You have to take it case by case, but I have bought many from Thailand and never had a problem. In fact I just did:

Where are you from?

I know a couple people who sell tons of vintage to Thailand, so there's some great stuff there. HOWEVER, there's also a quite active Levi's alteration industry based there (ie: fake Big Es) and I believe that I've also seen many vintage (and modern jackets) painted and falsely resold by Thai sellers as authentic period pieces.

I think that you've come to the right place. The guys on this forum are pretty good at spotting fakes and I've learned alot from them.

If there's an auction that you're interested in post it in the category "real or repro" and the pros can tell you what they think.
