I hope you all got a good laugh out of my situation. Didn't read all the posts about taxi stands and what not, like I said before "It's a learning experience". I did get a good deal for a private owned taxi service run by the lady that owns the internet cafe that I'm sitting in right now. 1000 baht to PTY. Made sure I got a recipt, and she threw in her business card for free. Off to Bamboo beer bar @ 1900hrs. if ne1 wants to meet a sucker lates.

i still don't understand the problem people have with Taxis in Thailand.

Singleman said it cost him 1000 to go from BKK to PTY.
whats that,90 minute journey?
in the UK I will pay that for an 8 minute journey of less than 3 miles.
wise up,prices are much so much cheaper in LOS.
don't moan about the odd 100 Baht,it's not worth it unless you are a real CC.

H zink the point I am trying to make is how do these ass holes justify that sort of increase

Gotcha.
I'd guess the usul way any insane increase is justified - "let's see how many folks bite, thinking it's a great deal"

At 5000 Baht, they only need to offer 1/3 the service, and make the same revenue... and if they make more, so much the better.

From what I have been reading hereabouts, the Thais seem to favor raising prices when business is low. On the other hand, we tend to avoid businesses that raise their prices...
