Second hand goods ??

[farangatang]

As l'm fairly new to town, l would appreciate advice on where around Pattaya l can purchase second hand household goods or of websites where same are advertised. Amongst many items, l am currently looking for a second hand working fridge or 2, a second hand working VCR player/recorder (not dvd) & a couple of those hang in the shower electric water heaters. lf any of u guys may know of any1 selling these, please let me know.

There's a second hand store on Naklua road at the corner of Soi 27. TV's, VCR, DVD, Microwaves, TV, Washers, cameras, all kinds of good stuff.

Look at the bulletin boards at Friendship, Carrefour, Foodland etc. And post a "want list" there as well. Also check the Pattaya Mail.

Depending on how long you stay, you might just as well buy them new. The cost difference is very small.

 

Water heaters go brand new at about 2,500 Baht

Fridges (Thai ones) 5,000 Baht

VCR (Phillips) 2,000 Baht

 

Second hand fridges tend to have gas problems and they need to be refilled. The overall costs justifies buying a new one. They also tend to show rust after about 5 years.

 

IF all else fails just ask your next barfine where to buy the lot. They always know where to find things on the cheap.

Just pick the east coast for Pattaya area.

I've seen many places along Pattayakland, Pattaya Tai, 2nd and 3rd Rd. Just get out and look around and another benefit is that you might bump into a cute TG looking for some action.
