Bangkok Reports

[SexIsLove]

Thanks Man. I guess I wasn't the only one who ended up paying so much there. I will explore more options you suggested next time.

I was reached out by 4 other gentlemen (Message) who had similar similar experiences in Thermae.

I think this is more organized scam like thing going on there.

Fixed price.

Short Service.

Drama and leave.

Since, they are doing part time in a place frequented by tourists, they really don't care about their reputation as long as they get paid.

Thanks for your advice.

Actually depends on the girl have picked up some long term gems there maybe about 30% were great. Prices have ranged from 2-3 K for short time. Long time add another 1-2 K plus I may tip.

Had a wonderful time with bar, escorts, massage and web girls over a week. Visited Nana Plaza, Soi Cowboy, massage houses. Did not want to go to Pattaya.

Girls were beautiful, nice, clean, polite, want sex, some even loving. We really made love.

General Thai population is genuinely nice, gentle, respectful, tolerant.

Best Beef AYCE AYCD Korean grill on the East end of Sukhumvit is an excellent deal for $10.50. Also a few other AYCE seafood grills for cheap on Yaowarat and Huay Khwang China towns. I was eating big every night. Grab taxi rides are cheap to everywhere, only $1-3.

Will take a couple Asia noobs for a 2-week tour at year end. Will be very sexy and lots of fun.

Fancy seeing CS in the Thailand forum. I trust you didn't come across any smelly vaginas in Bangkok as we find in Tijuana LOL.

What are you talking about? You'd think they be cheap here, but they are not, never has been for as long as I can remember. For at least 20 years. Labor is cheap, but tech equipment is not.

Lenses were cheap pre-covid.

Now they are not anymore. I used to bring new frames (bought for cheap on internet) and make the lens in Thailand and would get the lenses at a quarter of the price it costs in my own country.

Last time I did it was in November last year, prices have gone up dramatically, they didn't even have the Seiko lenses anymore, they put a Thai brand.

It's still cheaper than my country, but the quality is not that good, I don't bother anymore doing this.

Get out of Thermae. Too much of a sausage fest even with the dozens of ladies, most of whom are lazy and think they're Christie Brinkley in her prime. Try some street FL or go old school down to Patpong, other FL haunts, try the bars and Nana Plaza. Use TF. I find the same girls quoting 3000ST at Thermae that strike out are often 1200-2000 in the afternoon or one lady quoted me 3500 for 2 hours and everything, ended being Bht 4000 for 6 hours of multi pop awesome sex with a semi pro who goes to Thermae. She inferred there is kind of a "union" atmosphere to keep prices up at Thermae. So haggle or try a unique approach. All is fair in WAR. Pic attached of girl. Also a lot of the ladies talk about Asian men just paying what they want (Koreans and Japanese).

Initially I met the FL lady at Thermae, meh. Then saw her on TF, she recognized me. I offered her a gig as a sugar baby for good Baht per day. She said no, too much hassle (she gets $ all over), I thought for a few days, came back to her and she said 3500 for 2 hours. We met. I told her to bring a bikini. Went to the pool, had 3-4 drinks. Went back to my room gave her 1500 upfront. She blew me, I ate her. Covered sex. Gave her another 1500 Bht, she ended up staying for drinks, dinner and more boom booms. She left by 7 and I guess she went to Thermae or home. Who cares, now she is on my regular major league roster. Indeed a SP. Tipped her 1000 for 4 k LT total. And I never tip or pay up front. But changed my tactics cause this one is educated and still doing her 2nd degree and needs cash.

I banged that girl out of Thermae, she isa regular there.

Get a prescription, with interpupil distance, or you can measure it yourself.

Order any frames or lenses on eBay, bifocals, polarized, colors ect, shipped to your address, quick, good and cheap.

Chinese Titanium frames are very light, strong and comfortable. They put all other brand-name designers to shame.

My vision is too precious to trust to eBay.

[TConor]

I appreciate your suggestion and will look into it the next time I am in BKK!

Not the USA where those mall glasses shops are 1/2 price Thai prices. Go EU! 555.

[Rodwint2]

Some years ago, I lost my glasses on the beach and my hotel concierge recommended me an optometrix. It was amazing. I got some silhouette glasses within 36 hours for 30% of the price in Germany. I am in BKK next week nd do it again.

It was more or less right beside of my hotel. The oriental.

I appreciate your suggestion and will look into it the next time I am in BKK!

I bought a lot of good Nikon frames 15 years ago on Ebay and use those. Unfortunately, the current availability of lenses in the US seem to be limited and Costco / Sam's Club prices are rather high for just lenses.

Has anyone had prescription glasses made recently in Bangkok? Years ago, glasses were cheap to get made in Thailand. I was looking at replacing the lenses in my current glasses and was wondering if anyone had done this recently. Also, I was looking at getting a pair of glasses made with polarizing dark bi-focal lenses. Any recommendations or suggestions? Thanks for any assistance.

I have been with a couple of people looking for perception eyeglasses recently and we wound up going to a place called OWNDAYS. There are several locations in and around the lower Sukhumvit area. You can do a search for the Bkk locations. There is one across from Central World inside the Gaysorn Village mall at the exit to the skywalk across Ratchadamri from Central World. I think there is one inside Central World mall too.

They have a promotion deal for eye exam to determine your perception needs + lenses + frames for 4500 baht all included and they are done in 20 minutes. The frames you choose from for that deal aren't going to be the fanciest ones in the shop but there are several styles to choose from and the quality seems to be very good.

I can't say what the deal would be for polarizing dark bi-focal lenses because none of the people I was with inquired about something like that at those shops.

[Belvaros]

I would recommend against traveling with a bar girl.

Amen, 3 days max for me even with regulars I know. The whining and constantly being late, constantly wanting $ and attention, or no attention or! At # is painful.

[Belvaros]

I get your point and you are right.

I can be a very shrewd negotiator when it comes to business or bargaining if the seller overprices, but when it comes to this, I need to better.

So, what's the amount that I should pay for Thermae?

Because the other girls also quoted the same and were not ready to budge.
