There's a set of the 1926-28 Syaamara.t.thassa Tepi.taka.m (Pali Tipitaka of Siam) in 45 volumes at a library here, so I haven't had any reason to order from Thailand. However this version was reprinted as late as 1995, so I'd think there's a good chance copies are available. If you find a good ordering contact in Thailand I'd also be interested in hearing of it.

There is also an edition from 1960-1990: Mahaacu.laatepi.taka.m (Pali Tipitaka of Mahachulalongkorn University), and an edition from 1987: Dayyara.t.thassa Sangiititepi.taka.m (Pali Tipitaka Council of Thailand). I don't know if these are currently in print.

best regards,
