fforest Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 (edited) If we are paying these high prices in Thailand, in China and Europe they must be paying out the wazoo for fresh Durian......... You can get a whole fresh Durian in the Uk for only 84 pounds or 3700 Baht..... https://rareexotics.co.uk/products/durian-fruit-buy-online Edited June 14, 2021 by fforest 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can tell the price in the San Francisco area for fresh durian is crazy. One section was going for $35 (1085 ฿) yesterday. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
