why not call them and ask first. Maybe they have some kind of transport service or similar? or maybe they can tell you that something you want to fix or to buy is can not, no have. I have done that with an Acer PC, sent to Acer repair branch Surat Thani. Even to Bangkok,a huge 80 kilo TV fixed there for, can't remember, a few hundreds transportation cost from/to Sirikit

Well, thanks to Eric1949 thumbsup.gif he's given me a lead of a place in Lamai, that might be able to help, so will follow up on that first....

The helpful guy "Khun Paint" , at Ibeats store, Chawang, did some phoning for me, yesterday, first BKK then Power buy in the new mall... in Surat... so it's a case of taking it over... I brought the monitor at Powerbuy in BKK....

Will try Lamai shop first and see what they say! (and post where it's located, if successful ! )

No good computer monitors on Samui, anywhere... so hope can get this fixed... here.... or sad.png ...

I have just got back from OZ so have not had the chance to go there yet although we have a townhouse nearby. My good lady tells me that it is expensive.

I've got the 24'' Acer Full HD touchscreen from Tesco Chaweng. Didn't trust much from the electrical dept. of that dep. store, especially by looking at their flat screen TVs on that wall in the back, but the Acer is very, very nice and so is a also very, very nice wireless brother all in one printer. Good quality, many functions and both things work without any problems.

Hi,

For those interested a video of the current construction

of the Central Chaweng, at the place Chez Andy used to be. Times are changing.

All we need now is the long awaited bridge from Samui to Surat.

it should be named after Arnold swartinigger. Called I'll be back !

and it should be a drwar bridge with knight proteccting it,

With cheer leaders in the middle

Does anyone have simple written directions to the Central Department Store in Surat Thani for someone unfamiliar with the Donsak area (and who's directionally challenged in general;))?

When you get off the ferry at Donsak, head to Surratthanni, on the main road.... keep going until you see it, on the right side, .... several signs en route ! ..... You'll then make a right turn....It's just about on the corner....

Quite easy!

It's not in the Donsak area.

Suratthani town, about 1 hour drive from Donsak.

Just as you get into Suratthani make a left turn, this will take you past Big C, keep going follow the road and you will see Tesco Lotus on your right. At the next major junction go straight across onto the 417 and its just the other side of the river bridge.
