I bought a SS Vamo v3 and a Kanger Protank and I received my package in about a week. I don't think you can beat the price. I'll be ordering from them again.
Even though i never ordered from them i'm pretty sure its not a scam site. Actually my next purchase willbe with them. There is a lot of people on this forum that have dealt with fasttech and are quite satisfied with them. And you can't ignore their prices.
If you look in the general forum you will see a few hundred page long thread all about fasttech. They are a legit site, they ship fast for a company that is in Hong Kong and their prices are great.
They also have a remarkable guarantee (better than any US based vendors) and they ship free - but buy the upgrade shipping for 50 cents or it'll come by boat!
The only other thing to beware of is most of their stuff is cloned. For example an EVOD is not a genuine EVOD unless it says Kanger EVOD, so just be careful what you think you are buying.
They are careful to only use brand names where they are genuine. So if you buy an Innokin MVP, you know it's going to Innokin - but you buy a 'twist' battery and you know it's not going to be Joytech because they didn't say it was.
Finally, it's addictive in its own right. You'll find yourself shopping and then ordering and then starting a new cart immediately as you see other things you want. Oh, and navigating their site can be challenging...

I ordered an Igo L clone from them and I am very happy with the quality. It took 9 days total for shipping. I will be ordering again from them.
This is important. I've had experiences where the clones wouldn't accept the "standard" replacement parts, or I've had to file down burred threads on my own.
Just be aware of that risk if you buy their "unbranded" versions.

Many love the site, myself included. Some just can't stand it.
If you want something more than an ego type battery, I would highly suggest FastTech. I can't complain about the ego batteries I have gotten from there though, and for the price, and warranties they give, it's still a good bet to use them.
I would have loved to have been able to buy from FastTech if I had known of them (and if they had the stuff I wanted then) 11 months ago when I started buying items from Price Angels and a few like places.
About 2 weeks or less turn around time for orders. I've gotten items in 6 days, order to door, and my longest was 13 days (was use to places like Price Angels taking 30+ days).
While you can't make posts outside the New Member area until you meet the minimum post requirement, you can surf the forum and read more about Fasttech here FastTech
anymore they are my best friend for many items. even made a few bucks undercutting the local shops that carry the same clones as fasttech selling to local friends and vapors i know at work.
i agree it's damn addictive . fill up a cart, hit buy now, go back tomorrow and think dang it why didnt i see these things yesterday.

No, no, not at all. We're here to help and we've all got a lot to say.
Welcome to the forum smitty9306, you will like it here, you may love it.
Several other threads on this, too...
FastTech has fantastic pricing on a lot of things.
They DO sell "knockoffs" or "clones" - meaning copies of popular products - but they also sell some "real" branded items.
And fortunately, they do NOT seem to mislabel things.
So, for instance, they have the Kanger ProTank. It'll be an actual Kanger.
But they also sell the EVOD. It is NOT the Kanger EVOD (it doesn't say that it is)...
Many people think the FT EVOD is fine, and a bargain (I found it inferior - but I might have just gotten a bad one).
So as long as you are careful and don't ASSUME something is "the brand" you'll be fine.
And you need to know that some product names have become "generic" - like
EVOD, EGO and VIVI NOVA - these describe the product without specifying the brand...

Thanks again guys I was looking at the Innokin MVP, Im not totally sold on that unit but their price is the best I have seen.
Thanks

I already Like it here. I am a member of a lot of different forums, and if I would have posted a question I should have searched for first. They would have tore me apart.
Thanks

Fasttech is a great place for gear. It takes about 12 days for my orders to arrive from HK to Seattle, USA, so I set my expectations and plan accordingly. The reviews on the site are pretty candid, and usually accurate. Their low prices allow me to experiment with more mods and attys, so I'll keep ordering from them until I get bored.
I've ordered juice from them, but I probably wont any more, it's "meh" juice, and I found much better juices from the craft juicers in my area that don't cost much more.
On my first juice order from them, one of the 30ml bottles had burst, but it was packed inside a water tight inner package, and the only damage was a few sticky bottles and a loss of about 5ml of so-so juice.
The packaging is typically bubble wrap lined envelopes, I've gotten one complete shipment that appears to have burst and been re-taped (by USPS?). I was happy that everything was there.

any1 know if you can rebuild the FT knockoff evods or T4s like you can the originals?
We did!! But only in our minds, and the mutterings of our breath..
Relax and Welcome!
If you mean buying replacement coils, yes you can but i've read that some coils from fasttech aren't interchangable with the real evods.
