Will I Get Lucky In Bangkok's LARGEST Second Hand Shop?
Let's go shopping and see if we get lucky! Today we shall see if I will get lucky in Bangkok's largest second hand shop. I have been wanting to visit Lucky Home Samrong for quite some time and decided that today was the day to do it. This has to be Bangkok's largest second hand shop! It takes up 3 separate warehouses. All the goods in this shop are imported from Japan. The main focus of Lucky Home Samrong is musical instruments, stereo equipment, speakers, portable radios as well as a huge section dedicated to cameras and lenses. If you are looking for any of these things, this is the place for you. I have never seen so many used stereos, cameras, lenses and records in one place. a must see if you like second hand markets and shops!

I wish you the best of luck in finding it.
I bought some stuff there last week at 90% discount. What you have to know about these Japanese import warehouses is that they're getting new containers every 2 months I believe. Most is junk material and randomly priced as they usually buy those per weight. Prices will go down as they're getting closer to the next shipment. Less choice but cheaper options when you wait for the 70% or 90% discounts. I wouldn't recommend anyone to buy complex gear if you don't have repair skills though.

These are my favorite stores. There’s a couple other markets like this that I still have not visited. I’ll definitely make a video about them.
As a local I can confirm that this place is a gem - imagine usual garage sales but 100x larger.😮 And they'd put stuff on sales/discount in a cycle manner. After starting the new lot sales at list price for a few days they'll start gradual discount to all items, from mild 10% off to "clearance" 90% off towards the end of the cycle. After that they'd close down for a few days to rearrange for the new lot of stuff, and the cycle continues. Those clearance 90% discount sales would be only as-is, no testing allowed however. But I took the risk, and had got some gems ridiculously cheap from time to time (got a fully functional TEAC 3-head cassette deck at only about $30😎- go figure). So if you know the business and love to take the risk, this place is very recommended. PS correction: this place is technically not in BKK area (actually in Samut Prakarn province), but close enough to not to cause any commute issue.

You can test stuff beforehand and if it is to expensive for what you want to pay just wait until the big discounts happen and go back and see if one of the items you had tested before is still there and pick it up at a steal.

The older analog equipment is great to have and use
If you are from Australia, New Zealand or the UK make sure you check the operating voltage of any used equipment before you buy it. Anything rated 220 -240v is fine (some units will have adjustable voltage selectors near the AC input). Anything less, don't touch it unless you want to use the device with a step-down transformer. As to the cameras, know what you are looking at. In high humidity such as Thailand and Japan, camera lenses will develop mould between the lens elements very quickly so you need to look through the lens and if you spot any sort of furry gunk inside, no matter how small, just leave it as the mould is already inside. In Japan people often store their lenses in sealed pouches or containers with silica gel capsules or pouches from medication bottles to keep the lenses dry. Also look at the upper most glass element and the rear element to look for signs of scratches, coating aberrations or glass pitting. Any of those things will render a lens useless.

Lets say there is a monster receiver that cost 2K in USA. You buy it there for 50$ and ships with Fedex to US for about 200$ I would say its good deal )) @@LifewithSerg

I've also seen some videos of second hand audio shops in Japan and they have a lot of incredible vintage audio equipment in excellent condition. Of course the prices are going to be higher. I suspect this place buys all the sub-standard and unwanted stuff from Japan because it sure looks like it.

I love Lucky Home! I got some harmonicas and an old tripod there. You have to be careful, coming from Japan, most electronics run on 110v. Some stuff I tested was blown out on 220v already.

There were definitely some germs there. Just have to be careful as all these items are 110 V, and Thailand runs on 220.
Now I know where everything in America went to manual passed a bunch of stuff that was vintage and I told Matt all that black 90s stuff. There are some cool pieces in there. I would love to have had working or not working Jesus I tell you want by chance I fly to Bangkok go through there by what I want and have a shit back to America. Thanks for the video.

I know they get containers on a regular basis and cycle all of the inventory. I’m not sure how often it happens. But everything starts at 100% and eventually gets down to 90% discount. Just keep in mind that all the cameras and the lenses are sitting open like that, so there’s going to be a lot of dust and possibly Pete and moisture damage. Definitely go check it out.

Hi @LifewithSerg . thanks for your great content . I am a electronic enthusiast but not the vintage one. Do you have any idea in Bangkok where to buy the second hand electronic product ? likes, "the Place" to buy it such as smartphone, speaker, smart TV , laptop and accessories etc. Thank in advance.

Go to MBK mall, there are lots of second hand vendors. Also second hand markets. Check out my secondhand market playlist, most of the markets on that list. Have a wide variety of secondhand items like you’re looking for.

Of what good is it to buy audio equip in Bangkok if you live in the US? The cost of shipping it would only add to the cost of getting say, an amplifier, which are quite heavy.

They sell out every month and get a new container every month. Hence the sliding discounts all month long.
Awesome this video. next time I'm in BKK, I want to have a look at the mall. This would have excited me.... about ten to twenty years ago... In the ninetees my mouth would be watering by the sight of those electronics, especially those from Japan. But nowadays... no way to have a gigantic machinery like that in my house. The small tv screen you showed? At that time in the nineties I would love to have a cassetteplayer like that. Imagine watching movies on a small screen. I think I even had something like that. Now my phone can do more and better! I live near Hua Hin and on the way home I passed many times a place called Japan Mall. I always thought it was something similar to what you showed, but by a far stretch nothing like it. They sell second hand Japanese stuff, but most of it is just old and cheap and bad. In Japan I have visited many second hand shops. I used to buy famous brand bags, second hand, looking like new and smuggled them home to sell them on Ebay. Just something like four bags each time (there was a time that I went at least once a month to Japan). I could sell them with 100% profit. But not only that, I bought once a nice 6x7 camera in Japan (Plaubel) a professional camera for a very good price - ok that was in 1984 or something... Later, about 15 years ago I often bought laptops from Japan. They were in very good conditon and for a good price. Big shops often had a second hand section where you could find stuff. I never saw shops like that in Bangkok.

I think most of the second hand stuff that’s imported from Japan. and sold here is really the junk. Even reading the article about this place, the Japanese man that opened it said that he saw a market in Thailand for items that were unsellable in Japanese secondhand stores.
