Where to buy...beans only...no bag...well a plastic bag to carry them in would be nice.

Bangkok Chinatown, Rachawong between the Grand China Hotel and the Rachawong (sp?) Pier is where I bought mine. Paid 200 baht for a large lawn and leaf sized bag. There are several stores on the street that sell them and they come in different bead sizes. Bought 4 bags, no problem. (Only needed half of them as it turned out)

Had to take a tuk tuk home because they were way too big to fit in a taxi. Tuk-tuk, big problem. The guy was nice enough but took me on a scenic tour that took over an hour to make what should have been a 10 minute ride down Rama 4. His loss since the falang price was set before we started off on the miserable journey.

BTW if you're around Asoke (Suk Soi 16), I have 2 bags left that would be free to a good home.... Can't stand to see them go to waste, but they've been taking up space for way too long.
