Can anyone from Canada settle my mind a bit by informing me Canadian orders will be fine, get to me and everything. I dont care if it takes 8 weeks as long as I get it. It seems stupid to complain about the shipping. Its going to be a while so if you need it soon just dont order lol. I EXPECT up to an eight week shipping time.

We've had 23 successful orders from fasttech and everything arrived in good time and with no damage whatsoever. Average shipping time to Nanaimo is 18-22 days from the fasttech shipping date. Yes the epacket speeds it up a bit, but we've never been that rushed.
The only problem we had with fasttech was a dud ego charging cable, they sent a new one in our next order with no questions asked.
We have also used the surface mail (slow boat) on numerous occasions and even though it takes 8-10 weeks, we still think it's the best value on the planet for li-ion batteries.

Does anyone know where to find drip tip parts at FT? I have looked and looked, can't find them. I want to the center post piece, so I can add my own decorations to it. Thanks!

At FT? I wish.

Most drip tip makers use SS or marine brass and cut them on a lathe themselves. I don't know of anyone who is mass producing dt cores. Most aren't even fond of making a few extra to sell (I've tried). There are a number of dt's at FT that are hybrid metal with glass and easy to break.

Let me know if you do find a stock pile of cores somewhere. I'd love to get my hands on some - and I'm sure quite a few others as well. :laugh: I just had the thought that chicks mod dt's like guys mod boxes.

Freshly milled dt core

Thanks, I appreciate the reply. That is too bad, I really wanted to do this. No lathe of course. Maybe I'll try some of those at FT and see about getting the glass off. If I find that stock pile, I'll post it here! You all have really been a lot of inspiration for me and others, so thank you!
 
I just received a Vulcan and Marquis RDA today from Fast Tech. It was my first order from them and I was a little apprehensive, but both units far exceeded my expectations. They were clean, machining was very good, and fit and finish is excellent. I ordered them around the 12th of March and they arrived on the 24th, so just under two weeks. I will probably order from them again.

what I took to doing recently was looking at the reviews/discussions for the product. Usually they are spot on and u get what u expect based on the reviews.

I'd think that someone in China must be manufacturing them by now based on all the dt's FT is carrying. So it's not out of the question, just hasn't shown up on Ali .... or dhgate yet (or wherever). You might want to join fellow conspirators over in this thread - here are the directions for driip tip use with pandora beads ... http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...y-pretty-decorated-pink-540.html#post13809467

I don't think China's economy is doing all that well in the great scheme of things. With all the lies in the MSM no telling. This is the first time I've had 4 revised dates on shipping from FT. I ordered the nemisis top/bottom cap on feb 28 and they split my order. I got everything else weeks ago. The latest ship date on that one item shows 4/1/15.

I got a shipping email on 3/12 that my order shipped and it's still sitting in "Origin Post is Preparing Shipment" for two weeks. I hope it's actually on the way and just hasn't been updated. Last time I ordered from FT it took about three weeks.

damn preparing shipment for two weeks. must be a problem with the origin shipment, the only time ive had origin shipment preparing for over a week was when it got declined and fasttech had to re-ship it.usually it goes straight through in less than a week from that poiint.

Last couple times I ordered from FT I got the same "preparing for shipment" message on tracking and my package showed up before the message was updated. I got the same message on Tuesday and it's still there. My guess is my package arrives sometime next week. I'll report back once it get here.

My latest package from them did the same.Never even got scanned at customs,didn't show any scans until it got to my local po.I got it in about a week and a half,fastest i've gotten one from them yet.
