Khun Paul wrote:The argument over the cost of sausages and whether the price is displayed is rather silly. Most places I buy food from unless it is of course Big C or Tesco, you actually have to have a conversation to ascertain the price for the goods you want. Steve at T bar displays the price on the door for his pies but for his sausages you have to look at the packet you have chosen. Elsewhere you ask. it is called conversation and in talking to the retailer you might on occasion find a discount or two depending on what and how many you buy and whether he/she likes you or not.

it seems that some posters have forgotten the power of speech and thereby require everything in black and white so they can make their mind up from the safety of their armchairs without venturing outside to actually meet another human being.
The old adage if you have to ask the price you cannot afford it , does not apply to food which varies enormously depending on what and how many or much you buy, also as Jon says, each to their own. There have been occasionally times when I purchased some sausages which were not to my taste, so next time I changed the type and always seek as many do the best bargain for what I want but in all truthfulness, if you want good food you have to pay for it.
What a load of cowpat. Most places these days display prices be it a restaurant or a shop.
Maybe a few Yai and Da shops in Ban Nok but that’s about it. Your living in dream land me laddo…

(12345 tongue in cheek or not ) ...Most definately not ....Every Tom n Harry are making sausages now a days all over Thailand ...but just a few years back i recall only 2 (not Thai ss) vendors of the said must have food product in the whole of the Kingdom .

If you advertise how great your product is and then another post asks the price why would you answer pop in and I'll tell you? What's the big secret? Just mention prices may vary slightly due to exchange rates if imported.
Theres an argument for both sides ......
some guys like to go shopping and make it a social event out n about with the missus ,..
or to relieve the boredom of living in the sticks ...
or retirement n no hobbies ..
or just to see a white face a speak something else than broken English and or bumkum Thai ....
ON THE OTHER SIDE
some like to shop on line and hate venturing into a shop , shopping center or supermarket ...either way its all down to the individual chosen path with regard to differing tastes , budget , where n how they shop and how much they spend and where they choose to spend buy...

Either way its not a case of life n death .....IS IT ?????????......its just sausagetasticmania

Off topic a bit .. When i go to the local public market i shop only for 3 things...
Patanko .. only one vendor so there is no real need to display the price..
Herbs ... few vendors all selling at the exact same price... usually when you pick up a bunch the saleslady will tell the price..
Fruits... We have 3-4 vendors, but only one display the prices and that s where i shop, moreover her fruits look fresher and better than the others and yes sometimes we will exchange few words or i guess she ll explain in Thai the fruit origin.. FINE with me.
She always has a friendly smiling attitude , one more reason to buy from her.

Retailers should when ever possible openly state standard prices then any promotions there after , i know some do n some dont as its nice to actually get prospective customers into the premises and increases the chance of a sale or larger sale .

Wholesalers ..Having been in this game for a considerable time and involved with numerous importers and other wholesalers of various products i dont know many if ANY at all that openly advertise their prices to the general public , as we /they supply for the most part businesses who are selling on the products to the general public at a profit and these businesses are already furnished with an up to date price / product list .

With regard to the porkhouse location next door to us , i believe this is going to be a wholesale outlet supplying agents in other locations around Isaan as they are already doing at Sophies in Udon town center.

With regard to sausages im a Lincolnshire sausage kinda guy and have my own made by a guy in Bkk , same fella who makes our TAP Melton Mowbray PORK PIES and i happily pay him 250 bt per kg plus delivery costs as they are my dream banger , i would actually pay double i love them so much ....

We all have our own opinion and as stated its all down to personal taste AND BUDGET , this obviously applies to all shopping whether a tin of beans a new fridge or motor car .

DM
How can it not be possible for a retailer to advertise standard prices ??
Do they know the price of their product or not ??
Is it a case of seeing how much money they think they can gouge from the customer once he is in the door??
I think most consumers would prefer straight talking retailers, and that includes a straight answer about the price.
They can then make the simple decision to buy or walk away.
READ MY POST AGAIN .....it clearly states IMO RETAILERS SHOULD SHOW PRICES when possible simply means with some imported products the price can change from delivery to delivery container to container depending on issues such as tax / duty , shipping/delivery costs and purchasing prices in the source country ...

I dont know any wholesalers that openly advertise their pricing to the general public ... different issue entirely.

As retailers of Imported beverages our prices are set until the wholesaler i use changes theirs , no problem at all advertising our prices and promotions etc and if any customer wishes to drop by to taste , buy or just browse thats fine by us.... we never have had or never will have this gouge mentality you mention anyone operating a business who does would soon be out of customers and out of business .

DM
Suddenly everything is clear, the retail price of sausages remains a closely guarded secret, because they are imported !!!

as 12345 said, they are all within a few baht of each other anyway, 2 other factors come into it, which one is your favorite , and which ones are convienient to purchase. if like most people you think a sausage is a sausage. and if you find a delicious one you probably don't mind driving a bit to get them or pay 10 baht more or 10 baht less.
sausagegate, it's a conspiracy you know :lol:

Haha good one Jon, social event.

With the banter about sausages some people appear to believe the hype an think sausages are actually a gourmet food item and a need to go out of your way to get some.
Sausages are just sausages with a high fat content and all that is needed is to fire up the BBQ plate and try not to burn them while consuming a beer or 3.
The standard and quality of a meat is determined with what you will drink with it. I doubt anyone would drink a fine red with a sausage?

Am I correct in assuming these are the same sausages of WellFedd/PorkHouse, and all sourced from same. Since if I'm guessing correctly, you are all one in the same group.

Since Choice promo is 'been in business for 40 yrs", same as WellFedd "Been in business for 40 yrs", serving CM and Patts, but can't find a thing on internet about them (well fed, maybe subsid of Choice). Along with same marketing, same repetitive pics, with no pricing. Had me thinking, and now posting, Cherm Chim, but by benchwarmer1.

I cleaned off my 'read between the lines' specs.......... all getting clearer now. :lol:

All this talk of sausages, had to buy some, Bucher brand at Makro, their smoke version (180 half kg). My bacon is now 239 / kg. Not a fan of Brit sausages, very bland for my yank palate, as more a sage, JD and spicy Italian fan. So homemade. Though the smoke bratwurst fills the void for the non-existent hotdogs here. Calling them Brats are a stretch.

Did notice pork sausage and Cumberlands in the freezer case 229 / kg, which I think I sampled, along with most of the rest of the Brit sausage offerings............all tasting about the same, so I'll give them all a pass.

Except for Dean's Sausage Rolls, freshly made and quite enjoy them when feeling lazy.
