I am trying to find websites in Thailand for comparing prices of electrical goods but do not seem to be able to open anything (not even Central). I am in the UK using google, should I use a different search engine and if so which?

Cheers

P.S. I hope you are all having a great time at JW's.

In my opinion, without a shadow of a doubt, the best search engine on the market, without exception is Google. Google uses a (patented) page rank system to deliver its results, and is the cleanest system on the web. Don't bother with any other.
Most problems on searching comes with wording the search. Google for example dose not recognise words such as - it, to, or, the, and so forth...... Try wording the search concisely and logically, ie - electrical shopping Thailand.

Thanks I have tried that but can't find any sites that quote prices or info, only general about shops or complexes.

Here are a couple of sites to get you started. One is for general electrical appliances and such, and the other for computing products. While they will give you an indication of local market conditions, I cannot vouch for the competitiveness of their pricing nor their delivery capabilities.

Also they may be deleted by a moderator as being against HHAD rules on posting web sites on this forum. I'm not sure.

Wrong.

It is against the rules to post competitors or real estate websites on this forum.
