How long does a fasttech order take to get to you?

[Joules_Verne]

2 to 3 weeks for me in France, nearly always have liquid in them so always Singapore Post.
Always over 20USD so registered air-mail, but SGPost tracking is feeble and is always down at weekends.
2 sets of Sony VTC5 batteries, ordered separately, first set got caught up in Malaysia Post SNAFU and took 4 1/2 months but got here OK,
second set via HK post is on the boat now, expect 5-6weeks from departure HongKong 5Nov

I usually receive my orders in 2-3 weeks, I've placed around 10 orders with them so far and the longest was a little over one month but it was sent with free shipping and no tracking which I normally never do. Best advice was already given if you make an order it's best to forget about it and be reminded once it shows. For their prices I can wait.

I'm just north of you, and when I ordered my vamo, it only took about 2 weeks.

Think I'm up to about order number 30 from FT now

So far they've taken anything from 7-30 days to arrive here in the UK. My latest order has batteries though, so it's coming by snail mail - probably around 3 months for that one.

Average is about 14 days though

 

[EBates]

I've placed 15 orders in the last year with FT
Average time from order to delivery = 20.7 days
Overseas to USPS = 11.3 days
USPS delivery = 4.3 days
Note: a couple of orders were out of stock

ive made a few orders through fasttech and in all my orders its been 3 weeks to 2.5 months for my orders to get to my door and all items were in stock i think they just pile things in a shipping container till its full and send them all at ounce

 

[joelmora89]

When I order it takes 8-14 days to get to my house, but I always make sure it's says in stock. That's why some people orders takes forever. By the way I'm in the bay area CALIFORNIA

 

[Adiit]

I'm in japan.
Usually takes 3 weeks.
But worst case it took 3 months.

 

[Spencer87]

I am in Japan, About 10-15 days... But I order from them a lot, it was ten days, more recently, its been closer to 15 days

 

[Johnnysalinas]

Here in the US it's taken me 3-5weeks to get a product.depends on the products too.

 

[sketchness]

For me it has been 10-14 days for item being in stock. I messed up the first time I ordered from them and picked an item that shipped in "7 days". So at the 10 day mark they split the order and sent it in two shipments. I just ordered two DNA 30 clones with batteries that were at my door 11 days from order date.

 

[morningdetective]

When everything I order is in stock it usually takes 10 days to ca for me

 

[dice57]

My quickest order was 9 days, longest order 3 months.

 

[wshanncap]

Seven days so far and it hasn't left China. Might not do this again.

 

[WattWick]

Usually 7-12ish days. Ordering stuff not 'in stock' is a crap shoot. Don't judge their ability to deliver based on stuff they do not actually have. Keep in mind things clog up a bit around x-mas and stop completely around Chinese New Year.

Don't feel to bad... I'm still waiting on a simple order... I made on July 17. (A ticket has been out on it for 2 months.)

 

[ignotus]

It varies widely. I just received mine after waiting about a month. The advice I got was not to order anything from them that you need or want right away. I also heard that there is some kind of "epacket" shipping option which is more reliable. I'm going to try that next time.

When you say "Hasn't left China" Do you mean it hasn't shipped, or the tracking just shows "acceptance"?

The latter is very common. The status won't change at all until the package hits the US; once it does stuff usually shows up within a couple of days.

If it hasn't shipped yet, you probably ordered something that wasn't in stock?

 

[rawr]

Usually 10-14 days with faster shipping option ( swiss, sweden, china airmail) after the package was dispatched from fasttech warehouse. Not that bad really.

Yes, sometimes mine shows still shows 'acceptance' and it appears in my mailbox the next day. Tracking is notoriously unreliable.

Best advice I can give to those ordering from FT is the following.

Order stuff that is in stock. Upgrade the shipping to USPS first class if order is less than $20 (pay the extra buck and change) and don't rely on the tracking. I average 10-14 days from shipping notification to receipt.

EDIT - Just checked. Last package ordered 11/14, shipping notice on 11/15, got it 11/21 so 6 days.
