Vibrators

Hi All,
I need some advice. A friend has asked me to bring a vibrator over with me as they are difficult to obtain in Phuk. Apparently they are illegal to buy!

Does anyone know what the situation is if customs in Bangkok found 1 in your luggage? i.e. confisicate it, fine you, arrest you, deport you or couldn't care less!

I have no problem bringing 1 over but I am not looking for any grief either.

thanks.

Probably because there isnt one, as usual all on the fly and how they feel at the time.

i don't think you would have a problem bringing one in (other than embarassment if searched), at worst I would say confiscation of the item.

As long as it was only a single item and not multiple items still in packaging ready for sale.

Again, this is just speculation on my part and as SteveM says 'depends how they feel at the time'.

Be easier to let a ladyfriend bring it in though - there must be plenty of incidents from tourists 'little friends' being discovered!

Why would you bring something in when you know it is illegal?

With friend like that you sure don't need enemies.

Just does not make sense.

You are trying to compare the uncomparable. There is no comparision.
It is silly to tempt customs in a third world country.

Please...so just how many times have you had problem with customs?

Unless your packing a case full of sellable items then its no worries, don't try and makes mountains out of mole hills.

I thought this was a joke.

Just imagine the Hollywood movie of a dildo smuggler getting arrested at a customs body search.

What would the movie be called?

Here are a few suggestions:

"Midnight Distress?" "Internal Damage Done" ? "Runs silent runs deep?"

"The great Asscape?"

too bad Steve McQueen is dead. He could have brought it in for you. In the book "Papillon" Steve McQueen's character used to keep his money in his "plan", a small cannister that he kept in his ***(I think you can figure this one out).

How about "Is that your A*s buzzing?"
"Devman and his Magic Wand".
"Sex Toys, What's the Buzz?"

If you don't fancy bringing one through customs, tell your friend to go to Suntisuk market in Had Yai. Plenty on sale there. They don't openly display them though, you have to look at a catalogue.

I also heard u can get them in Chinatown in Bangkok, there are similar markets around there.
