Just messing about looking for stuff to order next, and I could not get the slow method of shipping to show. Total order so far was just under £20. Do you have to spend a minimum to generate a slow way of shipping or is it all now fast way shipping? Confused as there seems to be no info on this.

I was upset with one vendor that charged an "x" amount for shipping and when I got my order, the postage was way less. I emailed them and told them I thought it was wrong they charged so much shipping. They told me part of it was for handling. Give me a break! I didn't think they handled it well anyways seeing I had ordered a glass drip tip and it was in a regular mailing bag (not wrapped up or in bubble plastic) and it was cracked when I got it. I will never order from them again. So to answer your question, I think alot of vendors want to charge too much for postage and then say the extra charge is for "handling". lol. (BTW, the vendor was not HealthCabin but I am referring to some vendors in general.)

Is any one going to answer the above question concerning the slow way of shipping as I can't access that shipping method from the Health Cabin website? I have just changed the order and I still can't get the slow method to show only the fast way is there.
Since you are giving your order in UK Pounds I will assume you are in the United Kingdom. HC has a notice on their website that due to the Olympics mail service to the U.K. has been considerably slowed down, so they will not ship slow way until after the Olympics are over and mail service has returned to normal. They are only offering DHL and EMS shipping during the Olympics. I guess you missed the notice on the top of their website. In China EMS has been set up as a separate state owned company and not handled by China Mail.
Here is the message under "Welcome to Health Cabin" on their homepage.
Dear British customers,
We are sorry to inform you that we have to discontinue China Airmail shipping to UK temporarily because China airmail shipping is seriously affected by the coming London Olympics. EMS and DHL shipping remain available. But EMS delivery may be delayed in the Olympic area.
We will get China airmail shipping back once China airmail shipping becomes normal.
We are very sorry for the inconvenience.
We appreciate your understanding.

Cheers Jackbox, and yes I did miss it. I am not suprised HC have suspended this method as there will be chaos over here. In fact I doubt whether anyone will be able to clear customs before the games end such is the state of play.. Airport staff are due to strike during the games too, which will add to the visitors misery. Big mistake having them here, and in my opinion they should be held in Greece where the whole thing started and kept there. Quite frankly I cannot wait till it's over and I can get on with my vaping orders... Thanks again.
I lived in Los Angeles during the Olympic Games there and many people left town expecting the worst. It turned out to be the calmest and most pleasant time ever in Los Angeles so maybe you will get lucky London is the same, but with the state of affairs in the world today I sadly doubt it.
Gotta agree with that!!!!!. I live in a Town a long way from the London chaos so I'll be ok apart from the 24/7 tv coverage. Still...... I have my recording studio, guitars to play with, the pub is over the road, enough juice to last for months, two new ego batts, ten clearimisers and a fridge full of beer
that should see me through till the slow way returns
A fridge full of beer? I thought thought you Brits liked your beers warm!

Hey man, we aint all like we are portrayed. Not all of us are real ale folk singing beardy folk
some of us love real cold beer too. I know what you mean though, we can seem really odd to some. I mean look at The Royal Family for a start, I sometimes think the Government would like us to go back to living like we did hundreds of years ago. I can't stand real ale myself, if you don't get it right, you will be very sick with many toilet visits. If you come over avoid it!!!!!!!!!!!!! and grab a Lager instead........Dear british friends, we (french people) are the best for strike during big events, don't even try ... we already won gold medal for this

Yes it was, when I went to check what shipping will be it was not available anymore and I checked here and you posted about it. Hopefully we get some feedback on Monday.
