Thailand is a country where your dollar goes
extremely far. There are two reasons for this. First is that every US dollar is
equivalent to approximately 35-40 (depending on market) Thai dollars or unit of
currency called the Thai "Baht". Second is that certain items in
Thailand are produced there by hand and the wages are very, very low. For
example Thailand is known for the finest silk in the world. The silk worms are
farmed and the material is loomed by hand. Hence you can buy HAND
TAILORED
CUSTOM MADE SUITS, SHIRTS, AND TIES, (for both ladies and men) in the latest
fashions for NEXT TO NOTHING. We have relationships with the best tailors
in Thailand and will connect you with them. Click on the link to see clothier's
brochures. Thailand is also known for the highest
quality GEMSTONES in the world (except for emeralds-Columbia holds that
distinction) and labor being cheap there, they are cut and ground at a very low
cost and therefore can be purchased at ridiculously low prices. For example; you
can purchase a 40 carat amethyst of exceptional color, for about 1/10 of what it
would cost you on Jewelers Row in NYC or Philadelphia. We have ongoing
relationships with the largest jewelry and gemstone manufacturer IN THE
WORLD (with more than 2 thousand employees) so that you get the best deals
and don't get ripped off like so many tourists do! There are many other commodities that are
available in Thailand that can be purchased at huge discounts over import stores
in the states. Things like GOLD INLAID LACQUER items from nick-knacks to
furnishings for your home. All kinds of 14, 18 and 24 carat gold Jewelry at huge
discounts over the states. Silks in every imaginable form, like tapestries,
scarves, and wall hangings. We are in excellent standing with many vendors
mainly because we have resident staff that live there, speak the language, and
know the culture of the vendors. This insures your purchases are not rip offs
and are the best deal that can be made. We have an impeccable reputation with
these vendors. Please see the rest
of our web site, especially the FAQ's. |
