Where can i buy used playstations or xbox in bangkok but in good condition?

Fortune Town on Rama 9 is another solid option, not as touristy as MBK and more focused on electronics and IT gear. The second floor has a few shops that refurbish consoles and give you a 30-day guarantee which is better than what most stalls offer. Prices are similar to MBK but the bargaining is a bit easier since they deal with locals more and you can often knock off 500 baht if you pay cash. Just bring a friend who speaks Thai if you can, it helps with the haggle.

mbk center is your best bet for this, it's basically a mall of small electronics stalls. go to the 4th or 5th floor, there's a few shops that sell used consoles with a short warranty, usually 7-30 days. prices are a bit higher than facebook marketplace but you get to actually test the unit and see the condition before buying. if you want a ps4 pro specifically, expect to pay around 7,000-9,000 baht depending on controller condition and if it comes with cables

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
