doingok Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 i guys, as you know the wife wants to buy stuff whole sale and has heard of guy in Nathon that sells to the hawkers on the beach i.e bikinis, dresses, and so on very cheap all i know up to now is that he sell from his big house in Nathon so before i have to go on the beach to pay one for these girls to take us there does any one know him or of him. p.s yes we went to Bangkok but didn't get a lot there as i had very bad food poisoning from Cambodia we only had a day really to buy stuff before we have to leave and this guys sounds like is sells everything ? cheers paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtom Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 (edited) Haven't heard of a man selling from a big house, but I know that some beach vendors buy their stuff cheap in a shop in the Nathon 'middle road', the one between beach road and ring road. She is known as 'the muslim woman' and makes very good prices, for farangs and retailers alike. She has mostly the standard stuff you find everywhere in Thailand though, nothing modern/stylish/fancy.

koheesti Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 When I first read the title I thought you were talking about something other than clothes. I don't know about in Nathon, but every time I walked along Chaweng Beach and one of those hawkers approached me the would mumble names of various drugs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokie36 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 I'm sensing importation of counterfeit goods and a confiscation of large amounts of your stock. I did this back in the 90's from Goa a few times...one time the t-shirts we sold had run in the wash turning everything pink. No repeat custom for a while after that run!

Sorry for my stale info. In case you find him and don't mind sharing the name/address, a Thai friend of mine would be very interested to know 'the man'.

marstons Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) if you really want to know its proably best to get a thai speaker to ask them, or even pay them to show you. have you tried alibaba on the internet, as example type in fishermans trousers, it will list all manufacture's and contact details of whole sale suppliers, you can then contact wholesale ditibuters that way, some time direct to manufacturers. thailand is not the cheapest place for clothes now day as you probably know, Alibaba will list thai dealers but also chinese. just a thought. but the guy in nathon will be bringing it down from BKK so its another cut out the product and i doubt no matter what he will sell to you the same price he does the beech sellors no matter what, the fact your a farnag he would probably sooner loose the sale then let you have it at the same price. again if you find out send a thai in to do the negotiating. i think many have looked into this but when you check out the stuff on e bay, i certainly could not get near the prices being sold on there already.

Everything (clothes,textile stuff) being sold on Samui comes from Pratunam, Bobe, etc. You should really get things done in BKK rather than Nathon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

insertmembernamehere Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 If you want to buy wholesale is that to turn around and sell as a street vendor here? Don't you have to go through some, er, hoops to be allowed to do that? Of is this the same "man" you need to do some palm greasing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
