sweetchariot 1 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 You think you will make a living charging the occassional punter 30 baht an hour? Go back to the drawing board would be my advice. Link to post Share on other sites
ClaudeFeller 14 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 You think you will make a living charging the occassional punter 30 baht an hour? Go back to the drawing board would be my advice. Thats not what he wants to know. Try Nathon middle road, there is a large computer shop, owner speaks good english. Try to get 20 % discount if you order a lot. Link to post Share on other sites
Chayaphum 8 Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 (edited) ...for Computers, go to Rawadee's Computer Shop in Lamai (ITC Area). Nice Girl and every time a good service in english language. More cheaper ......go byself to BKK/Panthip Plaza and buy there what you need.... good luck Chayaphum Edited January 12, 2008 by Chayaphum Link to post Share on other sites
worldwebwide 0 Posted January 13, 2008 Author Share Posted January 13, 2008 Thank you a lot for your advice. I think it is better buy from samui because for after sale repair if i have problem, so it is a little expensive but it will good for the service and make local company works. What about of buying at Lotus or Big C, they are good price too ? Link to post Share on other sites
Chayaphum 8 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 ...after sale repair.... please check about service before you buy in Tesco/BigC. I think, there you will get just 1 week or 10 days guarantee with the original bill from the store.......after this time, if they can't help you in samui.....the computer has to send to bkk anyway to the dealer/distributor or factory for repare or replace. Real guarantee or responsibility/liability in thailand is anyway no't an easy life Dont' believe everything what the sales staff tell you! Many of these staff has no professionell-knowledge or just speak something good (sweet) to you for sell some products...(just interested for make revenue, not service) Chayaphum (i know about what i am talking here, that's reality not fiction) T.I.T.

kevbap 1 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 last i knew Gringos had a decent pool table, that Kirk the owner was selling. Have you tried the pool table shop south of Nathon? Good luck Link to post Share on other sites
baanthale 4 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Like someone said already, computer shop on middle road of Nathon is really good. Bought one computer from them, built on place, 17" flat Dell monitor, some intel processor, 1gb memory, 160Gb harddrive, Asus motherboard, Lg dvd dl burner and a basic key board for 16,000THB, even got 20 dvd pans included Not had a problem so far with this one, but have been there with other computers a couple of times, and they fixed problems on spot, without delays, free or dirt cheap Regarding Tesco and big c, Yes warranty doesn't exist, and I also think their stock is not to impressive, most no-name crap Link to post Share on other sites
worldwebwide 0 Posted January 13, 2008 Author Share Posted January 13, 2008 Thank a lot everybody, i'll go to nathon to check. Do you know the fastest speed ADSL on samui ? Link to post Share on other sites
Shrubbery 14 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 This is a suggestion only, so please no barracking. How about offering cheap calls via the internet. Link to post Share on other sites

sbk 2,064 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 I think Claude Feller's post was pretty comprehensive in covering any issues the "grumps" may have with the original post. Link to post Share on other sites

ClaudeFeller 14 Posted January 13, 2008 Share Posted January 13, 2008 Thongkrut area has NO internet cafe at all, and enough of young kids to let you know every fashion online barbie-dancing and egoshooter game in a short while... dont forget the headphones! For Inet computers you dont need any good hardware quality... Link to post Share on other sites
