The DVD shop next to Jok Sompet...

...has it closed down or relocated?

I went there a week or so ago and it was empty. There was no sign in the window saying what had happened, so I was wondering if any CMTVers know what has happened to it.

I went to this rental shop 2 weeks ago because I noticed their sign advertising Blue Ray rentals. In order to become a member you need to pay 1,200 baht. On top of that there is an additional charge for renting the DVD. I don't remember how much but it was overpriced IMO. I'm sure some may disagree but for the price, the selection wasn't that great either.

I'd much rather leave a deposit of 1200 baht and pay a reasonable fee for the rental.

One good point that I did notice was that you could reserve a movie and they would leave it on the shelf with a "Reserved" sign on it.

the quality of DVD downloads is crap.  i still rent.

What is the value of old, even broken, CDs?  I noticed that Rimping in San Sai has a box for collection of old unwanted CDs and i cannot imagine these have any value to anyone.

 

Insights?
