Does anyone know where you can find rolling papers? Is there any rolling tobacco to be found anywhere?
Can someone tell me where I can buy permethrin and a mosquito bed net please. Directions/address would help a lot too as I will be arriving in a few weeks and have never been to Hanoi before. Cheers!
Lately I've found myself being attacked rather vigourously by mosquitos whilst I'm sleeping, which I'm not enjoying. I can't seem to locate the insects responsible (although I'm pretty sure they're mosquitos rather than bed bugs or fleas), and the idea of using a net makes me feel a bit claustrophobic. I heard that there's some kind of effective electronic mosquito deterrent / zapper that one can plug into a power socket - does anyone have details on this product, or know where I could buy on...
Has anyone bought a decent air purifier in Hanoi or know where to get one? I live next to 2 highways so the air is pretty foul.
Hi, I tried finding this, but did not get any search results on here (though some on google) Any ideas about the price for air purifiers? I saw there is an IQ air showroom in Syrena shopping mall, but can't find any prices online. Any ideas about the price for an air purifier for my bedroom? Thanks a lot.
Does anyone know where I can get mini desktop computers? I need something for the office computers that is less bulky/ugly than the standard atx boxes. Something in the line of this http://vatgia.com/tugia&module=product&view=detail&record_id=4645013 It would be used for surfing, printing, and office documents, so not much power needed, nor a DVD reader.

Hello fellow Hanoians, Where can I buy a decent used bicycle? (I asume a new bike would get stolen pretty quick!)
Which brand of dehumidifier would people suggest buying? I want something that works very well indeed. In another post, the name "Delongui" was dropped, but that's all I've been able to see - are there any other good brands? Also, for DVD players that will play all regions, which brand would people suggest? And where's the best place to buy it? My housemates recommended cheap & nasty at Metro, however there are quite a few C&Ns to select between. Thanks R

Then it hit me - how difficult is it to get Victoria's Secret, Old Navy, or anothe...
