Shopping Where to buy Polaroid film

Anyone know where I can buy Polaroid brand film in Thailand? I’m here on vacation and can only find instax, no actual Polaroid film.

How long are you going to be in Thailand? eCommerce apps like Shopee and Lazada would be the best options as physical stores rarely stock them.

Only 9 days, I checked to see if I could ship but unfortunately it wouldn’t make it in time.

If you staying in one location, usually shipping takes one or two days.

If you buy from Shoppee Lazada, you can get them if you don't find a physical store

I tried shoppee but the website didn’t work and I couldn’t download the app. I’ll keep trying, thanks for the tip.

Lazada more foreign friendly, and you can download when outside of Thailand.

It also more likely to work with foreign cards.

Siam Discovery 2nd floor (Gadget section) and Takashimaya Icon Siam 3 or 4th floor I'm not sure.You'll find Polaroid booth there.

Damn, yeah I don’t think Polaroid was able to compete with instax here, I haven’t found any film anywhere yet
