I wandered aimlessly around Pantip Plaza in Bangkok a couple of weeks back, unaware that this place existed. I didnt have the money for the RS1i listed here at the equivalent of about 930 AUD:

PANTIP.COM Headphone Pricelist - ÃÒ¤ÒËٿѧ, Ëٿѧ, àδ⿹, Headphone, Koss, Grado, Grado Labs, Alessandro, Skullcandy, Headphone Amplifier, Headphone Amp, iPod Classic, iPod Nano, ÁÑ蹤§ Gadget, audiophile, ÅÓ⾧, mp3 player, mp4, CD, VCD, áÍÁ»ì, ÊÒÂ

Assuming we arent talking fakes here (at those prices, I very much doubt it), thats almost $300 off the price the local distributor is asking for the same headphones:

Welcome to audiophile

Granted, you dont buy a plane ticket to save a few bucks on a pair of Grados, but it will make my next trip considerably more rewarding. Unlike Adelphi, the shop owners at Pantip strike me as being very keen to do business.

Wow, extensive inventory. Shopping for headphones and an evening at Beergarden is a nice way to pass the time in LOS.
