ChesneyHawkes Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I got these prices from MBK yesterday iPhone6s 64GB Space Gray / Silver / Gold = 34,500 Rose Gold =37,000 128GB Space Gray / Silver / Gold = 37,500 Rose Gold = 39,000 iPhone6s Plus 64GB Space Gray / Silver / Gold = 40,500 Rose Gold = 42,000 128GB Space Gray /Silver / Gold = 44,000 Rose Gold = 46,000 As usual, once supply becomes less constrained the price drops quickly. I know that the supply chain is getting much better as the 6s in a lot of countries are available for delivery in less than a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arunsakda Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Got one in Tokyo (Ginza) Wednesday first day of "walk in sales". ( Still I had an reserved appointment time for pick up). ¥122800 = 37393 baht for the 6s Plus 128gb. If one is a tourist they can waive consumption tax at the store. Still had to wait an hour in the queue. Quite a racket Apple has going.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watcharacters Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Got mine yesterday for 1,069 Euros + 149 Euros for the Apple Care. Will get tax refund once traveling back to Thailand of approx. 171 Euros. I find your post interesting. I'd like to know where you bought your phone. Since you paid in Euros I'm wondering if your purchase was EU based. Did you get the Applecare from Thailand or was that bought elsewhere? How do you get a tax refund from Thailand? You have stuck my curiosity. How many GB did you buy with your phone? What I've been told by Apple in the past is if a person brought a phone to Thailand from the EU or USA it would not be possible to get it repaired by Apple in Thailand due to the different specs used in each region. Even a phone from Hong Kong I believe is not repairable with warranty service in Thailand. The words used by the Apple representative to me were a person needs to be very careful from which region he buys the phone and intends to use it. The last I knew it's not possible to buy Applecare for an iPhone purchased in Thailand. Has that changed? I'd like to hear of the experiences of others.

WorkingTourist Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 now you can use 4g in Thailand? what s the point to pay for an iPhone 6s when you can not use all of its functionalities In Thailand? just show off? Personally I am considering upgrading my 5s because of 3D touch (I’m an expert user so I will definitely get a lot of use out of that), the better camera (especially for lowlight situations), and the faster/instant fingerprint reader (I love this security feature, but it’s not instant on the 5s). I’m also swayed by the optical image stabilization, unfortunately only 6s Plus has it for video, but this phone is too big for me. So why are you asking such a cliché question, just to show us that you are indifferent to the latest trends? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought the iPhone 6s Plus Space Grey 128GB for 1,069 Euros in a Apple store in German on launch day Sep. 25 together with a AppleCare+ (2 years) only valid in any German Apple store. If my iPhone gets damaged by accident and needs to be replaced completely i pay 99 euros instead of 350 euros. AppleCare+ includes 2 repairs/substitutions each for 99 euros. The VAT refund I will get in any German Airport once traveling back to Thailand (or any other country) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watcharacters Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Ok, if that is what you believe. Let's talk again when you drop your USD1000+ phone and nobody wants to replace it for you. Good Luck with that. if you drop your iPhone twice, I don't think apple will give you a new one.better buy a nice protection for your phone that can sustain a drop. I agree with you about the wisdom of having a good protection case but regarding the Applecare Lammbock got, it seems you jumped from a FIRST TIME DROPPING THE PHONE TO A SECOND ONE. I personally believe if the poster should have the misfortune of dropping the phone twice, Apple will honor its commitment of replacing the phone for the 99 Euros. And please remember should Lammbock ever want to get phone support, he/she could call Germany on Skype and get it. I guess we all chose different levels of comfort.

mcfish Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 If you drop your phone twice then 100% without fail you will drop it a third time and maybe many more. The warranty will just buy you a bit of time but if your a phone dropper then buy a case, no buy 2 cases and use them together, its the best option and save 150 euros!!

I'd imagine next month they'll be selling them for around 27k. A 16 GB iPhone 6s in Singapore is $1,048 which is about ฿26,640. Both countries have a VAT rate of 7%. So yes, about 27k next month would be a good bet, as we’ll probably soon see Apple blessed iPhones sold in Thailand for about the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reenatinnakor Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 I'm in hong kong... Will Thai customs at Suvarnabhumi stop me if I buy 4 iphones to sell at mbk? Lol. I could say they are 4 my kids. And I have photos to prove that I have 4 kids Haha. But just scared they will confiscate them. Seems like I can make 25 per cent on top of hk price.

So legally speaking you should declare all four phones. No duty to pay, only 7% tax as mobile phones have zero duty attached. If they give you hassle you can quote HS code 8517.12 and it will come up as duty exempt. Now they could give you crap about getting a license from the NBTC before being allowed to bring them in the country but that's unlikely. Your only real concern would be proving the phones are not for commercial purposes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jharr Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Lazada now selling 6S, delivery claimed to be in 3 weeks. I'm interested in the 64GB which they have for ฿33,399. http://www.lazada.co.th/catalog/?q=iphone%206s%2064GB Based on the Apple store in Singapore I'd guess Apple in Thailand pricing at ~฿31,000 for the 64GB. Suggest people do their homework before buying a 16GB as except for the lightest user it is a poor choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baht vs Dollar means Apple readjusting the prices. 64GB 6 Plus was 32,900, so I reckon 33,900 or 34,500. If Apple decide to go for a full 10% price increase then something in the 35,900 range will come into play. If all iPhones have an official 10% markup on last year, the mbk phone prices won't look quite so bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got one 6s but the 6s Plus are very hard to order from the HK Apple online store here, it's like by 7am they are all gone! Maybe I need to wake up at 6am!

I land in BKK next Monday so will have to see what the price they offering at Tukcom is, but knowing my luck they will announce the Thai release date on Monday morning so I can only sell at cost!
