the minute you ordered from paypal there was a page that showed the order information.

it was the receipt and said you need to save this information for later if you do not have an account and want to check your shipping information.
in your email you should have received the standard paypal statement.

if you have an account you can sign in and check the shipping status.

Hello All,

So i placed an order on Dec 27, 2013....bought couple of k100s. Now heres the thing...I paid via Paypal but I did not receive any tracking info or confirmation from focal. It just said that my payment was confirmed. My apologies for not reading through this thread if this issue was already discussed..but I am just worried that I won't receive my order!!!!

Anyone care to shine some light on this?

--If I have to go through a dispute with PayPal...I will not order from this site again lol..

Log into your account and go to your orders, click your order number and it will give you their processing and a tracking number. They are not good on sending emails. Hope that helps.

Edit: Just create an account using your paypal info and it will show your orders. I know it works because that is what I did.

Yes you did miss that part in the thread ... You will not receive your tracking# by email, you must go to the website and log into your account using the email address attached to your Paypal account, and enter your order # and all of your order status will appear, ie: your shipments tracking# once it has shipped. Their order system is unique, as was previously mentioned. Don't worry, they didn't run off with your money.

Vapemail!

Got a couple of orders from FC today both placed 21st December and posted with Swiss Post to the UK. Will post back later, ironically they both arrived in less time than orders from FT during the peak postal xmas and new year period.

Looks good so far.... better quality than FT.

Happy new year of the horse!

;)

Oh good for you! Glad your order went well.. What did you order anyways, and show pics if you have time to take them. I like seeing customer pics of the actual merchandise.

I still have a few more days before I receive my orders, but at this point I choose to be of the mindset "save the best for last" .. I am chomping at the bit to get my Caravela, Kraken, and Fogger V3. Patience is a virtue. :)

Well makes that 7 incoming :facepalm:
Found the Dragon Spinner in the states, so I ordered another one. Could not believe an hour after I ordered it (on a Saturday no less) I got a tracking number. Ordered USPS priority 2 to 3 days, so should have it before Wednesday next week. Will be nice to get an order and not have to wait 3 to 4+ weeks for it to arrive. I just ordered the tank for it from China, so I guess I'll just have to use one I have around here until that order gets here the end of January/first of February.

Must Try to Forget Credit Card Number :rolleyes:

Burnie you are so spoiled!!! :p You poor dear, you will have to suffer through with one of your hundred other tanks until the matching tank arrives from China ... the injustice! :laugh: Well, if I ever fall on hard vape gear times, I know who to call for help. ;-)

Ordered a TGT 22nd should be sooner than FTs TGT replacment.

OOOOH ... I want the Taifun GT, I was gonna order that too, but got the Foggers instead, but I still want a Taifun. I wish I would have gotten that instead of the stainless steel Rocket from Chinabuye, which showed up in a polished finish instead of brushed like the photo. I am thinking about selling it in the classified.

All good with the orders received one was a KFL and the other a KF, Swiss post seems to be quicker than SGP. Hoping your vapemail comes soon you have some nice vape gear on order there, vaping has certainly taught me patience! I bought alot of vape gear to start my vape journey being a new vaper .... now I have what I am happy with I will be learning some vape craft and enjoying some vaping.

The light was bad here today I took some quick pics of the KFL, it's nice but it's not a clone more a fake so to speak, I have Chinese genes being Eurasian I know all about how good they are at copying everything I laughed when I saw it! It's of higher quality than the TobreCo (I know it's ToBeCo it's my sense of humour) clone I got from FT but it was also more expensive and it's a straight KFL copy. The finish is a bit more brushed, it's all stainless, all the threads are tight comparable to a real Svoemesto KFL/KFL+, chimney and the drip tip fits snug (unlike the ToBeCos I have see) and the deck feels nice. It maybe made by EhPro but I don't know I wasn't aware they copied the box and seals exactly as the SM one! There are so many manufacturers now who knows? although the angled top piece suggests it's a known clone maker.

It doesn't come with a clear tank, personally I don't like them due to tank cracking and fragility (I have an Ithaka clone and it's very easy to break them there is always a risk of threading stainless steel onto plastic ;)

The wood tube mod (from listed dimensions) will work well with an IMR 18650 (AW 1600 mah ) and the i-clear tank that comes with it has replacement dual coil atomizer heads you can buy in different resistances..
The marstech kk is telescopic and will probably take 18350's and 18650's (again go with an AW IMR type).. I don't know a lot about the replacement attys for the tank but I'm sure someone here can help you with that.. Although for future reference try to do a little research before you buy any type of mod, so you can have a better idea of what it is you're getting..

I also placed my first order at Focal and I am hoping for this place to be a nice niche for vape gear.. I do wish they would give a bit more of a detailed description on their items but they are still new.. I really don't mind it so much cause I already know what I was looking for.. Good Luck and also look locally for the required batteries you'll need.. Both super-T's and orbtronic sell quality batteries,,,

while I agree about better descriptions it has to be remembered that FC, fasttech and a few others are mainly gadget shops that decided to add ecig gear they arent vape shops so they just add whatever description comes with the product packaging.

while fasttech was new to us last year and FC is new to us now, it it good to remember there are several chinese shops like this and the odd lot style of products everywhere is a typical website over there and these places have already been around for some time.

I do have to say wallbuys took the extra initiative in creating focalcig and shows they are thinking ahead by realizing ecigs are big business now and deserve it's own storefront. I like that they also support cassa, while it means nothing for the product quality it shows they are paying attention to the community and taking steps to try and be a part of it no matter how small. whereas with FT its just more cheap junk to push out the door and I sometimes wonder if they even understand how some of their gear is supposed to work.

Yeah I can see your point and I'm fine with the details they provide or specifications they put down enough to purchase items and if there is something else I need to know I would just research it elsewhere..
@nikkita thanks for pointing out this place !! I also appreciate everyone sharing their knowledge and experiences as well...

Oh this is so nice ... it may be wrong of me, but I like that it has the "designed in Russia, made in Germany" on the bottom ... so I guess Del was correct and it did come in a Svoemesto box. I don't see them listed anymore, they a different KFL by a new manufacturer, which also looks good, and I have seen actual pics of it.

Enjoy this my dear, its looks lovely, and thank you for posting the pictures too. :)
