manarak Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Any suggestion of illegal substances or breaking rules regarding import regulations for "personal items" or allowances, and this will be CLOSED.Importing for the purpose of resale without a license is already illegal.The following is from Maestro 's link "The dutiable items are intended for personal use; They are at a reasonable quantity and not intended for commercial use, business, or trade purposes; The total value is not exceeding 80,000 Baht; and Passengers are able to pay taxes and duties in cash on the date of arrival. " Let's say one can change his mind later or bring the stuff for a friend :-) No need to be an extremist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chonburiram Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 To make it more practical, 50baht, where are you going in Thailand? Where do you leave from? When? Are you able to pre-finance? Buy something and try to sell it on good luck, isn't going to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they still not have the Levi wall in Pattaya ?? When I lived there--the back of (the original) big C was taken over by 100s of Levi's draped over the wall there. Yes most were 2nd hand (nice & faded--)-- but some new & near new. All original , 15 years ago --they had the button up ones when you could only get a zip ones in Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chonburiram Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) Just re-read you are coming from the US... what about Ray Ban / Oakley shades? 1bottle good, aged Jack Daniels?, 200 original Marlboro cigarettes? a few (short, foldable) buck knives? Leathermans? Think about quality, people here have money and are bored with the rubbish Chinese/Thai stuff.

richard_smith237 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Some technology not yet available in Thailand may be profitable... but its also a grey area. A couple of Thai friends brought back some iPhones - the profits from a few of these helped contribute towards their airfare... The success of this is highly dependable on timing and existing availability in Thailand. If the soon to be released iWatch is released overseas before its released in Thailand, it may sell for a premium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
