Fasttech Shipping (noboy was answering in the main FT thread)

[Ryan Kelly]

hey guys. sorry to anyone who gets annoyed when a topic with a larger thread is started in its own threads but nobody was answering my question in the FT mega thread. i know that generally the shipping is slow and can take nearly as month. i am in the checkout process and there are two shipping options that are both free. one says up to 30 days and one says 8-14 days. is choosing the 8-14 day option actually going to make a difference or will it take the same amount of time no matter which option i choose

 

[Ryan Kelly]

correction. the 8-14 day option is an additional 22 cents. and if it makes any difference I'm ordering an aspire nautilus

China e-packet is the way to go. I'm over on the eastern shore, and it generally takes 8-10 days once shipped using the China e-packet option.

Probably what makes the biggest difference is if it says 'in stock' or 'ready to ship'. Don't believe 3 days, 1 week, etc. I haven't seen a .22 shipping option but if it's in stock, I'd probably pay that little extra.

it says ships in 5 days so i guess ill hold off and just buy it from a B&M

If no batteries or e-liquid, then choose epacket via China Post. Also split up any orders that show a status of > ships next day. In stock or ships next day orders should be packaged and sent for shipping fairly (24-48 hours) fast. If the stock status indicates a few days, that will obviously delay things. Shipping will then take 8-21 days. My last order was placed on 4/27, sent to shipping on 4/28 and I should have it either tomorrow or Monday. It left NY today.

when should I start getting worried about my order getting held up in customs? I have an order that has batteries, tanks and replacement coils. The order was placed on April 3, due to one product taking longer than others the order was split and the bulk of it was sent to Singapore Post on April 15. My last status update from Singapore Post was on April 25 saying it has been "dispatched overseas Country Code CA"

Its been well over a month now but part of the delay was due to me picking products that weren't ship next day product. How long should I wait before trying to get some information?

It will hang in limbo sometimes for a while. It still has to pass through your Customs. My experience with SP is it enters the bermuda triangle and seems to enter a black hole, but it's just in process. My last SP shipment took over a month that included batteries.

Try this tracking site for all shipments:

Track Global Postal - 17track


The best way to handle fasttech shipping is to order and totally forget about it. By the time it arrives, you've moved onto other things and it's a great surprise to find in your box one day

Thanks for that tracking link. The last update from Singapore post is still from April 25 but according to this app my package arrived in Mississauga today which is only an hour away from me.
