I suspect it's a combination of too many distributors and lack of demand/competition. I've seen some other products that are 300%-500% above retail in the US is way above what any tariff would account for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of books and book outlets in Thailand but not many readers. My own chances of getting a book into the Queen Sirikit Convention Center are about nil I think. Even the bookstores won't touch it. It could have something to do with my pen name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous_Dog Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 We go every year with Jing Joe (well, twice, given she's 3) to make sure she loves books, which she does, On average I let her buy one book a week, And she does LOVE them, but requires a parent to be there (or granny) to be part of the process, thats also missing here DOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
