China supplier Bestecig.com experience

[Fedor]

- I prefer Registered China Post Airmail Parcel, takes only 2-3 days longer than EMS to DE according to UNEX statistics (9 days) and is much cheaper, and the local EMS subsidary here charges high extra customs process fees surprisingly. None of >10 parcels got lost so far.

- Confirm, but one of DSE103 usb batteries died after 2 days, but warranty process is superior, they send replacement without having got the broken battery back yet

Will choose them as new favorite seller.

From my working experience in China, I know that many chinese avoid China Post for international parcels because shipments gets lost often. I do not have any personal experience with this but i've heard more than a dozen people tell me this. Wonder how true that is?

>30 orders, none lost until now. EMS with GDSK as the german delivery service is a real knock off, no pricelist, they just inform you that you have to pay their fee (whatever they tell you) or the order returns. modern pirates in my opinion.

EMS is no option for private buyers in germany, you will get knocked off!

We talk about registered airmail, if lost, seller gets 31,90€ back from world post contract insurance, please avoid unregistered airmail sellers.

Only way is to threaten them with court/police to handover the parcel, they don't need to deliver it, just call the police and go with them to the GDSK storage place, I've done that once

That's right, look here:

Anyway, good court-attackable, then

Back on-topic - my third order for eliquid been placed with bestecig.com. Amazing that you can send $150 cash by western union and rely on the order being hand-delivered to your door after a week.
Beci sent an email to confirm all is good - unusually careful service - they really do want your custom that's for sure....

Maybe that's changed and GdSK is fired or contracted now by Deutsche Post:

02.09.2009
Welcome to new member - Germany
Germany has joined the EMS Cooperative as a provisional member - there are now 157 Cooperative members.

:// EMS Cooperative

If GdSK is still in someone should file a complaint against them to EMS Coop because of bad and customer unfriendly business practice.

The only problem i have had is trying to pay via credit card. Not sure if its because they are in china or what, but my bank declines the transactions. Payment via paypal works even though i hate paypal. Always had fast service and shipping and their 801 atomizers are great! I'd avoid the usb pass throughs they sell though. Every single one I have bought (4 total) has failed.

Please feedback to them so they can enhance quality

Maybe adaption problems to atomizer resistance variation.

My failing DSE103 passthru drew large current and liquid burned nearly and smelled poisonous, but that was with Heaven Gift's atomizers. I will order attys from bestecig next. I assume they were designed for older series DSE103 >= 4OHMs atomizers, but HG's new series are ~3OHMs (cold state).

The second passthru hasn't failed yet but killed 2 atomizers in a few days instead.

Surprisingly best-ecig told me they cannot deliver e-liquid with standard registered airmail service and EMS impossible to Germany due to GDSK knock-off, so will keep at Heaven Gifts as favourite and take their new liquids anyway.

Just received my new supply of stuff from bestescig today, Sunday morning, and I ordered/paid them by Western Union last Monday.
Came by the usual China Post EMS courier in the usual blue bubblewrap package. Finally getting the hang of opening the parcel now :-)
