Title: Looking for help to buy from Thai website
Post by: Starie on February 28, 2015, 09:47:27 PM
Hi there, I'm looking for someone (probably/ preferrably from Thailand) to help me buy this from a Thai website:

http://portal.weloveshopping.com/product/W23455284

I tried looking for Thai shopping services but all I got was recommendations for Thai restaurants lol  :P

Any help is greatly appreciated!

If it's just kogepan you are looking for, why not look on ebay or japanese webpages?

Haha no I know, it's just this specific plush is really hard to find, its from a UFO machine and retired long ago. I collect rare(ish) san-x plushes and only seen this guy pop up once on yahoo japan. So when I found this I figure I'd better pounce now, since I have no clue when it'll pop up again  :)

Just a heads up, Thai post can be VERY slow. I sent something to myself while in Bangkok, and it took a month on airmail to get to me at home!

Good luck!

ah, gotchya.
You can set up an alert with yahoo to email you if the item you want gets listed. It's easier then checking daily.
(eta: it looked like the last one popped up 12/06 for only 380yen so maybe it'll pop up again soon)

I don't know if this service is trust worthy... but maybe it's worth a shot?
https://www.facebook.com/thailand.shopping
http://www.personal-shopper-bangkok.com/ (their site)

the other site I found looked a bit better but seemed to be for clothes only.

the croissant is cute , good luck!

I was not aware of the alert option, that's going to be so useful thank you!

And thanks for the shopping sites, I'll look into them
