The Big Mango Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) Two main shopping centres , Central Festival and Jungceylon. Google those and your good to go . Might have trouble with the segway though. For a more local touch try the weekend market in chalong. Again google and thou shall see :-) But for shopping if you can the mrs would love all the mega malls in Bangkok Edited August 15, 2015 by The Big Mango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hkt83100 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 (edited) If the link takes you somewhere near Somalia, don't blame me, it a matter of the software which cannot handle reasonable links.

They will be 60-100$ more expensive than direct chinese factory but still cheaper than all resellers. If unit is defective you will receive your money back from their cash processor.

fiddlehead Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I always do some Christmas shopping up near Lam Prom Thep. Those little shops have something that is very hard to find here: Size 6XL! (yeah, I'm American and need some of those for gifts)And great prices. So, yeah, go to the malls, and find the higher priced stuff, but if you want cheap, Chang beer shirts, or I love Phuket shirts, fisherman's pants, or souvenirs of Thailand, check out the bargains up there.And do a little hiking while your at it and head down the path to the southern most point of Phuket. Much more fun than going to Starbucks at the mall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
