ush: No idea about pricing in Thailand but ouch it sure is expensive in Philipines and I thought LVs in Oz are expensive. But I'm sure your parents will enjoy all the yummy food over there yummmmm

I was in Bangkok on the 1st of this month and had bough a Taiga Billfold with 6 Credit Card Slots from there for 12600 Thai Baht which is equivalent to 336 USD. I got around 5% cash back as VAT refund. The same wallet is listed as 305 USD on eluxury.com. Dont have Bany idea whether any tax payable on top of the eluxury price. Basically to a tourist the wallet costed 318 USD if bought from Bangkok while it will cost 305 + tax if bought from a boutique in the US

^^ How is the procedure of the VAT refund? Is it immediately deducted before payment at LV or is it refundable at the air port?

In Hongkong, the LV price will be cheaper than in Thailand (around $30-50). The price in Bangkok is also higher than in US. I just asked about Onatah leather 3 weeks ago, it was around $1750.

I just don't think that you should buy LV or any luxury item there, it's expensive.
