I suggest Zeer Rangsit, the large IT mall with nostalgic atmosphere. Many local shop not runs by big IT franchises. It feels close to Pantip Plaza few decades ago when its the most popular IT mall in Thailand.
Wow, this is an electronics mall. I would love to see in person. I can’t believe we have Macintosh there. Selling that, Krell and B&W was one of my first jobs out of high school, and I never thought I would see that equipment here. Mind blowing. Thank you for sharing this, this is definitely going on my list of places to visit. Great video. Thank you so much for showing us around!
@@LifewithSerg If there are some people in Bangkok that can afford BMW's, Mercedes, and high-end luxury condos, then they can afford that high end audio equipment.
We love visiting and exploring Fortune town every time we're there, It used to be my go to place to get replacement hard drives, memory etc when I was working further up north of there on the MRT, at Olympia Thai Tower... Surprised you didn't find the vintage collectable shops that are in the middle area on 4th or 5th floor, above the food court, some amazing collection there.
@@LifewithSerg Yeah they are not separate enclosed shops, they're along the edge of the big circular area to the northern side, there isn't many of them now but there's still a good collection of vintage stuff in about 10 different stands.
i could never go into that mall, id walk out with debt 🤣really cool video, and i wanted to thank you for making all of these! i never really knew Thailand was so cool but from your videos i think i would want to go here more than Japan
If you like game consoles the Open Source shop is very good. You can find cheaper consoles in the shops and malls in the Khlong Thom area but sometimes they are grey market Chinese imports and may not work quite like you'd expect.
You find the coolest places. I can't believe Thailand has so many awesome shopping malls. And you seem like somebody fun to hang out with to geek out about electronics and classic toys. Thanks for sharing! After a stressful week, it is nice just to relax and spend some time watching your videos.
There are so many more shopping malls here in Thailand. I generally avoid the majority of them, and couldn’t care about making videos there. However, this, and the toy mall are just superb. I’m very happy to know that you are able to relax with my silly little videos. More coming soon.
Hi Serg, love your videos, thanks so much for sharing. We are in Bangkok now and have used your video info to visit a few places, including Sakura and Pattavikorn markets, amazing. Went to Fortune Town on Friday, very interesting.
Vinyl heaven !!!!!! Iv been in all those record shops picking up movie soundtracks they have so much to offer and the prices are decent and some 2nd hand gems. As for the HiFi OMG I would love to be able to get some of the high end equipment, I can’t resist a gadget or 2 🫣🫣😊😊 nice one Serg take care
Omg saw Wilson's and clicked faaast! 😁 I appreciate that you go through some prices for the LPs and the hifi. Check out the prices on that Avant-garde Horn Speaker at 7:48. Must visit. Happy that Singapore & HK are not the only ones with these shops. In fact the display looks better than Singapore. Thanks for sharing Serg!
Great video. I’m a retired tech executive with a serious gadget/av/tech itch that can not properly be scratched in Pattaya. Will be spending some time and money at Fortune Town. Also I just finished my super high tech beach villa in Pattaya. It’s full of high end av and automation. Might make a good video?
They used to be a skate park on the roof, they’ve completely demolished all of that. I haven’t been up there for about eight months so next time I’m there I’ll have to go up and take a look. As far as the hobby zone, I went to every floor, and there was nothing there, except one store.
Fortune Town is one of my fav places in all of Bkk. I spent too many hours there during my last visit. And you are right...the audio store with the NAT equipment is fantastic!
Excellent information, exactly what I was looking for and it's amazing that you edit everything from the iPhone, well done, excellent work Thank you very much again
Loved every shopping vlogs of yours, especially ones about pawn markets. I've got to pause to stare like every changed frames like don't wanna miss any tempting detail. If I've been there myself I must've spent a lot for things I haven't even been looking for. This is one of the great cures for "Buy before think" symptoms 😂
Gadget guy? Me? Oh you bet. Definitely going to look for a new mic and used GoPro. I need better sound for my personal videos. Would like know more about pricing compared to back here at home
Same. Lol. I’m still editing using iMovie on my iPhone. I have DaVinci Resolve on my laptop, I just need to sit down and spend couple days learning it.
That mall looks awesome, I could spend all day window shopping for crap I don't need. Didn't know you are a Kenny G fan, I'm gonna get you an autographed pair of Kenny G undies. Not really they are just mine. 😊. Another interesting video.
Im not a big tech guy, my car has a cd/cassette player (stock) and my I phone is at least 4 generations out of date, I buy the lowest price good stuff I can get and use it till it breaks and buy another.
I tought mbk was larger? I try to not go into these kinds of malls unless I have a very specific plan. Can't just walk around and just look.... would be broke very fast... 😅
I was really shocked to see this level of high-end audio here in Bangkok. And I only showed about 15% of the high-end audio stores. This is a crazy place for any audiophile
I still see confused tourists at Pan Tip. It's all gone now but back in the day that place was magic, everything from 8track -USB adapters, cell phone jammers, tasers, disco lights, high power lasers and ever bit of software ever made ( bootlegs)
Salute from West Coast Canada! Trying to compare the prices I see on the screen what they are here in Canada… Looks like it’s much cheaper to just buy here before I move next year Was hoping prices to be a little cheaper there since it’s all from that side of the world?
If you’re talking about import technology, some is cheaper here, some is more expensive. It just depends on what it is. I also doubt that anyone shopping for $200,000 speakers and $75,000 turntables, is going to worry about a few thousand dollars in either direction.
Yes thats right. I remember it being built. Yaohan built malls in various cities around the world before they went bankrupt. The main store was at the end where Lotus now is.
I have been to Fortune Town and love it great place But I made a big mistake and went with my thai wife unlike me I like to take my time and look at all the Tech stuff but not her come on quick quick you finished looking yet 🤣 so I will be going back on my own that should be a full day out
Tube amps produce LESS wattage than solid-state (transistor) amps, and tubes have MORE distortion (mostly second-order harmonic distortion that is perceived as being warmer). Tubes typically sound better than solid-state amps on poorly recorded music (and pre-digital music) where you don't want to hear all the recording tape hiss and other limitations of older recordings. Tubes can also sound better if a new digital recording is a bit too detailed for one's taste.

