What are the rules for bringing personal items and books into Thailand on a retirement visa?

Bob ********

Have to agree with others, a friend got a job, flew up to organise accommodation came back shipped of his stuff. Got hit with more taxes than the goods were worth, as the goods weren't on the way when he flew in the first time. And the goods were purely house content.
