Hi.

Will be in South Pattaya for 8 months. Hotel near Central Dept Store.

Just wondering where can I purchase a FireStick or Fire TV box in Pattaya?

Read previous threads Firestick works ok there if you have a stable internet.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

I have two.    If you have Amazon Prime and NOT a VPN = you get the FOREIGN selection of Prime, very little.   If you have Prime    AND a FAST VPN - you will get the same programming as the USA, very worth it IMO.   

Also, the same formula above holds true for my Apple TV.

Lots of people here use a media box (android), and then either download the APK's or use KODI.   Google KODI and Android media box.

Good luck!

Message ""Footymadstreams"".

He has a good selection.

Thread here somewhere on the TV Boxes.

A firestick can be loaded with kodi etc. Took me about an hour from opening up the packaging to Google how to do it and actually have it loaded.

@WoWuk

Thanks.

My initial plan is:

purchase a Firestick or Fire Tv in Pattaya.

Load Gears TV subscription package for $15.00 per month.

I looked at FootMadstreams box he is advertising. Did not read all the 47 threads. He does have a plentiful of channels, but none of the USA channels I am looking for. Ex; METV, BET, GET TV, Bounce. Gears Tv has these streaming channels. I will however, post a message on his thread regarding the availability of these channels on his box.  If he has them I’ ll buy his box.

In the meantime, can you or anyone direct me to where a fire stick or Fire TV can be purchase in Pattaya.

@disckygozina

Thanks for the info. I’m not a Amazon Prime subscriber. Looking to install Gears Tv paid subscription package on a stick. My interest is in Live streaming TV. The VOD /TV shows, I can probably download. I am a noob at this (media android box) having an old analog TV box in New York (which I plan to upgrade when i return). 

(Q) Do I need to use a VPN  service to watch Gears TV live channels in Thailand.

@thinkingalloded.

If I go the Firestick route, i'll probably load Kodi on the stick. Do you get  excessive buffering using the Kodi box?

Try Tuk Com 3rd &4th floor or Harbor Mall 4th floor, or you can order them online from Lazada and have it shipped in a few days.

To get my USED Fire TV into Thailand without any duty, I did the following.   I had my buddy take the box and power cable, remote  alone, no amazon box or original packing just bubble wrap and put it in a small unmarked box.  Filled out the customs forms to say USED value $15.  I had it sent to my hotel front desk via ems.  Got it no problems, no duty.      - If you have any reliable friends in the USA, maybe they can order one and get it to you same way?  

Thank all for your help.

Will checkout Tukcom.

@dickygozinya  Thanks for the alternative.
