Fire at East Pattaya Auction House



PATTAYA: -- A fire took hold at an East Pattaya Auction House late on Sunday Night which is thought to have caused an estimated 500,000 Baht’s worth of damage.

7 firefighting units were sent to the fire at the Pattaya Auction House in Soi Chayapornviti and it took just over 1 hour to bring the fire under control.

Good to have insurance, since nobody is buying

The only auction place I know of is Collingbournes, but presumably this is some other place?

There are 2 auction houses in Pattaya, I think this one is run by an Englishman.

7 units to bring the blaze under control?? That must have been a huge fire.

The Auction House that caught fire is the competitor to Collingbournes. It is further north, the turn off nearer to Pattaya Neu, still on the dark side though (no pun intended).

I have been in touch with them often about selling things, but they never replied to my requests. Their catalogue seems to

have the same things in week in week out, so, as somebody else commented, they are probably not doing much business.

Not being a conspiracy theorist and having found no information how the fire started, I just hope the clients' goods are

covered by insurance and that the business will still be operating after the clear-up!!

Can't let Mr Collingbourne have all the fun, can we?

What can we buy at these auctions places when they do not burn ?

The fire did not ​damage any of the contents, it affected a small business that is in the same building, so no conspiracy here! Seems that no one that replied to this post has never been there.

Your correct, so silly of us to believe the headline that says Fire at East Pattaya Auction House when it should have said Fire at a small businesses located in the East Pattaya Auction House

So Kittenkong is right.......there's just one auction house in Pattaya...5555
