German Airline Lufthansa Bans Apple AirTags On Flights
Firefan replied to webfact's topic in Thailand Travel Forum
I will NOT travel without my pet bee! -
I checked their homepage and found nothing about it - more importantly - I need it in Bangkok with cold shipping, and doubt they (cold) ship it.

I till recently had delivery from North Thailand of frozen/chilled 2L jugs of of raw goat milk and kefir (Facebook ad) but currently no supply, so am looking for an alternative to order same online from anywhere. Does anybody know where I can get raw goat (or cow) diary products? (I found a very old archived thread here about it, but it was all outdated). I am Bangkok based but am willing to pay for cold shipping from anywhere.

I have yet to find a quality multiple locally here, and still order from Iherb and Vitacost (have great synergy series) even if sometimes gets caught in customs. Rather random as I keep purchase under $50 but SOMETIMES they add the shipping, and other times they do not - and most times it just sails straight through. PipingRock is good too, but their multiples are not up to the NOW Adam multi the OP requested.

I am aware that AIS (and others sell 1 year pre-paid Simcards/plans. Example from Lazada below: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/ais-ais-the-one-sim-ais-marathon-ais-15mbps-1-100gb-1-a-lot-i1395498609-s3566684413.html?freeshipping=1&search=1&spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.i40.3e313892vVpBeD This is much cheaper for most of us living here - but can it be added or changed from to a plan/number I already have? Why do I see the options NOWHERE on their homepage OR in MyAIS on my phone? Why does it need to be bought from re-sellers like Lazada and Shopee Etc.? 1400 Baht for a year is a bargain (Incl. some free calling Etc.) compared to the 400 Baht or so I pay per month currently. Anyone that can answer some of my questions?

Tax ID # Question?
Firefan replied to ricklev's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I do not know about the number of digits in the tax ID but remember there is ALSO the "Thai" ID format for foreigners from the yellow book or pink ID card that I believe is 13 numbers? You might be mixing them up? -
Is a Thai licence required for an electric bicycle?
Firefan replied to giddyup's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
No. But in the future for sure - especially with the high powered motorbike looking types out there. -
Good news! MTT did not have a decent coffee - and I need that for my visa related trips! Hit rock bottom and had to get a Nescafe 3in1 there ????

I just bought $200,000 of Bitcoin
Firefan replied to Pravda's topic in Jobs, Economy, Banking, Business, Investments
I just checked todays rates. You bought at what corresponds to USD 44k/BTC and as I type this it is a USD 41k/BTC so not much has changed (down 7% or so). I am also in BTC and other coins, and wish you the best of luck. Consider putting your BTC with one of the platforms that pay interest for your BTC. THat can help off-set some of the downside, or boost profits. Like Youhodler, Nexo Etc. Cheers! -
Same here. 2 products but from same seller in China. Took a month or so for 1 to arrive, and then that same email as OP received. I presume seller was out of stock to not send 2, and now package stuck at some key border point OR the seller just have not re-stocked and send the 2nd product yet - but updated the system that it is shipped. That then leads to auto email about "closed border points" from Lazada.

Thank you. I presume the mentioned form to fill out is at the entrance then? Also: then I presume one can not just do own ATK test and bring proof/photo, but it needs to be at a clinic/hospital before? How recent? (My vax status expired as missed booster - so not fully vaxed yet so looking at above options)

Ordering a Lenovo ThinkPad - 4 weeks...
Firefan replied to OneMoreFarang's topic in IT and Computers
May have found that the "minimum amount" (they will only tax amount if above that) for tax purposes is $50 - that is for sure the case for supplements/vitamins and also several other groups of goods - but not all. -
Last year I went to Chang Wattana for my annual visa renewal and only covid related extras was the sign-in and temperature test at the building entrance. I hear that got tightened up, and that they requested more for a while - but that might well have changed again by now? Can anybody update me on what they were requested with regards to covid. Be that at the building entrance and/or at the actual (annual non-o in my case - but presume same) visa extension desk. Cheers!

covid Visa extension Denied

Yes, they sometimes add it as extra verification.

Ordering a Lenovo ThinkPad - 4 weeks...
Firefan replied to OneMoreFarang's topic in IT and Computers
You are both right. Yes, DHL Etc. will (almost) always charge, and they will add a much higher handling/service fee - so that is where the difference lies. Taxes are the same (and can ofcourse be disputed should they not match the customs tax book that no one would ever want to try to read ????). Cheers~ -
Scratched up laptop - where to get a new skin/sticker
Firefan replied to Firefan's topic in IT and Computers
My computer is fine and not much more than a year old - just some cosmetic scratches I would like sorted. Was surprised not to easily find a place doing skins/stickers Etc. at Fortune despite asking around. Almost certain I have seen it there before. Seems to be an obvious business. As for the Lazada one would have to install and in some cases even CUT it oneself, which will become at cheap looking mess quite quickly with air bubbles, dust, folds Etc. Cheers! -

Firefan replied to Firefan's topic in IT and Computers
???????? that thing looks like the Hulk has used it as a frisbee! I care about how my laptop looks - especially if I pull it out at a professional meeting. Yours looks great for a hobo dinner table by the oil drums though! ???? Cheers!
