Looking for an update on ordering from FastTech

[wheelie]

About 15 orders from fasttech All 8 have arrived and another big juice order here tomorrow. Gotta love fasttech! Not sure I could afford this sport without them. They have everything one needs for the world of vaping. Will start my June orders now. I have never found an all day vape as much as I like the Apple from Dekang.

Placed my first order with them on Friday order has one item holding up the works. item wont be shippable till 5-2-14 All good I can wait for the items I ordered. Having bought tons of stuff from overseas, I know its gonna be a wait so I only buy stuff I can wait on from there. sometimes I get surprised and get stuff in 10 days. I hope fasttech will do me rite they have great prices on stuff and many items I cant find elsewhere in the US.

I have ordered lots of stuff from FastTech and it all got here in a decent amount of time, considering, and the brand names are fine. I also have ordered "knock--off" clearos and they are fine as well. Last time I ordered some clearos the ones I ordered turned out to be out of stock. They sent the rest of my order and emailed and told me that the rest of the order was backordered. Then a week or so later emailed to say that their supplier said it would be another 20 days before they got them to FastTech. They gave me the option of waiting or a refund. I am waiting since I didn't need them--just stockpiling. But they are good at keeping in touch if you are going to have an especially long wait.

I have placed 10 orders with FT since Oct 2013. Typical delivery time is 2-3 weeks. The worst delivery time of those was 25 days (batteries shipped through Malaysia).
Vamos I own 5 with 4 (Al V2, SS V3, SS V5) of those being ordered from FT. None of the 5 vamos have a manufacturer marking on them. They are either all authentic or all clones. Of the 5 all but the one not from FT work fine (V2 has a flakey fire button).
I have returned two vamos to FT, V3 with bad 510 threads (received DOA), V2 with bad 510 threads (daughters BF stripped it). Both were replaced and shipping was reimbursed by FT.
If you need it now don't go to FT.
Lately they seem to be having problems keeping up with demand (delayed shipping due to temp out of stock). The items show "ships in XX days"
Order batteries separately, they have to go malaysia post.
Hong Kong post has been the fastest Free shipping that I've used
Get some Panasonic NCR18650PF for your new Vamo

I never expected this many replies! You all have definitely made me feel welcome. I'll take everything you all said into consideration. I think I'll go again and order from FT after all. I'd love to get it as soon as possible, but I can wait if need be. I'm not a smoker, so I don't have that nagging nicotine craving, or any real reason to want a Vape other than "I think it's pretty cool!". The money I save can go towards the tanks and batteries!

My fastest delivery time was 6 days for the tingray brushed non polish to california with EMS packet shipping. Heard good things with that option for west coasters. Everyone gets it in 6-10 days.

I pick up all my juice, and batteries stateside. They can get hung up in customs, and even sent back to FT
I have several Vamo's from them that are over a year old, but I would not buy the "kit"

Pick up the Panasonic NCR18650PF, as EBates suggests, and look for a Xtar charger .. they are good.
You can find them at either:
Authentic AW Batteries at RTD Vapor
or
https://www.orbtronic.com/index.php?p=product&id=135

If your going to be using the Vamo in "short" mode (18350 batteries), be sure to get a few "spacers" for the Xtar, as it will need them to fit. The 18650 batteries fit just fine.
Just a suggestion on products, as they work great for me.
The ones that come with the kit from FT are cheap, unreliable and just plain suck.
You will end up replacing them in the long run.

The Vamo's are great, and easy to use.

You will find that folks really love, or really hate FT. Been there done that.
I had orders before christmas and just before chinese new year that had me filing help tickets and posting to their forums complaining. The reason for both issues was christmas gifts not showing up on time and orders trapped in china during the month long chinese new year shutdown. Those were both very stressful times. Both orders were delivered in time.

Update: I had a VERY pleasant ordering experience from Fast Tech. I placed the order on the 9th and they arrived on the 17th. I ordered 2 Vamo V5, one for me, one for my brother. They both are exactly as described, complete, and most importantly, working lol. I'm vaping on a ProTank 3 on liquids that my local vape shop makes. I'm seriously looking into Alice in Vapeland's Sampler offer. All their juices sound great! Thanks everyone who provided me with all the information I asked. I'm now a happy member of the vaping community
