Bobae Whosale
Bobae Market : My Thai friend had caution me on this place of some wholesalers' attitude. There were stalls before the bridges that close quite early and shops after the bridges. Most shops would sell in pieces of 4, 6, 12 and more likely in sizes of S,M,L,XL in varying patterns. While most wholesalers were polite but 1 particular shop did give me a lasting bad taste. This wholesaler was more impatient than the 2 girls she employed. As this was my first experience, and all signage in the shop was in Thai, had to ask couple of questions. I should have left after seeing her offensive body gestures but I didn't. I had to ask how to get a deal but she had hard time describing it. And at one point, she barked at me after failed to convey her message across. She even tried to chase me out of the store that she do not need 'walk in' customer. She repeatably emphasized that this is wholesale not department store like a broken records. At 1 point of time of time when I asked if i can check the merchandise after paying she lamented on wholesale rule (maybe her own rule) that I can not check the goods in her store and neither can I check it outside her store. Sounded ridiculous as once paid it's mine but that's her rule. From this experience, I think, as a frequent traveler, one should avoid going to wholesaler market by yourself, get a local language translator guide is better , Yeah!
