I'll be the first kid on my block with a Manta.... in another 2 weeks or so

Did your Manta come in yet? ....

As a matter of fact it arrived yesterday.

Negative post was rattling around inside the atty when I opened it up. As in completely detached from the base.

woohoo

RMA has been requested.
I'll be going for a refund rather than replacement.

The cat's out of the bag!
fasttech 25-50% off clearance
Just got a great deal on some some HDMI cable and a pack of Vision Spinners on the new Fasttech clearance website.
The site has been up for a few days and is still in the testing/feedback stages, so it's a bit rough, but improving daily. There are 4000 items currently but they are updating often and plan on having 10 000 skus up for grabs before the Chinese New Year.
Limited amounts of each item, with one item available per customer, per sku.
Here is a link to the fasttech feedback page relating to the new site.
There is also some talk about a new Sunday Sale feature to be available in the very near future, but no official word as yet.

vape on..

My o-ring order I placed on 1/8 finally shipped, will report on which ones fit the Heron clone one I get them, haven't forgotten about yall.

Has anyone ordered the JM mod and used the GP Paps clone switch and top cap on it? How does it work? I love my Paps clone but am coveting a steel tube set.

So I'm considering placing my first order from FastTech, can someone tell me what shipping option is the fastest/safest? These are the options they gave me when I checked:


If it matters I'm not buying any mods or atty's, I'm just getting a bunch of small accessory type items (mod stand, pouches/cases, drip tips, etc)...

I always pick usps free shipping if it's available in their drop down box. Usually if you have anything with batteries in it that's not available and will show Singapore post. I have never had a problem in the last couple years.

 

[DEAc23]

There are four different USPS shipping options (3/4 are free), here's a bigger picture of the options they gave me:

 

[klynnn]

The first one has a black dot in the center showing how they will ship if you just hit continue. I have found that what they pick has always worked for me. Usually the first item goes China post if you don't have batteries. Figure 10/14 days if it ships tomorrow.

I have always used the epacket option and have had orders arrive as quickly as 10 days after shipment.

Select Epacket via China post, still free and has worked the best for me in LOTS of orders. JMHO

^^^^^ what he said

 

[Tortus]

They shipped something on 1/4 and it still hasn't arrived. It says it shipped via International Airmail, an option I didn't pick or even see when I placed the order. No tracking number so I have no idea where it is or when it may get here if ever. I could have sworn I picked the same shipping method as another order that arrived long ago.

I also had a problem with cancelling an item before it shipped. It gave me the option to have my card refunded or get a fasttech credit. I picked refund and they gave me the credit anyway. Then the code to use the credit didn't work, so when I checked out with another order they charged my card again instead of using the credit. It said my order total was $5 and I got charged almost $70 after checkout was complete.

I emailed them back and forth trying to make them understand. They kept telling me to try the code again in 24 hours, but I said no I want a refund since the code didn't work with my last order. It kept saying code invalid. FINALLY, after over a week of going back and forth, they agreed to refund my card.

A total nightmare. I'll never deal with them ever again. They're not even the cheapest around when it comes to some things. I got my Atlantis and spare coils cheaper from vapenw out of Washington and they arrived in 3 days.

I ordered the iTaste SVD (well, turned out to be the knock off iTazte SVD, but that's my fault for not looking close enough). I used it for a couple months and don't have any complaints. I just got the IPV Mini II 70W so the SVD is going on the shelf for a while. Anyway, I'm in California so the shipping was my biggest concern with FastTech. I ordered the SVD on 11/20/14, it shipped on 11/22, it was getting processed through the sorting facility in China on 11/23, and then the shipping wasn't updated until 12/3 when it arrived in San Francisco, then I finally got it on 12/8. I'll probably avoid ordering from there again unless I can't find a different reputable supplier.

Well after over 30 orders FT finally split an order over 1 item. Normally I only get "in stock" or "ships next day", but I wanted a couple of small things, 3 items, for $23, all 3 to ship by 2/4. One I guess didn't come in like they expected. Got an email that they were going to ship 2 items now, and the 3rd in a few days. Not in a need for anything, as I order WELL BEFORE I need anything. One good thing is I will have 2 packages to track now.

 

[G-weezy]

Nice Burnie, I got quite a few packages on the way myself.

 

[b.m.]

Fasttech may be finally trying to hold up to their name haha.I've put in a few orders before that were ships in 7 days,or however many days ecah specified,but they always took at least a week longer than expected.I had a bunch of stuff i wanted to order,so i filled up my cart,then split it into 2 orders,1 with all the in stock and ships next day stuff,and the other with the ships in xx days stuff.The orders were both put in on monday,the first one shipped tuesday morning,cool now it will be a few weeks before the other ships,but no,the 2nd order shipped wednesday morning,i'm shocked but happy haha.

I put in a order for about $40 bucks on Jan. 24, Shipped on the 27. Well it is Feb. 5th and still no Tracking, I put in a ticket three days ago and they sent a reply saying the Storms in northeastern states grounded the planes, and that I should see Tracking in a week or so. Now I am worried about that holiday thing everyone talks about. How long does that Last?

I had the same problem and also put a ticket in, they said the same thing to me and I replied back with the storms in the US have nothing to do with packages being scanned in China, they said I was right and apologized for the fake excuse, 24 hours later I had tracking info.

Official holiday for FastTech: 10 days from February 16, 2015 to February 25, 2015.
Feb 13 is the last order day guaranteed to ship in-stock items before the holiday, Feb 14-15, they'll try but can't guarantee it. They're expecting backlogs, so it may be a slow start coming back from the holiday.

I ordered yesterday an eLeaf iStick 30 W from FastTech and it was stated as 'Authentic' - https://www.fasttech.com/products/3032/10011027/2082306
and 'Authentic' Aspire Nautilus Mini - https://www.fasttech.com/p/1861800

So, is it really authentic and should i worry for something or its 100% original ?

Thanks!
