Just a Heads-Up Chinese New Year (February 7–13, 2016)

[Canadian_Vaper]

Official Celebration — 7 Days (February 7–13, 2016)
It's a public holiday for Chinese. Usually people have 7 consecutive days off from Lunar/Chinese New Year's Eve to the sixth day after Lunar/Chinese New Year's Day.

If you order anything from China and it doesn't get exported by the 7th your order will take longer, expect delays!!!

Some of them are gone already. Before ordering from China right now, check their lead time. Anything ordered from FT after Feb 1 may not get shipped until sometime after they return.

* This is also the Time of Year when most Vendors run out of EVERYTHING POPULAR *

As they also receive inventory from China

Average back to Normal business is END of March.

Up here in these parts, it's now being referred to as Lunar New Year.
Which, while also being more PC, is actually more appropriate since many cultures besides the Chinese use the lunar calendar.
