Khao
Lak has a big variety of shopping items, souvenirs, T-Shirts,
cloths, handmade tailor war, jewelry, gems, local handicrafts
and fine arts.
All these you will find in one of the various shops around or
in the evening there is the so called Dragon Market - lcoated
on the main road. Stroll around, take a break with a nice drink,
there are a lot of chill out places inbetween.
Bargaining is an art long practiced in Asian countries including
Thailand. So feel free to ask for a proper discount when shopping
in places where prices are not marked.
Be careful in dealing with sidewalk vendors who may not offer
genuine goods at fair prices. Receipts should be obtained for
the goods you buy. For jewelry you must get a certificate of guarantee
as well.
Some shops can offer a money-back guarantee but you should clearly
determine all conditions with the shopkeeper beforehand.
