That is one target that I think ALL shinyitis members can agree on
They have been dropping the ball on notifications here lately. Don't think they realize they're messing with tracking junkies here.

Life as a tracking junkie is frustrating one. I have three FT orders coming (maybe) and the tracking makes no sense at all. The first one shipped Dec. 22nd and still has the OPPS status, as does the one shipped on Dec. 29th. The one shipped on Dec. 23rd is in NYC and expected to be delivered on Thursday. I bet that Dec. 22nd shipment arrives in my mailbox with the OPPS status because missed scans happen. :( The Zeus from GB took a slow boat but is expected on Thursday. I wanted the two orders that may or may not have left China more than I wanted the other two. LOL I am not sure I love the Zeus I already have, so the one from GB will be sitting in its box for a while.

And this is why I no longer order from China.

USPS can screw up domestic orders just as easily. I still haven't gotten my DTs from Trinity. The mail carrier didn't surrender them to military agents, but he surrendered them to someone who is not me. :( An order from Kidney Puncher was delivered, just not to my house. *sigh* And yes, it was correctly addressed. My mail carrier has issues with addresses. That should be Mail Carrier 101.

Hope you complained and they should have went and knocked on their door to retrieve it. First time it happened to me, I was the one knocking on the door, the 2nd time they did.

No one knows where it was delivered. My Informed Delivery claims it was delivered to me. Whichever neighbor received it obviously didn't bother passing it along. I always take misdelivered mail to the person who should have received it in the first place.

@jfcooley - Yep, I am sure they did. LOL It was the little black discs that go under the tank to protect the mod from scratches. Maybe the person who got the package found a use for those. At least it wasn't something expensive.

Wonder if @Coastal Cowboy is dancing yet. Of course he seems to have developed a fondness for Smoant as well.
I'm tired of dancing. Did enough celebrating last night. ;)

I'm also not sure what Eleaf is trying to do with a 21700 Pico, except capture a gap between the single-18650 and the dual plus mods. It's really not much of an upgrade for me. All of the tanks and flavors I use with my Pico 75's are done well south of 60 Watts. I use my dual battery mods for higher wattage up to about 60 tops, and that's as much for battery life as anything else.

If I had to have a 60+ Watts setup, and I had to have it last most of the day, I could see the benefit. But I could only see the benefit when 20700 or 21700 cells are as cheap as Sammy 25R cells. Otherwise, I'm fine with a dual cell rig or a single cell with a spare battery on hand.

Hopefully, they are compensating you for their error.

I too am still waiting for some kind of movement for my packages from FT. From Nov 18-20 time frame. Once my issue is resolved, no more China shopping from me either.

If you are decent with a hobby knife, you can make some from an old 2 liter soda bottle.

I am just way too OCD to try and make them with an X-Acto knife. I have certainly thought about it though. I spent the better part of an afternoon once trying to find 1-inch punches on Amazon to make perfect circles but couldn't find anything that I was sure would cut through the kind of material I would want for the mod protectors. Most they have are meant for heavy paper.