I’m a huge gadget geek, probably why I haven’t visited Fortune Town yet, I’m too afraid of spending all my money! 😅
Ha ha. I know the feeling!
I suggest Zeer Rangsit, the large IT mall with nostalgic atmosphere. Many local shop not runs by big IT franchises. It feels close to Pantip Plaza few decades ago when its the most popular IT mall in Thailand.
Will check it out. Thanks!
McIntosh started in 1949 in Binghamton NY in the USA (where they are still located) and is celebrating their 75th anniversary.
You are so absolutely correct. I knew it was much older than the 70s, I just couldn’t remember the exact date. Some of my favorite audio equipment.
Wow, this is an electronics mall. I would love to see in person. I can’t believe we have Macintosh there.

Thank you for sharing this, this is definitely going on my list of places to visit. Great video. Thank you so much for showing us around!
Yes, the first time I went to the small I was blown away that they had all of these amazing hired audio brands!
@@LifewithSerg If there are some people in Bangkok that can afford BMW's, Mercedes, and high-end luxury condos, then they can afford that high end audio equipment.
I can't wait to visit Fortune town again. I love gadgets and get back to Bangkok next week
You should!
We love visiting and exploring Fortune town every time we're there, It used to be my go to place to get replacement hard drives, memory etc when I was working further up north of there on the MRT, at Olympia Thai Tower... Surprised you didn't find the vintage collectable shops that are in the middle area on 4th or 5th floor, above the food court, some amazing collection there.
I didn’t see any of them open. Will have to go back.
@@LifewithSerg Yeah they are not separate enclosed shops, they're along the edge of the big circular area to the northern side, there isn't many of them now but there's still a good collection of vintage stuff in about 10 different stands.

also OMG THE CITYPOP VINYL SECTION 😍😍
It would be easy to get into dirt shopping at that mall. I think Japan would be even more amazing. I plan to find out very soon.
If you like game consoles the Open Source shop is very good. You can find cheaper consoles in the shops and malls in the Khlong Thom area but sometimes they are grey market Chinese imports and may not work quite like you'd expect.
Hey, thanks for the tip, I’ll have to go check it out

This market would drain my wallet faster than a night at Nana plaza. Lmao
Goodness gracious! I’m all geeked out! Will definitely have to check our Fortune Town. Thanks for the high quality content Serg!
It’s a great place to geek out for sure. Enjoy!

I think you will definitely enjoy Fortune Town mall. It’s full of exactly the kind of stuff you seem to like.
The hobby zone is on the underground floor Serg and there's a Basketball Court on the rooftop as well
They used to be a skate park on the roof, they’ve completely demolished all of that. I haven’t been up there for about eight months so next time I’m there I’ll have to go up and take a look.

