 30k a month if wanted to take things easy..

Boyce Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 With all the bad publicity in Pattaya, about the Jet-Ski scams , why would the OP even post this type of business for sale , on a forum in the first place, it don't make sence to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
