And my wayward FT parcel lost since early May is now finally back at FT. Got asked earlier whether I want resend or refund... at this point refund. Other two FT parcels are still in Beijing, going to give those 2 weeks at least to find their way here and for China Post to get it's act together, I want my Spica Pro and my Flash-e-vapor.

Glad you are finding solutions with FT.

I've got one parcel that is still in Beijing with no change since the 29th May and another posted later which has just alerted me to a 'return proper casting' which i think means return to sender....god knows how long that's going to take...

Meanwhile they've just posted another so out of 4 packages i've got 1 RTS, 1 Static since 29th and the other 2 will get here alright as they used post NL.

Just ordered two Oni kits from Vaporange. That price just cannot be beat. At one time I thought the Ohmlette tank was awesome but I got over that pretty quick. I now find it boring but I can change out the tank. I mean they are 2800mah, that would last me all day.
I bought two a while back, PIFed the tanks. For $20 each you can’t beat them. Very pocket friendly, and very good battery management. For a small mod to fit a 24mm tank is a bonus!

I hope this isn’t going to be what we see coming out of China for the future. It seems like all of a sudden people are getting packages returned to sender. Were the return ones all China post or??

Did you buy extra batteries for it? And if you did which ones did you get?

Yep mine were all china post. I don't think that this is an ongoing thing...it's just some kind of customs/security services blitz...don't worry about it too much.

I'm from France so it was nothing to do with your current trade war :)

Charlie in my case "return to proper casting" took just over 3 weeks.

Thanks....it seems they have decided to send stuff via post NL. The first time they used it with me was because of batteries being included but now they have used it again today for something with no restriction so maybe that's how they are going to get around the China post problem :)

I think for the immediate future until they get this sorted over there it might be better not to use e-packet service since people who haven't used it seem to be getting their orders. As you say it's likely why they have rerouted your order via NL. Luckily I want one of those Tesla Stealth devices for my Heron next and since it has an internal battery it can't be sent via e-packet.

Morning everyone!!! Ordered the hotcig g100 and another aegis solo for about $60. Treat to myself for playing construction worker all weekend helping Himself screen in the back porch. The base wall is done, upper louvres are going in. My charge for the week is painting the bead board and hardieplank, ugh! I know it’ll be awesome once it’s done, but we’re at the building mess everywhere point. I’ll check in later between coats of paint :)

I hope you took before and after pictures. That’s the only way I survived all the renovations.

Sally is out of the garage. Fortunately they didn’t find anything broken or leaking, so they emptied the system and refilled it, added dye so if it does leak, they’ll know where. And my sweet ol’ gal is, once again, too cool for school.

Morning all. Big juice order landing today but that's about it. I am curiously excited for the arrival of my beater box, though. So much so that even though it's several days away, I'm already planning which RTA to build. I'm thinking about dusting off an old Kensei or Bravo. Decisions, decisions... also vape people problems.

evening all.
side piece clone? restocking. FT are splitting the order without me having to ask.
falcon triple mesh coils arrived before they had seemingly left the far east. odd. think I'll stick with the dual going forward.
another epacket has been stationary since the 4th with china post.
the druga foxy should be arriving tomorrow. 6 days after it shipped.
have mostly caught up with you folks. pleasure as always.

Right now it looks like several aisles of a home improvement store got dumped on the porch :lol:. Not sure I want to remember this stage! SIL and daughter are coming in this weekend so he can help finish it up. It’ll go much quicker with them working together. I’m just thankful it’s all outside where I can ignore the mess.

I actually did think that but then thought no can't be....and yes that is pretty cool, especially if you weren't expecting it...heey I just thought....that's not one from the problem batch that wouldn't lay, is it....that would make it even more amazing :)

No this is from another terrapin. All those eggs from Marley were bad. They've started hatching! This photo was from 2 hours ago and since two more have started breaking through. I swear this never gets old.