Such work stuff!
@@LifewithSerg keep up the good work you lucky dog. I can't wait to get back to Bkk and then to the mega mall!
I'm just speechless!! So only WOW!!!
Pretty much how I felt
Excellent information, exactly what I was looking for and it's amazing that you edit everything from the iPhone, well done, excellent work Thank you very much again
Glad you liked it. I have switched to CapCut on my laptop as of about 3 months ago.
This is my favorite place in bangkok. I can spend morning until closing in this mall😁😁. Nice video
I love this place as well. Glad you enjoyed.
Definitely the best mall in that area
Totally!
Fortune Town still has a bit of character to it unlike what they did to Panthip which is now mostly chain stores.
Fortune town definitely has some character. I’ve been there three or four times, and always find something new.
Loved every shopping vlogs of yours, especially ones about pawn markets. I've got to pause to stare like every changed frames like don't wanna miss any tempting detail. If I've been there myself I must've spent a lot for things I haven't even been looking for. This is one of the great cures for "Buy before think" symptoms 😂
Ha ha. Yes this place is nuts! So much to see.
I'm a huge thrash metal fan and love collecting vinyl. I would definitely be making a purchase or 10 in those record stores.
Yeah so many record shops here.
You always find the most interesting & cool plces in bangkok. Looking forward to when you're able to upgrade you editing/vlogging setup. Cheers.
Thanks so much! I appreciate you!
Great video, I am happy to see this shop back after corona.
Same here
Gadget guy? Me? Oh you bet. Definitely going to look for a new mic and used GoPro.
I need better sound for my personal videos.
Would like know more about pricing compared to back here at home
Go check it out. I would suggest a DJI wireless mic. That is what i use.
see your subscriber base is increasing... congrats ! Matt
Slowly but surely. 1,000,000 next week. Lol
I really enjoyed this, I was drooling through the whole video.
I can only imagine!
Nice place, I bought an acoustic guitar from there.
I’ve been to this mmall four times, and I never get tired of it
Boy what a mall. Hope you enjoyed yourself!
Oh most definitely.
Cool mall! Amazing what you can find in Bangkok!
This place is wild!
I use my iPhone 14pro to make content and edit with iMovie. What editing app do you use?
Same. Lol. I’m still editing using iMovie on my iPhone. I have DaVinci Resolve on my laptop, I just need to sit down and spend couple days learning it.
Yes those are Wilson speakers made in Utah
Nice
If I wanted to buy records from Fortune Town, how might I ship them to the USA in New York? Do you have advice for me? George
Just go to any place that offers shipping and grey will pack and ship. It’s that simple.
Good morning K.Serg, thank you for good vdo, good talk. I like yr vdo very much.
Thank you!
Oh my gosh. At this mall now!! Very excited to head in
Enjoy!
Serg I have sent your channel to so many other agents. My group arrives nov 1. Happy to support you some way.
That mall looks awesome, I could spend all day window shopping for crap I don't need. Didn't know you are a Kenny G fan, I'm gonna get you an autographed pair of Kenny G undies. Not really they are just mine. 😊. Another interesting video.
Easy to stay all day at that mall. I’ll add them to my my superfan underwear collection.
Im not a big tech guy, my car has a cd/cassette player (stock) and my I phone is at least 4 generations out of date, I buy the lowest price good stuff I can get and use it till it breaks and buy another.
I don’t buy gadgets either for the most part. I think what you’re doing is very smart.
Zeer Rangsit is bigger and better especially for computer hardware
Yes but so far from central Bangkok.
WoW. This is classy . Yea.
Wild place!
Hi serg you said you was going to get another phone was it secondhand or new for your navigation on your bike? Many thanks
I didn’t get one. Long story. Will get a second hand one shortly. Yes, just for navigation.
I tought mbk was larger?
I try to not go into these kinds of malls unless I have a very specific plan. Can't just walk around and just look.... would be broke very fast... 😅
MBK, as a mall, is larger. However, in Fortune, Town has a lot more tech stuff.
Its sad that high-end audio is almost completely dead here in the States.
I was really shocked to see this level of high-end audio here in Bangkok. And I only showed about 15% of the high-end audio stores. This is a crazy place for any audiophile
@@LifewithSerg Probably more in Bangkok than the entire US, I think there is only one left in Chicago and a few in all the suburbs.
Ha, was just there last Saturday. Easy to park there too.
Yes huge parking.
