Let's not turn this into a whole China makes crazy juice with lead and dead baby deer in it and the USA makes juice with moon-beams and happiness and rainbows.

I am incredibly aware of the food scares that have plagued China, but my sister in law works for the USDA as an inspector and she has told me plenty of crazy stuff that makes me not buy Chorizo / smoked meat products from certain places in San Antonio. Just because it's USA made, does not make it safer by default than things manufactured in other countries.

You forgot the John Stamos' tears..

Hey which places in San Antonio? Lol I live there. I love my chorizo and egg. We usually buy the kielbasa brand whatever it's called.

Waiting for my 10000mAh pre-made box mod from there right now... And I do want to order some juices from there, to see what type of issues can come from customs since every other China suppliers have issues sending juices... Need a peach and a Blueberry with Honeysuckle under tones.. ;)

Anybody ever used this vendor?? How was your experience ??

I ordered some random bits and bobs from them about 3 weeks ago. Things like a case, few needle bottles, and a lanyard. The prices for what I ordered couldn't' be beat but the shipping was, somehow, cut into two packages. The first, and the majority of items, was delivered to the ATL area in 8 days but I'm still waiting on the second package as it shipped almost a week later.

That being said I would still consider buying from them again based on nothing more than their price and the ability to buy through paypal.

I was browsing the site at work the other day and almost fell off my chair when I saw the titles of some juices saying "with tar" lol.

yeah that was pretty funny how they did that. theyre getting tar confused with nicotine. so many ill-informed people think that tar and nicotine are the same thing. i cant tell you how many people ive ran into that think a cigarette and an e-cig are almost identical because they both have nicotine :facepalm:

but anyway- yeah, im digging the fasttech prices. i havent put an order together yet, but plan to. i went ahead and browsed every single page of the 50 or so pages on e-cigs. what fasttech needs to do is to create CATEGORIES of their e-cig products. it was such a pain in the buttocks flipping thru page after page of juice when im not looking for juice. i think theyll get lots more customers once they organize their extensive array of products.

Link, please!

I sort the price from high to low, that way I can whiz through all of the juices!

I placed an order at about 10PM EST on Thursday night, which would have been 10AM Friday morning in China, apparently didn't ship til this morning though.

Needless to say I knew coming into this shipping would take forever but I'm mentioning it because I was wondering from others who have ordered from them in the past, is it usually around 5 to 10 business days from the time you ordered, or from the 2nd email which verifies it has actually shipped? And are we talking legit business days or Saturday as well since USPS ships on Saturdays and that's what FT uses?

Can't beat their prices on some of that stuff though. I wanted to pick up that digital VV Ego for $17 and wound up grabbing some DCT mini carto tanks for only around $2.70 each, an X8 carto tank for only $7.50 and then I wanted to pick up an Ego charger and a case for when I grab a 400mAh Spinner and I find a kit with a nice soft case, a charger with wall adapter, a 900mAh fixed Ego T, a CE5 and a needle tip bottle for I think $11.50 haha!

All this plus 5% off and free shipping, truly crazy.

I hear a lot about only buy the real stuff and not knockoffs and then I read all these complaints about the Joyetech and what not busting up after 2 to 4 months through light drops or shorts and I think, well what's so great about them for double the cost if they don't last either?

Not that I'm against the original stuff by any means, I'm going to buy a Vision Spinner this week as well and have been thinking about getting the Itaste VV/VW when it comes out, but you can't beat the deals on Fasttech to be honest.

Mixed reviews.. I've had knock-off egos that outlasted the egos.. Sometimes, the knock off is better.. sometimes not.. I really only have issues with DCT tanks that come with the super sized slotted cartos... so I make sure I by a lot of real carts that I do like, and spend a lot less on the tanks!!

Part of this is on Fasttech.. Over all, even with shipping, as long as you have the batteries, you can have a VV Mod for about $20.. and a backup power supply for your phone ;)

You're going to have to explain the DCT thing you're saying haha, this is my first venture into carto tanks or even clearo's or anything with a 510 connect, I'm finally stepping up from my old trusty Elite 808, which I still do like a lot and has never really done me wrong.

I had the original Elite Clear and Easy's, which were fried trash, but that's my only personal experience with anything outside Volt carto's or the Elite 808 carto's.

By super sized slotted do you mean the punch in the cart is cavernous haha?

I also just ordered from Vaporbank, which came in today, got two Kanger Protanks and a bunch of replacement heads along with a Vision Nano Clearo, along with the free bottle of juice they give on orders $25 or up, but I'm sitting here with no Ego so no way to use it. I was going to order a 400mAh Spinner cause I just want one for on the go but then I'll still be waiting on the charger from Fasttech after the half charged battery dies in a couple hours lol. :laugh:

Oh well, 808 for another week or so I guess haha.

Thanks for the link!
Knockoffs of the knockoffs! Sometimes it IS the same thing, just relabeled, sometimes "seconds," sometimes discontinued stuff, sometimes...meh...it is all a crap shoot. Even if some of the stuff doesn't work (see Big Nova) you can usually "McGuyver" it and get it running. I have never had any problem with the batteries and ce4s, and the Liqua is guaranteed to be "authentic Liqua." We shall see. Usually it is 5-7 biz days from the day it is shipped. Not too bad, it seems Hong Kong ships faster than mainland China.
Anyway, I got no problems with Fasttech! I might even take it to the prom, too! HI ERIC!
