^^^^^^ This, under orders there will be a picture of your item so you can drool early, a shipping number and as someone who is not good about keeping her receipts, there is a permanent receipt.

Once again, I must say, fasttech does it right (better than a lot of US vendors). I just started exploring the forums.

I want to know what GENIUS owns fasttech and how they do it with such excellence. There's just something... methodically reliable about it.

Has FT stopped providing tracking numbers? Placed an order September 2. It was shipped two days later, but there is no tracking number. Never had that happen before. It was one of the free shipping options, though I don't remember which.
What was your total price? I don't think they provide tracking for under $20-$25.

It was less than $10. Just some tips and a package of battery insulators. Most of my orders from them have been under $25, however, and I've always gotten a tracking number. But, this is the cheapest order I've made, so maybe I did reach some bottom threshold.

I've always gotten orders from FT in two weeks, give or take a couple days, so it should be coming next week. If it doesn't, I'll contact them about it. Thanks.

You picked HongKong airmail. They generally take 6 weeks to 2 months to get to me. Most of that just sitting in customs.


I use it all the time as there is no signature required and can wait for stuff that will just go in a box.

I don't recall using that choice, but you could be right. I know I picked a free shipping option. I know Hong Kong is not what I chose in the past, and I've never had to sign for a package. The last two orders I got came United State E-Packet. Hopefully, this one will just show up. This is why I keep my overseas orders cheap. :)

The choice comes up as regular airmail. At least for me.

    Anyone ever ran into this? So a few weeks ago I placed an order for a mod and few things, used coupon code MAP. After a few weeks FT tells me every will ship besides the mod. Waited couple more weeks, then I'm told mod is discontinued and I can get a refund or swap for another color. So I decided to swap to another color. Now I owe them 8$ and my item won't be shipped till I pay lol.

    Nope, never been there. Doesn't mesh out really since the MAP code only works for certain items, not the whole order.

    That never happened to me. But with FT sometimes it’s better to split things into smaller orders or make sure everything you order is in stock. The great thing about FT is if you asked for a refund, you can initiate that yourself & 24 hours later the $ is back in your PayPal account. Doesn’t get easier than FT for refunds or if you change your mind as long as it’s not in “packaging status”.

    My fastech order where I payed for 3-5 day shipping made it to NY in 11 days. Now it's stuck California. Perhaps it's quarenteened since the packing tape causes cancer in California?
    Yeah for some reason one of mine has been stuck in California to. Most of the time it goes Chicago.

    Mine usually go to Miami, but the last one went to LA.
    I thought it was stuck there too, but showed up at my local PO 4-5 days later.
    Never got scanned when it left LA.
