Lite Beer Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Dirty business: Used panty shops mushroom on Facebook, draw online backlashBy Praj Kiatpongsan BANGKOK: -- Sometimes, products being offered in the Thai online marketplace can trend toward the bizarre. While buying used, women’s underwear is a longstanding (if odd) sexual fetish, the rapid proliferation of online shops in Thailand offering this product marks a new twist for the world’s sexual economy.Isra News Agency released a report this morning about the phenomenon of women selling their panties via Facebook, which has quickly become the most talked-about topic of the day.These Facebook shops insist that the shop owners wore every piece of underwear themselves and deliberately left them unwashed so that their odor continues to linger. The price for a pair of used panties ranges from THB200 to THB400, excluding post fees.

Pib Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 This could be a new source of Classifieds/Advertising income for ThaiVisa....should be plenty of ThaiVisa members with highly valued personal collections (in their own minds) who may want to sell off some of the collection in order to buy some new selections they have been eying.

rkidlad Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Nothing illegal about selling used knickers, but no doubt the government will find a way to ban it due to a threat to 'national security'. I've read this is popular in Japan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai at Heart Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Hot topic of the day. Thais having a fit over selling used pantie, is positively wholesome over hundreds of thousands of them selling themselves? Isn't it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pi Sek Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Nothing illegal about selling used knickers, but no doubt the government will find a way to ban it due to a threat to 'national security'. I've read this is popular in Japan. Some foreign chaps in Samui that I know had an idea like this mid-last decade. They were going to advertise in magazines like Loaded and bought the URL "thaigirlsknickers.com". They were going to sell used knickers in boxed packaging with a "certificate of authenticity" where the girl explained the events of the last time that the knickers were worn, and mail them around the world for US$25. It sounded like a sure-fire money-maker! Pensit & Laws told them it was not illegal, but not to do it. If they were going to do it, Khun Perasit (the senior French-speaking lawyer and MD of the firm) told them to do it with absolutely no foreign connection or risk deportation on "cultural" grounds. They didn't go through with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rubl Posted June 24, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2013 I think we have here another opportunity for female Pheu Thai MPs or their wifes to profess their utter disgust in the sales and promotion of used Thai female undergarments. That is assuming they have finished with the NokAir calendar :-) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GentlemanJim Posted June 24, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2013 Reports are in this evening that Chalerm is proposing a way to prop up the losses from the failing rice scheme. He is proposing that a new 'Knicker Pledging Scheme' be brought into effect immediatly. The Government would buy soiled ladies knickers for 1200 baht a pair. Farmers daughters who wear the knickers all day whilst toiling in the fields would be paid 1400 baht as their underwear would qualify as Grade A1. A1+ can be achieved for two to three days continuous wearing of the apparel. Asked what types of knickers would be appropriate he said almost anything really, from G-string to French to pantyloons, but gusset-less knickers would open up a hole in the market that may not be filled'. Knickers could be stockpiled until a world shortage would enable the commodity to be sold off at a premium price, perhaps including free of charge with each pair a small pack of Scotties for Men extra strength tissues. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post pedro01 Posted June 24, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2013 Here's what I don't understand. I'm a 34" waist and that's about average, most Thai girls are way smaller than that. So these panties wouldn't fit most men anyway. What would be the point in ordering them? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RKASA Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 The problem I see with this is the corruption of a long standing tradition. You don't buy or sell them nor do you steal them. If she doesn't give them to you then they don't belong in your collection in the first place. If this is allowed soon they will be buying and selling used bra's and other things. If you want a good pair of panties then you should be man enough to go out and get them the right way - we have standards that must be upheld, or we may as well be animals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarangTalk Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 A friend of mine had this idea 15 years ago and made some decent money from it. He stopped selling them online several years ago after investing in other more salubrious businesses. It is still a hot topic of conversation when it is mentioned in a bar.

I've read this is popular in Japan. It's hard to believe there's a market for this in culturally superior, morally upright Thailand. No doubt the Ministry of Propaganda will be able to prove that morally bankrupt foreigners are the only ones involved 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickBradford Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 Putting a range of used underwear on Facebook sounds like the ultimate Visible Panty Line. The pricing of 200-400 baht sounds a bit elastic. Maybe it's 200 baht for the no-frills version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberduck Posted June 24, 2013 Share Posted June 24, 2013 sounds fishy to me Even more fishy is guys wearing girl underwear and selling it as worn by girls, popular extra income amongt students in my country. The buyer thinks he is smelling girls underwear but actually worn by a guy, most won't notice in their exitement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
