no need to book ahead usually... otherwise u do get scammed unless staying at a chain.
ive been to thailand. Never trust anyone there for a service unless the service is to be rendered IMMEDIATELY. Never prebook anything unless you dont have to pay until service is rendered.
I got taken at full moon party. We got over to the island no problem but the scammers never came back to pick us up at the designated time.

I saw some of that there. It happens in broad daylight within ear shot of anyone.
This particular moment there were 2 little girls that these guys were being sold by an older white chick in a normal restaurant. I wanted to get up and beat the crap out of them.

No doubt you can pay the "white tax" in asia. Unless you have asian friends who tell you the real price to shoot for LOL

But it's still just over a buck a piece.
I had this in Bali where it is encourage that you bargain with the merchants. They would often sell for 20-25% of their or original price. At first it was fun, but I started to feel bad trying to beat these people down to paying a few bucks for something that would cost me a lot more.
