Not a very feature rich mod for the money unless I'm missing something. From what I can tell it does variable voltage only.

You could get a MVP 2.0 with more features and battery capacity for even less money.

Either way you would be at the mercy of either China Post or Hong Kong Post and the USPS and they are notoriously slow and it could get here in a few weeks or it could be a month or more. Did I mention that shipping from China is incredibly slow?

ive got a bunch of juice ordered from them coming - this is about day 12 since I placed the order - i would have already received an order from fasttech by now.. i hope theyre legit, but the tracking number they gave me doesnt work.. im not expecting great quality or speed, but hoping to get lucky & find a couple decent juices at $3-$4 for 50ml..

I've never heard of this one, but I'd bought directly from a China supplier before (4-5 years ago), and had a really bad experience that ended up foregoing the vaping experience for a long time. Tech has improved since then, but I would still be very leery of buying from a non-US vendor. One advantage US vendors have is that they usually at least try out the product before they sell it, even though it probably originates in China. I imagine you can find a comparable deal at several US sites, and have a shorter delivery time! :2c:

Hong Kong Post is going ..... postal ... right now with all the FastTech orders. Take a look at the stickies on their blog.

I ordered a ton of liquid from Zainy.Net and its going China Post and hasn't updated in over a week. Zainy got it out the door quickly but its out of her control after that.

They are legit, but some people have said that they received the wrong products from the one they ordered. When ticket was opened, they are asked to top up a certain amount to get the correct item. I'm one of those suckers. Lol. Correct item was then sent to me.

I would avoid them. Their prices aren't that great anyway.

Just thought I'd update this -
I placed two orders with chinabuye -

order#1, 9 big bottles of juice & a syringe.. order was placed on 9/2/13, shipped on 9/5/13, and according to USPS, passed through New York State today.. (I'm on the west side of the country, and my stuff usually goes through San Francisco, but whatever.. it's coming).. $28 shipped for 300ml's, I figure it's worth trying..

order #2 was placed on 9/17/13, I did the cheap shipping without tracking & received it today - 11 days?!

Anyway, super happy with the product - 5 atomizers for my eroll for $6 shipped.. they're about $5 each for genuine Joye ones, so this is a coup.

just another update - i received my 9 bottles of juice from chinabuye - these were the generic / unbranded juices in 30-50ml bottles for just a few bucks each.. out of the 9 bottles, I might try to vape 2.. the others were so noxious I'm not even gonna try.

that said, they were packed nice & shipping wasnt really bad - they actually shipped everything signature required, which could be a problem for some people..

i'd order from them again if I wasnt in a big hurry for something, but I'd take the reviews on that site with a big bucket of salt.. most of the juices I ordered had good reviews, and some of that stuff could not possibly have been vaped by a human. there's just no way *anyone* is vaping "nutty armpit" flavor & raving about it later, even if some cultures have different taste buds, theres just no way anyone actually likes that stuff.
