Because they have such a plethora of product :)

Agreed - I actually have stuff in my cart that is not vape related. I was shopping around last weekend figuring there's a CNY sale coming so I've got some other household stuff tossed in for fun.

Why is it, Every time I place an order with FT, a day or 2 later I think of something else I "Should Have" ordered also. :facepalm:
So I'm not the only one. It's really sick, isn't it?

Usually within an hour of placing an order, I have a bunch of stuff added to my wishlist for the next time. :grr:

I know I find that to be the case if I poke around even a little. Same with amazon, LOL. Online shopping is fraught with danger. At least fasttech doesn't stalk you with ads about "things that you may like," LOL. At least, not yet, that I've noticed.

I'm still considering the Psycho shower curtain as I kind of want another magnetic USB charger now I have one. LOL, hopefully I won't be able to find it.

But if I DO? That's the husband's main bathroom LOL, I plan to put it up early in the a.m. and see what happens when he walks through that door for his "morning ablutions."

    Same... there readers are dirt cheap... worth it to buy a few each sale!
    Do they hold up with heavy use, I need them every 3 minutes so I wear them on my forehead and just bop my head down and they fall into place.

    About as well as the cheapies I buy at Dollar General for 3 to 8 times as much. YMMV.

    I hope all of yours really does ship on 2/02. The last time that happened to me...it kept getting delayed repeatedly. Everything finally shipped 2 weeks after it was supposed to originally!
    It was nothing important, I just hate that it says in stock, then goes to not in stock. :-x
     
    I HATE it when you order something in stock then it goes to shipping in X days. I ordered 3 items on Sunday (28th) ALL in stock, and now 1 item is listed as ships on 2/2/18, so its holding up the order. :-x If it is not in stock tell me. :-x


    I have asked them to split orders after what seemed like a reasonable waiting period and they have done so. If it takes too much longer it might be worth asking them to do that for you.

    So what's in everyone's carts? :p

    CNY is looming, a sale is coming....

    For once, I have more non-vape items than vape items. I've actually arrived at a point where there's nothing I'm itching to buy. :shock:
    I feel like these are gonna be awesome

    On the FT website, it says at the top of every page now:

    "Kung Hei Fat Choi! The Year of Dog is fast approaching and FastTech will be on a 10-day break starting Feb 11, 2018 - complete holiday schedule."

    So, it's Feb 7th already. I don't remember the last several years' CNY sales, but, do they wait until their 10-day break begins, to start the sale? Any order you place will then be a minimum of those 10 break days before shipping (if it's even in stock) + another 2-3 weeks after that...before you receive it.

    Don't know about ft, never ordered from them during a sales event, but gb was just a trainwreck covered in horse cadavers during and after their november sales. Not sure letting orders pile up for 10 days of lower prices will make for a good buying experience. I'd calculate more time than usual.

    Yes, nothing ships during the holiday. :( There are some sales, and discounts, but the wait is long. Also if it in NOT in stock the wait is longer than the say, as 40%+ of the workers do not return after the holiday, so it takes a few months to get back up to production. If it is not needed, and it is a good price, order away, but don't expect normal delivery times. My current (and last for a while) orders are already on the way, (one in country, and the other shipped), and I won't be placing another order until April or after, I know the procedure from years of ordering. :)

    Yeah it seems to me that's how it went last year - the sale started right before the break for CNY and my order got shipped as soon as they got back.

    So needless to say.... it's not recommended to order something you're in a hurry for! But then again, it's not recommended to buy from a Chinese seller if you're in a hurry anyway.
