because I've seen several lots that followed the outline of what I stated. In fact, in our area of town I've seen some that started off as car washes, then expanded into "loans" with just a few older cars out front (repos) that now have a couple of dozen cars. Business must be booming! None of these place appear to be anything that would be associated with a large bank repo service/sales. They're all relatively small.. Am I generalizing? Yeah sure but drive out any of the main roads from Udon and count the number of used car lots that have signs indicating they give loans for cars...

Of cause they advertise giving loans .
How many Thais have the sort of cash to buy a car?
Does this make them local loans sharks ? or do they get you finance off site.
They do get a cut from the loan companies including major banks as they do from insurance companies.
That is just business .

Yes i have ,But he has the chance to explain himself , even without your help.
Oh , by the way the Repo yards . there are as far as i know three in udon.
Two are owned by major banks , and the third is a reputable auto auction house that works for several of the other major banks .
All are regulated , and have certain procedures to employ before they even think about a repo , and even then when they have the vehicle in their yard , they have even more regulations to follow before they can sell the vehicle.
Hope this helps with your assumptions.
There there dear, no need to get all snippy. So you have the skinny on the local Thai repo business. I'm happy for you.

Truly I am.
Your welcome . er ,not sure i know what skinny means , but im sure its comlimentary.

Oh f**k me! Now you're a cunning linguist as well?

Tell me it isn't so!

Yes. Since you brought it up, 'Scotty' was a fake Jockinese.

Now, what's your excuse?
