guess what i saw also, Roy pee few diff phims with price range 3500 baht - 5000 baht!!
And all these are sold in WRK temple itself, but when i ask, where can i get any reference from any printed materials since i'm interested to sapu 30-50 pieces of them, guess what?! he said none, these were from LP (never said who kept them) in WRK who took out from his own collection and start selling......and when i ask again, whether these batches of phra Somdej are recognized by any Sien Phra in Thailand, they frustratingly answered what they sell here are 100% genuine but no guarantee when it is "dumped out" from any authentication body or competition in BKK....hmmm
My Thai friend ever advised me saying in Thailand, amulet there's a price dun think you are the lucky ones. Even in temple, amulets also cannot be 100% trusted especially those older ones. I was thinking that time, amulets from temple cannot be 100% trusted how about those dealers? Dealers are much trust worthy than temples???
No doubt I ever heard people saying amulets will look for owner but we never knows what we are going to end up with if we are lazy to do homework or let the greed blind us. :smilie:
Thanks to Bro chaity82 for this valuable eye-opener.
When I went to Wat Rahkang about 2 years ago , a 2495 Somdej was renting around 500 baht.
Already doubt the price due to too much " stocks " availability.
The Thais are not stoopid , they would have snapped up everything at that sort of pricing.
As for Roi Pee 2515 , my homeboy in Krung Thep has already informed me the price has shot to 8000 baht - 9000 baht around Dec 2009.
I dare not think what's the price of Roi Pee today.
Latest trip i went to Wat Rakang this year, i found out from the counter that the market price currently for a Somdej Wat Rakang Loy Pee B.E 2515(100 years) is ranging from 12,000 baht - 15,000 baht depending on condition.
