I'll see what Doris says about possibly stocking them. There is a reseller spamming them in another sub-forum for $65 (mod and two attys).
If you are going to complain at least make your statements make sense.
First question don't even know what your saying.
Second, What are they supposed to shine shoes with? They sell mechs and attys.
Third, RMB's is in Chinese dollars. Try using a conversion table or change your preference. You can do that on FT also.
Lastly, Shipping is charge with tracking number if you want it.
Just my thoughts for your penny.
1- The prices are higher.
2- They charge for shipping.
3- I may have being at a different Focalecig maybe.
4- I deal in RMBs all the time.
Not every company is authorized to export from China.
The broker does the conversions in Hong Kong.
Being there, done that.
Even if Shenzhen is just a puddle away,
you'll have to go to Texas to get a visa
in order to set a foot in the mainland.
You must be to young and unfamiliar with
the expression of "shining shoes". My bad.
I'm not flaming, fuming, trolling or disrupting or anything of the sort. Just in case.
Just asking a question. Which BTW, you did not reply.
And expressing an opinion. Warranted by the 1st amendment.
Awaiting for your kind reply,
I remain,
Yours Truly.

So... should I see if Doris will pick this up? lol
I can't resist weird and this thing screams weird. I have no problem purchasing stuff purely for the novelty value - practicality be damned.
And the "specs"...
I'm a big fan of the no explosion technology.
Anti-explosion sorta requires it to be purchased.
Right? Right!
I emailed Doris a link to the alibaba listing. We'll see what she has to say after she's able to stop laughing.
Nobody answered because a) your post didn't make much sense and b) it sure seemed derogatory. No one says you have to buy anything from them. The FT thread is down the hall.
there's a way to link them without having to create a new account
pretty sure about this

Focal's China warehouse doesn't charge for shipping unless you buy battery's, if you want tracking there is a fee for it. The USA warehouse they have does charge for shipping but you get it quicker. Huge majority of the folks here have had positive experiences repeatedly with Focal and many buy from both Focal and FT. I would think it would be clear to anyone just from the length of this thread (and the prior thread that grew to 15000 post http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-vaping-discussion/507143-focalecig-new-fasttech.html) that there are a lot of people happy with Focal. So I'm a little lost at why you come here and posted remarks like that unless you intended to snipe. Your post pretty much speaks for itself.
They just listed the atties, so maybe...So... should I see if Doris will pick this up? lol

I've always wondered if combo flavors would taste better if they were separate, like cake/pie a la mode, cinnamon roll and coffee, PBJ, ...
I have a Yosen V1 Zero and the Infinite Zero (Yosen V2 repackaged). Both read ohms slightly lower than what they are. My 1.2-1.3 builds always read 1.1-1.2 on the Zeros. No biggie since the power is easily adjustable. The 510 on my V1 is fine but I don't like the extra punch from the chip. The V2 power delivery is a little flat but it suits my style of vaping better.
Will probably trade or sell the V1 for cheap when I get around to it.
By the way, does anybody know someone that will take gear or cash to swap a DNA board into the Zero for me. I don't have the time, skill, or resources to do it myself.

Welcome to my world .. now you will understand why I cannot use everything as soon as I receive it. I like to start my photos while the device is clean, then I have to shoot the build while I am actually building it (atties only of course).
You should definitely let Doris know about the fitment issues on the SX though, so she can follow up with the manufacturer. My second one came out of the same batch as yours, but my second one came better than the first one I have. Both my fire button and sleeve fitment are totally on point with this second one. I was happy with the first one that I received directly from Eachely, but I did need to press fit the body sleeve more to keep it from moving. I didn't realize that the second switch was "better" until I had it to make the comparison.
You will need to press fit the extra sleeve when you receive it. I have only tried one of the sleeves on, but it was loosing fitting so I will need to press it to fit.
It looks mint in your photo so good job with fixing it up.

FC Mail!
My SX Zero and Marquis showed up this morning.
Marquis appears to be very nicely made. This is a unit I'll be reviewing for VC - not sure when I'll get around to throwing a build in it... probably not until I'm ready to write the review and shoot build pics. May be a couple of weeks out since I have some other stuff inbound for review.
Now, as for the SX Zero... I'm not super impressed with it out of the box. The sleeve fitment is sloppy, even after tweaking it a little. Every time I pick it up to use it the sleeve shifts around which promises to drive me crazy. Hopefully the black sleeve I ordered will fit a bit better. The screen had a lot of adhesive residue on it which took several alcohol swabs to remove (or mostly remove, anyway). There are also some blemishes in the finish. I'd probably be a little less dissatisfied had this been a $50 unit. As it stands, I expected a bit more at the $83 price point. Not sure if I'll have it replaced or not. On a positive note, it vapes wonderfully. Granted, I've only had it for about an hour but the chip seems to be a winner - just wish the build quality was better.
edit: I've fixed the sloppy sleeve fitment. I have some 3M vinyl scraps in my desk drawer and lined the sleeve with a piece. Sleeve fits tight now with no play at all. I think I can live with the other issues.
edit #2: some quick SX Zero porn from my desk at work
I feel your pain. My SX has been less than stellar (more problems than yours) but I sort of made my piece with it. as long as the chip holds up i'll be alright
saw that infinite zero clone again yesterday. that thing has excellent QC (can't speak for the 510 or the chip)

I'll let Doris know, for sure. She's going to be sick of hearing from me... I've already sent her two emails today, lol. Just wait until I see her on Skype later!
I asked her about the freakishly awesome Hell's Gate mod and whether or not FC will be stocking the Kanger Subtank Mini and Nano. Normally, I wouldn't be interested in the Subtank but I'll be reviewing the MVP20W and figured I should put a "clearo" on it for the review (using the 1.2ohm factory coil head). Since I have to buy a clearo to use for the review, may as well be one I'd actually use after the fact, lol.
