Cheers Anil anilkhemlaniI have a colleague in Bangkok, (Stamp collector) I'll email him now, and post back, if he is in town. There was one in Central Bangkok, when I was living there but was some time ago. Most central Post Offices have all the moderns for sale.

anilkhemlani Just had a reply Hello Rod, so good to hear from you. All is well also over here, On every Saturday at 10AM there are a few stamp dealers at the GPO at Charoenkrung road. I believe they are nowadays behind the post office, not in front of it. The Saturday stamp market is nearly dead from some 20 dealers some 15 years ago when I went last, to 4 dealers nowadays. There are several stamp shops just some 50 meters the GPO. Best is your friend ask at the stamp market, because I do not know which shop still survives. --------------------------- My comments Good Luck, get a "tuk tuk" to the GPO at Charoenkrung road. (get a price first) Take a bag, pencil and paper, and haggle Take some photos for us too ! I miss Bangkok, but not the humidity PS: You can also take a motorbike taxi, cheaper, get price first, but hang on to your hat, they are scary.
