I was tempted by that. I already have the white one and thought about getting the desert one but they are out of stock on it. I’ve noticed that their shipping is almost double of some of the other UK vendors.Lost Vape Thelema Solo DNA 100C @Ecigone for $77.29 before S&H. S&H may be a bit pricey, but it'll be heavily expedited. A little over $100 to the doorstep in 1-2 business days is pretty decent.
Yeah, it's a pretty penny, but the shipping is pretty top notch. Pay a normal $15 S&H and get it in a week or two, or pay $10 more and get it in 1-2 business days. I dunno, if I'm getting a sizeable order of something around $100, $10 isn't a huge hike. What kind of time frame did those other UK sites ship their stuff?I was tempted by that.

When I bought the Alieno from them I didn’t get it in 1-2 days. When I went to buy the SXmini Vi, they were double the shipping compared to vaping 101. If I was placing a large order it wouldn’t be as big of a deal but $22 on a $50 order was a little hard to swallow for me.Yeah, it's a pretty penny, but the shipping is pretty top notch.

Yeah, that's fair. I don't remember what I paid for the first time, but I don't think it was expedited. Pretty sure it was the standard 3-4 business days. When I checked the Thelema Solo DNA 100C, the S&H was $26 and that one was 1-2 business days. But I don't disagree that it's a bit steep. Still a steal of a price on a Stabwood, but yeah it really gives you less of the "yes!" feeling from the purchase.When I bought the Alieno from them I didn’t get it in 1-2 days.

The only problem with the UK at the moment is Royal Mail and they are also on strike a bit now and then this autumn apparently.If I was spending over $100 like you mentioned, I wouldn’t have stressed over it as much. If things keep going the way they are in China then we may have no choice but to order from the UK.
It is with a heavy heart that FastTech has decided to close down our business.
This decision has been taken predominantly because of the new legislation on the vape industry. The new measures and restrictions make the road ahead much more uncertain, which also leads us no longer able to remain competitive on price and delivery. We did our best to avoid getting to this point. However, under the current industry regulation, we have been left with no choice but forced to close down.
It's clear to me that the folks saying it would never impact China were not closely following the news out of China. The Chinese government has been talking about implementing legislation for several years. IIRC, their new laws went into effect in September or October of this year.And I remember all the folks saying it will never impact China. Yeah, right.
I was just about to list half of my vape stuff on the classies. Now, maybe not.
I wonder whether the Fasttech closing is the tip of the iceberg, with more to follow. It may be that others' business models can adjust to work around the restrictions.
