mesquite Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I'm not so sure you'll be able to make much of a profit as you will be required to pay import duty upon arriving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

50baht Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Someone suggested Fat man clothes ? 2-5XL. ? That makes sense. I find 1-2 xl hard to find for myself in Thailand and rather expensive when I do ? Stuff is rather cheap during off seanson sales in USA. No sales and no VAT tax on clothes some states. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst large sized clothes here are expensive I reckon they will cost more in the USA once you calculate the airfare into the pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. Wine and alcohol in general can cause HUGE problems and huge fines with Thai customs, so best to avoid it! The XXXXXL clothes and shoes are a good idea, and I also do think there is a crowd of buyers. The ironic thing being these clothes were probably shipped to USA or Europe from nearby Bangladesh, Myanmar or Vietnam and then they will be flown back to Thailand, 555! I'm trying to think about stuff that's expensive in Thailand, but it's mostly food so it doesn't have a high value per volume/weight. Swiss pocket knives might be something.

BigBadGeordie Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Tom Yam Goong...Agreed, hard to source here, have seen may copies on S'vit, but never managed to pick up an original one. The movie you're talking about, right?Come to think of it, the soup, good quality, is equally as hard to find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manarak Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) I think we can add razor blade refills for hand razors to the list. This is actually a good item, because it is small, light and quite expensive here. Edited March 25, 2015 by manarak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
