Re: Ask us about Thailand!

lol at your doctor, she's definitely being a bit over cautious for you there. I think even if you are on a 2 week holiday it's fine, unless you have a weak stomach or something. You're just missing out on some really nice food. I think even if you really try to avoid the 'dodgy' food and the tap water then you will still have an slighty upset stomach for a day or two, everyone seems to in my experience.

And I can't imagine a day without 10baht fresh pineapple !

Re: Ask us about Thailand!

I'll try to be there for sure, a soup and a swim in the jungle sounds good to me

My CDMA is the nizzles also, it's my preferred grinding choice over my adsl line at the moment

Re: Ask us about Thailand!

Has anyone had items from Pokerstars VIP store delivered to Thailand?

I want to ship an IPOD with some FPP's but am hesitant to change my listed address to Thailand as technically poker is illegal here.

My guess is its not a problem but i wanted to check first to see if anyone has successfully ordered/received items from them while in Thailand.

Thanks

We don't send electronics to Asia. You would be able to make the purchase
on your own. Email the receipts and we will debit the FPPs/credit your
account within 7 days.

Thank you for the email.

Thai post variance I suppose. I wouldn't risk shipping expensive items though.
