I agree on appearance. Wish I knew what the body material was. Could you weigh the difference between the brushed model and the other anodized models?

Just did. batteries out of both and they feel essentially the same in weight. I can't tell if the brushed silver is aluminum or just a nice refinish of the the other. It does make the Pico stand out as a seemingly better quality of mod from a look and feel perspective, and really solidifies its place as a great deal for the money. Hard to think of anything else on the market than can compete with the looks and features for a $30 or less price point.

I completely agree with you. The Pico is an aesthetically pleasing and thoughtful design. I like the way the battery faces down towards vent holes on the bottom, instead of towards your face. I paid $34, with the Melo III and shipping included. Seems like a great value to me.

haha , I have four picos and weighed them all

4 different weights :eek:

pink 89g
all blk 90g
gray 88g
brushed silver 91g

they all feel the same to my hand

:rolleyes:

Ah, there you go. :) That means brushed silver body is also aluminum, plated the same as the top and bottom caps. Should be more durable than the anodized ones. Thanks.

LOVE my (White) Pico.

Was thinkin' of getting a second one...but after seeing your "size comparison" pic...decided to order a Target Mini...

In PBusardo's 7 Mod "Mini Marathon"...the Pico came in #1 and the Target Mini came in #2 (after I deducted his highly subjective "Looks" points)...

Pico...23mm x 45mm x 72mm...74,520mm³...135gm..."ergonomics":4pts...score: 38.5

Target Mini...27mm x 34mm x 58mm...53,244mm³...108gm..."ergonomics":5pts...score: 35.15

For $29.99 (with FREE USA shipping)...how could I NOT???

I ordered iStick Pico at GearBest from 14/7 and until now it is still in Processing...
is it normal procedure since it already near a week?
I never buy from GB before, at least on FT they show you how long it takes to depart if the product is delayed.

I had/have the same issue. They were out of stock on the brushed silver I ordered (think the black was in stock) and are waiting for the order to be filled before they ship both items.

This is the reply they gave me when I created a support ticket:

Thank you for contacting Gearbest about your order.

We are processing it.

However, please note for the BRUSHED SILVER one is back-ordered.
We can offer you 3 options:

Option 1 Wait a little more
We expect to ship the item in 10-15 business days if there is no delay on supplier’s side.

Once we ship it you will receive an email from us.

Option 2 Exchange with another item of your choice
Please send us the URL of the product you would like to choose instead.

If there is any price difference with the original item, we will either refund it to you on your wallet or send you an invoice to pay for it.


Option 3 Cancel this order
In this case, we will refund to you on your GB wallet(store credit) and reward you with extra points(e.g. If your refund is 1USD = 5 points ,3USD =3*5 points => get 15 points etc). You can use these for your future purchase.

To know more about wallet: GB Wallet | GearBest.com

Learn more about points: My Points | GearBest.com

The refund can be completed within 1 business day.

I opted to just wait since I have a few picos and a few more coming from other vendors.

Wish I could be of help but have never ordered from there. Sorry. :(

I ordered the brushed silver too... oh well I think I'll do the same as you and wait for it to be ready to ship it to me. Thanks Fozzy :)

No problem, thanks ScandaLeX ;)

If it's coming from China, regardless of the vendor, and what they say. It's best just to forget you ordered it rather than worry about when it might show up! I used to wait until I was drunk to make Fasttech orders so I wouldn't remember the next day, the package would show up and it was like Christmas, opening packages to see what they were!
Now I'm forced to be sober so that little sense of joy is gone from my life!

lol wish I could like that post twice. I had to close my other browser with all my carts after filling them while drinking so I could review them when I was sober before pulling the trigger.... still spent way more than I wanted to.
A few years ago a couple friends and I were pooling our money to make a FT order, I'd filled the cart with the alloted price and they came over the next day to review it. "Man, you must really like this dripper, you've got four in the cart!" It took us a while to get it all sorted out as I'd see something I liked, then run across it again and add it. I learned then to keep orders simple when alcohol was involved!
I've also done like you, get to adding things here and there thinking "meh, it's not that much!" Until I add them all up, yeah my wife wouldn't be happy with that total on the CC bill! Even alcohol induced shopping can't override good sense when it comes to she who must be obeyed!

I get FT orders in 8-10 days. Stuff has to be "In Stock or "Ships Next Day" when you order it. Also upgrade the shipping for a few dollars, ePacket was quick to Canada but now DHL Global Mail is the fastest.

GearBest is the last supplier I would order from out of all the Chinese vendors.