Orang Speakers are Wilson Audio from the US. 😊That Alexa XV is still not the most expensive. Their most expensive the WAMM is over US$1million
I didn’t look close enough at the name, but I’ve definitely seen these before. Just incredible.
Great place, so many good stuff!! 👌👌
It really is!
Awesome! i have to go see this place
You should!
Thanks for sharing 🎉
You are so welcome
another enjoyable episode
Happy to know!
I still see confused tourists at Pan Tip. It's all gone now but back in the day that place was magic, everything from 8track -USB adapters, cell phone jammers, tasers, disco lights, high power lasers and ever bit of software ever made ( bootlegs)
Lolllll. I just looked at the review.
Do they have home security cameras here?
Oh yes.
Salute from West Coast Canada!
Trying to compare the prices I see on the screen what they are here in Canada…
Looks like it’s much cheaper to just buy here before I move next year
Was hoping prices to be a little cheaper there since it’s all from that side of the world?
If you’re talking about import technology, some is cheaper here, some is more expensive. It just depends on what it is.
I also doubt that anyone shopping for $200,000 speakers and $75,000 turntables, is going to worry about a few thousand dollars in either direction.
@@LifewithSerg lol yeah I was comparing camera lenses prices but in defence the item you grabbed does cost three times here… 5$ there 15$ in Canada
Nice video Serg! Were you able to find a used phone?
No I was not. Turned out they only had new. Should have just bought one. Lol
More videos like this would be nice.
Will do.
Holy cow, amazing!
Glad you like it!
Would have never known you were using a iPhone. Good job 👍🏾
Yep, just keeping it simple. 😊 thanks!
Tesco Lotus food court in the basement has some awesome food.
That’s actually where I had lunch before I filmed this video.
Excellent video...
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the great video Serg, can you advise of anywhere that has good quality 2nd hand Cannon & Sony Camera lenses ?
Watch my prior video about Mega Plaza. It’s a video right before this one. That’s where you wanna go for quality secondhand lenses.
@@LifewithSerg Thanks Serg, I think my bank account might be a bit lighter once I have been there haha
The Thais really know how to do malls and it's ALWAYS about the food court. 😁
Lmao. Yes it sure is. Lol
Forturn Town it's used to be the Yaohan Shopping mall, form japan. 😄👍
Thanks for the info!
Yes thats right. I remember it being built. Yaohan built malls in various cities around the world before they went bankrupt. The main store was at the end where Lotus now is.
@@andywarne963 yes, when i was little kid, this mall was gigantic, lots of nice good stuff form Japan. 😄👍
I have been to Fortune Town and love it great place But I made a big mistake and went with my thai wife unlike me I like to take my time and look at all the Tech stuff but not her come on quick quick you finished looking yet 🤣 so I will be going back on my own that should be a full day out
Just like when men go with women that are shopping for clothes. I completely understand.
10:58 awesome. ❤❤
Yes it’s amazing.
Thank you for sharing, I’ve never seen that before. 👍
Thanks!!
Welcome!
I'll definitely buy a condo next to this area and visit everyday 😮😮
Ha ha. RIP your wallet. Lol
Optimism!
A long time ago, Pantip plaza is the number one.
Ah I did not know.
@@LifewithSerg That place is near by Platinum Mall , Partu Nam area, Serg.
Has anyone seen PC watercooling equipment for sale there?
Yes. They have it!
love your video
Thank you!
Those orange speakers are over 250000$ a pair
Yeah expensive!
VERY;VERY;VERY INTERESTING
Thanks!
I used to work in the office tower of Fortune Town, I spent a large chunk of my salary there. 😂😂
I can only imagine.
The 3rd floor is actually a play park for 50 years old kids like us
Ha ha. How true
Did you ever consider a Garmin instead of a phone?
Easier with a phone and Google maps.

Awesome
I love this place
Love u from india
Thank you
Sir make a video of 2nd hand Motorbike
I will make a video on how to buy secondhand motorbikes soon
@@LifewithSerg ok thanks
Watch out for that bootleg software. Most of those CD-s have viruses, ransom-ware, and other very bad software on them.
Yep. I would never touch any of that stuff.
Those orange speakers are Wilson Audio. That is not even the top-of-the-line Wilson.
Yes, their WAMM system is insane. I’ve seen it in person in the US.
Soo cool
Thanks!
I can lose myself in places like that :D
It’s awesome.
sure is, now lets wait and see if Adam makes the same video but his way XD@@LifewithSerg
there !
You will love it
RIP Pantip Plaza
Yes
the more I watch your video, the more handsome you are 😂❤
Ha ha. Thanks.
Wow!!!😂😂😂
Crazy place
😯
So much cool stuff.
🙏🙏👍👍❤❤🇹🇭
😊👍
