I have shipped some stuff to Thailand and never had any problems. I have had more problems shipping stuff to Australia then Thailand.

I would look at the feedback and the date they joined. See if you can get more detailed tracking information should you choose to ship to them. Might cost more, but if the item is worth the price, you can deal with it.

I personally have not had any issues with shipping to Thailand, but as always, you must be vigilant.

The one thing I do notice on my thailand payments is that some of them go under the paypal review before they release the money to me. That is, paypal confirms that the money is coming from a legit thailand account and the funds are not fraudulent.

Been getting a lot of buyers recently asking if I will ship to Thailand and Malaysia and as soon as I mention that I will only ship to them using a signed for delivery service they seem to lose interest.

There's a clue in there I guess
