Ikea Is Giving Out Their Catalogue!

[charlie007]

Was told that IKEA will have a catalogue give-away event tomorrow at Hard Rock cafe siam square.

--

For those who can't wait for IKEA store opening in November, IKEA will be giving its catalogue on 30 September 2011 in front of Hard Rock Cafe at Siam Center from 11.00am. If you miss the event or don't want to leave the comfort of you home, go to their website at http://www.ikea.co.th to request for a catalogue to be delivered right to your door.

Good bye SB, Index. Hello IKEA!

[lazygourmet]

Oh come on please...

Just methinks: Ikea + Hard Rock Cafe = double lack of taste

And waiting on Siam Square for a free catalog, will make that triple...

[kartman]

Who will have the better boats SB or IKEA ?

Can they go for the quadruple whammy and queue for a Jesus-device iThingy at the same time?

Great…..I leave Europe……and it follows me out here!

Am I the only one to think, (I don't know) but with this being Thailand…and even Mickey 'D' is seen as Hi-So. Do you think the prices will be reasonable? I don't, I think it will be viewed as Hi-So.. So High price. I may be wrong, maybe.

'Charlie007' are you as excited as you come across in your post, or are you being ironic? I really can't tell.

Can't see where you can order a catalog...

[jingjingna]

Same here..nowhere on the website is there a 'request catalogue' option

Can't see where you can order a catalog...

[Farang0tang]

Yeah - where's the bleeding catalogue button?

[gurnani]

seems like I am not the only blind to find "request a catalogue" button :

[TallGuyJohninBKK]

Dunno about the catalog... But passing thru the Asoke BTS station today, it seems the opening day is being advertised as Nov. 3... So mark it on your calendars...

Here's their web address for a bit more about tomorrow's/Friday's event:

So if it ends up high price maybe there will be a grey market .

is the OP working there and posted an internal limk?

Personally, I can see Ikea as being Hi So! In Thailand no one buys furniture that they need to put together themself..it'll be a case of Hi-so buying the stuff and then getting a handyman in to assemble it for them!

[TallGuyJohninBKK]

And their web site map of their new location in Bang Na:

http://www.ikea.co.t...-ikea/location/

And here's their English language home page... The address above wasn't correct.

http://www.ikea.co.th/en/

I see a place in the upper right hand corner of their web site to register for email updates from them... But I don't see anyplace on the web site to request a printed catalog.

I posted a question on - https://www.facebook.com/IKEAThailand - and their reply was: "We have online catalogue register start from 3 October in our website www.IKEA.co.th to receive catalogue at home ka."

I must be living in a different Thailand because all those tent furniture shops don't sell anything other than furniture in a box,same with the supermarkets.

[janverbeem]

No..........................post the same question on 3 November and you may get a different answer.

[zzaa09]

More cheap commercial crap passing off as quality.

Trendy and fashionable. Selling the indoctrined name and [questionable] reputation.

[up-country_sinclair]

I hope the OP returns with information about how to get a catalogue.

[mortenaa]

I hope the OP returns with information about how to get a catalogue.

You can order the catalog from their website, starting on Monday 3rd Oct.

Amazing to see just how bored bangkok expats are when they get a flushed with the news of an ikea catalogue comimg out.

I get this way when the new tv guide comes out only to be left slightly disappointed that its the same pizza promo from the month before.

However, all is not lost, I eagerly anticipate the hords of locals carrying them on top of their ipads for all to stare at in envy on the skytrain. Not quite as face gaining as a box of krispy kream, yet still enough pulling power to get an extra long glance from the diy wannabes commuting back and fro to work.

[Rinrada]

are they doing the = of the 99p breakfast?

Our local in Edmonton (not burnt down in riots) do it and its great ...pig-saus-eggs -toms -beans...yeum lau...as they say in khmer..

[Ricardo]

Hope they have Swedish meatballs

med potatismos & gravy !

And those chocolate/oat-balls covered in shredded-coconut, and the big-packs of biscuits, and Swedish-crispbreads, and Lakerol, and open-topped prawn/egg-sandwiches !

I suspect that the sting-in-the-tail will become apparent at the check-out, sadly.

Edit to say ... almost forgot Glogg !

[craigt3365]

Though interesting, one inappropriate post has been removed from view.

[katabeachbum]

Hope they have Swedish meatballs

[samran]
