It is really expensive, not fake. Textbooks are basically 10 times more expensive than in China, and the price of ordinary reading materials is 2 or 3 times more expensive than in China. A Japanese comic series costs at least 10 RMB for a small volume with just a few sheets of paper. A well-known one such as Pirates costs 100 Baht, which is about 20 RMB. Books are a hugely profitable industry, but why are they so expensive in Thailand? Maybe it’s because Thai people don’t like to read books, so they can’t sell them!

According to statistics in 2014, the average daily reading time of Thai people outside of work and study is 37 minutes. This reading includes reading paper books, newspapers and magazines as well as electronic reading materials, such as Facebook content and LINE official accounts, etc. The sum of the contents.

First of all, Thai people don’t like reading. Secondly, except for textbooks, the prices of books in Thailand are basically the same as those in North America. Textbooks are cheaper between 80 and 250.

It is indeed very expensive. In fact, mainland China may have the lowest book prices in the world. I am talking about pricing, and buying online is even cheaper.

I prefer Ikikuniya, and I went shopping in Bangkok. The Central World store did not have Chinese novels. The clerk pointed me to the Paragon branch and drew a route map. I bought the third part of the "Millennium Trilogy", 670 plants. I can still find the entire trilogy in China.

The recommended things to buy in Thailand are as follows:

1. Hamp; M’s clothes are 20 or 20% off domestic prices, and tax refunds are available for purchases of 2k baht (rmb400) or more ( tax refund) and many activities. Zara's prices are more expensive than in China and there are few events. 2. Most aromatherapy essential oils are very cheap. 3. King Power (King Power Duty Free Shop), I buy jeans from Lee and Li, basically 3 to 400. And Lin Zhenxiang’s meat floss (strongly recommended by relatives of overseas Chinese in Thailand) is extremely cheap and delicious. Every time I go back to China, I buy 5 or 6 packs to eat myself and give as gifts to relatives. King power is the cheapest.
