as far as i know most western countries it is the law to put the price of a used car on the car ( dealers) in thaialnd it is not

It's different: To put a pricetag on a used car, the dealer need a License. License cost about 10'k per year. Most of dealers avoid to pay that amount of money, so they can not put price tags on their cars.

Another thing: Can not "play" around with a "trade in", therefore no price tag.

Private sales on the road is forbitten to put a price tag. Can only put the tag "Sale" and the phonenumber.

Many cars with a For Sale sign on by the side of the road have prices ? maybe different provinces different rules ?

In Bang Yai there is always 3 or 4 cars parked on the side of the road together with price, [both sides of the road are Banks maybe repo cars?] and has been for past 8 years, most expensive was a slab side Benz S class @ 880,000 baht, normally see different cars there between 59 - 300,000

I looked very briefly at 2nd-hand prices and immediately put the idea completely out of my mind. Used car prices here are just plain absurd.

Thai built cars yes, but look at the European car, you can get 2nd hand a good European car with electric everything, climate control, leather, ABS and Airbags for the same price, same year as a basic Thai built No ABS, No Airbags,

The European car cost 1 -2 million more here then the same size Thai built car new......

Look at Honda, if you see a Thai built Accord next to a Legend or Vigor, same year and price, most Thai's will go for the Accord, beats me why, both the Legend and Vigor  have electric everything, climate control, leather, ABS and Airbags.

Thailand there lots of accidents yet safety appear to play no part in buying a car here....... you even see new'ish cars that they cange to a non airbag wheel, even the new still on red plates Mini bus yesterday had changed the wheel to a non airbag wheel !!

Uninstall your ad blocker and you will be able to see the ads.

Will say it again people using a friends PC/Laptop or using the internet shop, cannot start messing about with settings and uninstalling programs. so it would appear that Thaivisa Classified is only for people that own there own PC + willing to uninstall ad bocker... Right ?

.can offer solutions ?  err No, but if you first click start then Games, then open Google, play a game or 2 and Gmail has opened. Posted Image

No not you, never been able to get pictures, often there is no text...

Myself reported 2 or 3 time over the past year or so, reply was it is working and to change this and that on my PC settings, that never worked, oddly most of my friends also have the same problem.

Also find it odd that a Company uses some program in this day and age that loads of people cannot use/view........

It appears not to be the OS you use, I have windows 7,  have tried in Internet shops using Win 7, also XP, also some other OS, tried it in different parts of Asia and in Australia all at Internet shops = Advert is BLANK

Just hope that one day they will change it back to the old version that worked fine, or another version that works for everyone
