moe666 Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Depends where you do your shopping. Its like asking what does it cost to live in Thailand thats an open ended question. Just start shopping around and compare prices is the easy way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masuk Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I'm about to rent a small place and looking for the same info. I have been told by a long-term resident that there is one store which sells new electrical goods which have been recently superseded at way below the price of newer models. I'm about to find which place this is, and if you send me a message, I'll pass that info on. Is it my imagination, or are TV sets here much more expensive than in Australia?

No, they're the same price here. And rent somewhere furnished, easier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackArtemis Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 If your ok with the Fiberboard stuff, you can get a Desk, a few "book shelves, a wardrobe, bed frame, and a decent mattress for about 20k A cheap pleather coach is 2-3k 5-7 for a cheap cloth one, 10-15k for something better electronics, that depends on the brand and what you need.

NancyL Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 The OP could check out the on-line classified ads of this site, plus those of the Chiang Mai Expats Club and the Chiang Mai Community Church. There are always people leaving Chiang Mai who have entire households of gently used stuff they are looking to sell at a reasonable price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, this time of year is a good time to look and check CMCC for garage sales. The rainy season seems to create an Exodus, many are missionaries.
