bkkandrew Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 (edited) This magazine used to be stocked at Asia Books on Sukhumvit between Sois 7-15. They have not stocked it for over a year and, despite me asking many times, seem not to be interesrted in doing so. Does anyone know anywhere in Bangkok that sells it?

Insight Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Villa at Soi 33 also sells it, at least when I last checked a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkkandrew Posted October 24, 2006 Author Share Posted October 24, 2006 Update: Bookazine (Grasorn - Chitlom) Have, but out of date... Villa - No Off to Silom tomorrow.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meerkat Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 (edited) Why not get a subscription? I used to subscribe from HK and got the issues by airmail quicker than they arrived in the shops over there. I saved a bundle too. If you haven't got a CC, you can ask someone in the UK to "gift" a sub to you over here instead. http://www.private-eye.co.uk/ Edited October 25, 2006 by Meerkat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StateSix Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Villa at Soi 33 also sells it, at least when I last checked a few months ago. Na - keep looking there when I pop in for a few bits. May have simply sold out I guess.. Will check later, Cheers I am sure they still sell it, I saw it a couple of weeks ago. Not with the main magazines near the tills, but with the newspapers at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_Traveller Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 (edited) Private Eye is available from Bookazine, {most branches} but it nearly always arrives at the end of the fortnight's validity. It's also tucked away with the newspapers rather than the magazines.

andy1308 Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Hi, You might want to try Kinokuniya in either Paragon or the Emporium. They seem to stock a pretty wide range of titles, although I must admit I haven't personally seen Private Eye. Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkmei Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 I thought I saw it once in the magazine section (7th floor) of Central department store Chitlom - but I don't want to send you off on a wild goose chase! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuestHouse Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Just imagine for a moment ... A Thai version of Private Eye.... Now think..... Thai Spitting Image. They'd have a field day... until they got themselves shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chavalit as a dottering old fart was especially funny. Edited October 25, 2006 by ColPyat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live 2-weeks here, 2-weeks UK, so every other issue I buy from UK.. Thanks though, I had considered this and just binning the duplicates..

Not with the main magazines near the tills, but with the newspapers at the end. You know you are actually quite correct - went there this evening and saw one copy tucked in with the "Sun" etc. Trouble was it was the out-of-date one, same as at Bookazine in Grasorn, Chitlom. The one that expires on 12th October... Did not make it to Silom, nor the other places as have to fly tomorrow and was busy... What a shame, I always find the the "Eye" makes flights go more smoothly. The only problem is my giggling at my favorite bits, when other passengers wonder what I am laughing about! Thanks for all the pointers though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
