This is new!

Hongkong Post - Notices - Guidance on Posting of Outbound Air Mail Items

No more paying the extra few cents for HKP...going straight thru with the "freebie" 30+ days "slow boat" option

Pass the word...but please PASS THE TRUTH!

And told you it's not ONLY FT that is getting hammered!
eBay Warns of Delays from Hong Kong Due to Lithium-Battery Ban

damn. i chose the standard way that FT "recommends". i wish i had discovered this news yesterday. looks like my batts will get taken. but maybe the fact that theyre Sonys with nothing on the label saying theyre lithium could be a good thing. a longshot, but i guess its possible that they could get the benefit of the doubt. not likely, but hey. c'mon, its only one 2-pack of batts in a plastic container. please, HKP? can i please have my batts? theyre safe i swear; safe chemistry damnit LOL!

on second thought, looks like ive still got a chance. i sent a message to FT to change my shipping option based on what they think will be the least likely to have an issue. i trust theyve got the most up-to-date knowledge on this. im heavily considering just cancelling the item altogether. i mean, i just ordered it yesterday and the other item in my order isnt ready to ship, so ive got a little time. Hmmmmmm what to do what to do...

Do you mean the China post and not USPS? If you're in the US, USPS upgrade is like between 25c-75c extra :3

welp, i decided to cancel the battery portion of my order. i was just too sketched out. sure i wanted the 30A beasts, but the shipping was an issue for me. some other smaller issues existed that i was willing to overlook but the shipping thing combined with the UltraVaping deal that just popped up equaled a cancellation of my batt order. UV has MNKEs up for $15/pair, $3 shipping. $18.00 (2xMNKE) vs $11.76 (2xSony30A) is fine with me for peace of mind ordering from a USA vendor. not to mention quicker shipping. im a happy vaper. six bucks aint gonna break my bank :)
