That's pretty impressive, I've avoided ordering from them before worried about shipping times, might have to reconsider that.

 

[BigBoyBlue]

I've ordered from them numerous times. Shipping wait times are usually 2 to 3 weeks. Usually a week to a week and a half of that wait time is Canada Post related. It isn't too bad considering they are on the other side of the world. I also ordered batteries which came in around 1.5 months. So far I've been very happy with fasttech. You can't beat the prices and the quality is pretty good.

Every shipment will be different. I made an order Nov 22 and another Nov 28 The nov 28th order showed up Yesterday Sunday!! never saw that before.
The nov 22 order is still on it's way quite possibly get it tomorrow

Batteries are the main heartache as they typically come on a slow boat. And there is currently renewed emphasis on (un)safety of lithium batteries in air freight.

 

[vincom]

batteries will probably take longer due to safety and inspections.
when ordering anything u should check its stock status to see when its available for shipping b4 placing the order.

its now in edmonton.........fasttech will probably be my goto supplier unless i need something immediately

That's faster than I've gotten things from the states to canada. lol

 

[BigBoyBlue]

That is way faster than anything I have received also. Seems like sometimes they really impress.

 

[vincom]

lol, it took longer within canada than from china to canada, if i lived in bc i would of gotten it within a week

 

[esoxhntr]

it will vary.. one of my orders sat in canada customs for weeks. those sneaky guys don't update it until it clears either so it looked like it was riding a dolphin across the pacific for 3 weeks. i think my orders have taken anywhere from 2 weeks to over a month.

 

[Heavyrocker]

On average for me is 2 to 3 weeks,

 

[SaabFanatic]

From 2.5 weeks to 1 month. Last order sat in customs for 1 week but usually it clears right away.

I always pay the extra $2 for Canada epacket from FT, and it's usually here by the 6th business day after it ships.

My experiences are about the same. Fastest one left fasttech on a Saturday and I had it by Thursday

I'm too cheap to pay the extra $2 so I have to put up with the wait.

 

[Alter]

If you live on the west coast then the Epacket lands in Richmond and saves you lots of shipping time traveling across the country. IMO once a package lands in Mississauga it sits in customs for eons before being released and Richmond's customs is usually somewhat faster and once released only a couple days to get to my house rather than 10+ days shipping from Mississauga to my house.
Don't get me started with Canada Posts crappy shipping cause watching tracking my package goes from Mississauga to Richmond (past my house once) then to Cranbrook (past my house twice) then to my local post office, its irritating to track packages I have land in Mississauga.

 

[retired1]

Right? I watch it go from Mississauga to Stoney Creek. If I were to look out the upstairs window, I'd probably see the darned truck on the QEW as it passes by. >.<

 

[cgreen]

im in Victoria BC. and my shipping with epacket is usally 5 buisness days
