Re iherb orders. I live in Hua Hin and have had duty imposed three times in the last year. Some items that I buy on their own go over the threshold. Like Ion liquid is 3000 baht. And nattovena is 2000. So when they don't arrive i have to drive to the post office near the airport and see if they have come and if so pick up and pay mostly about 400 baht. Once they left a notice at my home to come and pick up. (Yes I do use the tracking but not always accurate). Anyway there is no choice if you want the stuff you have to jump through the hoops. At least when you go pick it up they don't leave it in the sun when you're not home. Lol
