Fastech Trainwreck

[Vinnybagodoughnuts]

I have gotten other things from Chinese vendors in a timely fashion.That was really my point.It can be done.
It's not like there are no other shipping options.Whomever is to blame it is the retailer who get's hurt in the end. Making customer's mad is something I try to avoid.
Edit- In my case I got the wrong tracking number. I opened a ticket 19 days ago and am still waiting for help.I don't think I can blame the shipper for that.

Other retailers aren't using epacket, though. They use shipping agents like 4PX that use DHL and they don't offer a free shipping option like FT. And from what I've seen, the shipping rates at these other retailers have gone up a few bucks since March.

If you want free shipping on FT, you get epacket and therefore you wait months.

Not true. Free shipping on FT is China Post first class. A month or two is normal. ePacket is a paid upgrade.

Many of my parts are shipped by ePacket. It's usually faster than the 3rd party shippers. Even now. Just got some neck plates that I ordered less than 3 weeks ago. The shipping fee was $0.67

When I've ordered from FT, it's kind of like a set it and forget it thing. And then when it finally shows up, it's a nice surprise. You probably delay your package more, the more you look at the tracking info!

I'm kinda disappointed in the speed of delivery of items ordered from China.

I ordered a 4 year Panda and it still hasn't arrived,my bamboo supplier is on hold waiting for me to place an order.

3 weeks sounds pretty good. I have been hesitant about buying anything from China after hearing horror stories about shipping times recently. The Brunhilde is one tank I have been really interested in. That and the BDvape Precisio.

As much as I hate waiting 2 months, I really like the $3 comet rda I just got.

I'm guessing you are a fan of the Brunhilde. I think I might need to get me one of those.

Edit: any more questions on the subject let's take it off this thread somewhere else

I would be interested in the Brunhilde if it was under the 30 buck range as well. I never see them lower than the low to mid 40 buck range.

A little tip for future Fasttech orders placed.... Upgrade your shipping
I placed an order with Fasttech on the 23rd of this month, it was shipped out the next day and got to Australia on the 28th. Already cleared customs and due for delivery tomorrow.
If I'm not mistaken that's a world record
I paid a whopping extra $3.10 to upgrade the shipping to Expedited Air.
So it definitely pays to pay a tiny little extra unless you want to wait for 3 months
