Hi,

Any chance you will be getting in some Firefly kits before
christmas?

They should be with us next week. I am sorry for the delay. I was working with the manufacturer to make some improvements to the device.

 

[lindam]

Thanks!!
I have another convert

 

[ImYourSalt]

I am very excited for these to arrive. I just got the tracker, and will keep you posted.

 

[lindam]

Any word on these yet? I'm getting nervous as it's going to be a Xmas present

 

[ImYourSalt]

Hey... I'm sorry. I noticed a clearance delay on the 12th, and didnt hear back until earlier today about it. Here is the email:

Ty,

The shipment is currently in our sort facility in Liege, Belgium. There was a strike last week which caused a delay in shipments being sent out of the facility. The facility was actually shut down by the Belgium workers...

The shipment is awaiting for the next available flight to be sent to the United States. I apologize for this delay with your shipment.

Kind regards,

US West CS

Again... my apologies for the delay. The order was ready the last week of November, and we had every reason to expect delivery, the first week of this month. Some things you just can't predict.

 

[lindam]

Ty,

Thanks for the response...I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

 

[ImYourSalt]

I have called them this morning. The strike has ended, and the package should be on the way soon. They are just a bit backed up now. I will keep checking, and let you know if anything changes.

 

[lindam]

Thanks Ty!!

I'm thinking if you don't have them by the 20th I should order maybe an Ego starter kit.

 

[ImYourSalt]

Order made by the 20th, should arrive by Christmas. We can work late that day to ensure it.

I just got another call from the courier. The package is out of Belgium now, and should be in LA tomorrow. This means we should have them Monday or Tuesday. Sort of cutting it close... My apologies for the delay...

 

[lindam]

You guys are great!!! I would rather have the Firefly. I can't remember if you guys do overnight but if you do that's probably the way I'll go. My sister-in-law is really excited aboout the Firefly so I would rather give her what I know she will love.

 

[ImYourSalt]

It's not on the website.. but I am happy to arrange expedited shipping. Call me Monday afternoon... or email. ty@liberty-flights.com
I can provide the details on that, as well as an update on the stock. Maybe I can even arrange a pre-order for you.

Currently... most shipping is done through USPS. for really large orders, we ship FedEx. But I have also set up an account with UPS, and and looking into the other options that are available to us. I want to make shipping a little clearer on the website. Ideally... I want to provide options, with the costs and expected delivery times, so the customer can make the call.

I wish I read this yesterday! My friend really wanted the Firefly, but felt it was cutting to close so she ordered an Ego-T kit instead. I may just have to get a Firefly batter for fun anyway.

 

[lindam]

Personally I love my Ego-T (I love those B tanks), but for someone just starting out I think the Firefly is a really great way to go as the tanks are easier to fill for a beginner.

 

[ImYourSalt]

The new firefly kits kill be standard 510 set-up. 510 atomizers, cartridges, and cones. But.. the batteries are standard EGO compatible... so any any of the EGO XL, T, or the new C atomizers will be compatible.

 

[ImYourSalt]

I just got a call asking me for clearance info.... so it's probably getting released for delivery soon. ETA is Thursday.

[sixstringgirl]

[ImYourSalt]
