Thais seem to use gold like currency, it holds its value. That's what leads me to think that it is good quality.

I vaguely remember a discussion on the board about this, and the consensus was that Thai gold is unusually soft (as you say soft=pure) and therefore normally worth what you paid or thereabouts.

There is some science in there that I don't understand, but if it was me I would have no hesitation in buying gold in Thailand.
