    :welcome:

    Welcome to the forum. Import of vape gear into Thailand has been banned recently so most of the B&M suppliers have become very wary. Perhaps one of our Phuket members would be able to PM you with some information but since this thread is open to the public, such information cannot be posted here.

    Enjoy your trip to LOS and vape on!

    No real vapestore in Phuket.
    A thai has a small shop opened saturday and sunday at the big week end market (naka market near phuket town Naka Night Market - Shopping heaven - Saturday/Sunday - Review of Phuket Town Night Market, Phuket Town, Thailand - TripAdvisor ). His stall is near the animal section (south east corner).
    His selection of gear and juices is not really great to be honest. But the market is pretty fun to visit anyway.

    Actually, I'm not even sure his stall is still opened. He used to update his Facebook page quite frequently but hasn't touched it for more than a month now. You can try to send him a message. He can speak a little english. https://www.facebook.com/pages/บุหรี่ไฟฟ้าภูเก็ต-ราคาถูก/571177076251983

    Does this mean I should cancel my unshipped fasttech order? It's just 2 attys and a box mod clone, but better safe than sorry.

    I personally received my last FT order without hassle containing 2 VV batteries, 2 tanks and various bits and pieces (received after the ban took full effect).

    Just keep it low priced so if it is indeed seized you can just walk away without being too pissed off.

    Good advice! Ask them to use generic descriptions and a low declared value. Only use first class mail for shipping...no premium delivery services like DHL, Fedex, UPS or EMS.

    I'm in Phuket now and have asked around some but no luck with anyone knowing where any vaping supplies may be located. May be too late to do now but if you are from Malaysia I would recommend going to one of the many vape shops in KL before coming here and get your things there.

    Are you sure that import of vape stuff is banned??
    I was asking in the Bricks and Mortar vape shop in Chiang Mai, a few days before the ban and they seemed to say that sale in Thailand was banned but still ok to import from outside.
    Sorry if I am totally wrong.

    Yes, we're sure...sadly. Have a look at this thread.

    So, would you say that online Fasttech is also not an option?

    FT still seems to be ok...don't use any premium delivery services (EMS, DHL, etc.)...registered first class mail with generic descriptions and low declared values...YMMV

    FT is good to go, labeled as 'electronic components'

    got my stuff at the beginning of the sales ban.

    Thanks for the info about FT--I had put an order on hold, but based on this news, I have taken a couple of items off hold and they are 'Ready To Ship'--fingers crossed.
    **Updated**
    One more question--and this probably isn't the correct thread to ask these queries--but, some are saying Only use First Class mail and others are suggesting the much longer Surface Mail option--I went for the second, should I try to change it to the former??

    @haybilly Make sure it is the registered airmail (singpost) otherwise it will take weeks/months to arrive!!
