So freakin stoked now. I opened a ticket on a couple packages that were shipped on Jan 25. And that's it, no tracking info on them or anything. Like they were just lost in the China abyss. I had an order of batteries hit US that were shipped a couple days ago and these two still had nothing on any tracking site. Just checked the tracking again and poof, acceptance for them on HK Post. Like they got "lost" before the New Year and "hey check this out, let's ship em" got done. So that makes 3 on their way, 3 more waiting to fill.
Hey guys!! For the FLASHLIGHT guys/gals....
I am planning to get a light. I would like it to be a Cree light, run on 18650 (I guess??), and be the brightest possible for around $20. I am not too lazy to research myself (I have tried), but I am fairly ignorant when it comes to lights. They all look the same to me, so thanks for any help!
On the vaping side......I am about to use some gift cert money to get a Taifun GT and my first true genny....the Kraken. I was trying to hold out for a Tobeco Prometheus, but I'm tired of waiting. It's been so long since I got to play with a new atty (about 3 weeks), that I broke down and set up the Rocket yesterday!

Tracking is very random for me, my last order shipped from HK and then spent 3 weeks in limbo before arriving on my doorstep with no updates.
those are for the mini protanks though?
ok well here's my next question, guess I should have asked at the same time lol sorry was sidetracked by my kid bugging me...
basically I'm trying to find a "one size fits most"
I have both the
$9.56 KWX10 Protank E-Cigarette Atomizer (2.8mL) - silver / 2.5ohm / removable drip tip / adapter ring
and the
$10.44 RG500 Bottom Coil Glassomizer (5.0mL) - copper shield / 1.8ohm / 2.2ohm
and am trying to find a good coil head for both tanks...the ones that came with the kwx10 works on the rg500 so was wondering if the rg500 would work on the kwx10...it just seems that when the rg500 gets to about half full or less it starts leaking so thought maybe the "taller" coil head would help stop this?
next question...anyone tried these yet?
$10.42 Splash Anodized Glass Carto Tank Kit (6.0mL) - 1.8ohm at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
since I have some rebate points to spend, thought I'd try a cartotank...never had one yet so figured why not....
getting adventurous lmfao....may end up starting to try to rebuild coils since FT offers premade ones lol (was always afraid of shocking myself)

Woohoo!!! This Maraxus + Trident clone combo is EXCELLENT! Totally worth the wait
I've got a blue one on order, it is holding up my order as not meant to be ready to ship till the 10th, thought they looked cool and I like carto tanks, not a lot of money if turns out to be crap.
Anyone got some recommendations for a small, handy, foldable pocket knife? Max 2 inches blade length. 1.5" would be even better, I think. Preferably not very "combat" looking. Just a nice little EDC utility knife.
Got my AIOS TD clone today. Have not tried setting it up. First impression, tho: THIS IS MADNESS! Think it will be a fun/confusing/annoying toy to play around with. Which is a good thing... I think.

How much do you want to spend? What kind of uses are you thinking it for? Just everyday opening soup cans and field dressing or picking dirt from your nails and cutting twine?
Nothing special in the use department. Just for those rare occasions when having a small knife can be handy. Like making a marshmallow BBQ stick, cutting twine, opening some packaging and such. No need for can opening. Only looking for a single, foldable blade. "Utility knife" might have been misleading. Just used that phrase as opposed to "combat" knife. Was thinking in the $15-30 range.
It's no big deal, tho. Doesn't look like they have what I'm after on Fasttech. Probably one of those things I'm better off doing some hands-on shopping in town for.
No not misleading at all. I helped my old roommate get her boyfriend a pocket knife for Christmas. I have/had quite a bit in my life. I'll ask in extremes to get an idea what people want. I would suggest a Case knife. They look good, sturdy, and there when you need them. If not a case and want something cheaper, but still good, a Gerber knife. Not sure if those are available in Norway. Not sure the brands that are good in Europe. But those two brands can be picked up online for not too much money and look good and come with small blade options. I carry Kershaw, but I use my knife as a pry bar, can opener, hell I even peeled away a car door with it. Knives are really one of those things you get what you pay for. You can't get a China clone that works just as good as the original. And China steel has been well known for being overrated and completely sub par when it doesn't have a rating. Like having pewter with a handle. Just doesn't hold up when you actually use it. Cardboard will dull most of their steel.

I placed an order 3 days ago and a few of the items show a ship date of this coming monday.. several other items show "Restocking" instead of a ship date.. Is that telling me that they were out of stock on those items?
I expected it to take some time.. and I'm not about to cancel.. but this is the way it goes huh?

Ummm, I always check the contents soon as I open it, then take pictures if there is a problem, then put it all back in the envelope until I get a reply to the ticket. But that's just me.

I filed a ticket for a tracking number that didn't work after more than 2 weeks. 2 days after the response, it started working.
FT order "shipped" 1/20. Ticket placed 2/4. Response 2/6. Tracking shows package in HK 2/8.
Did someone initially forget to mail it?
Lesson learned: if something seems wrong, place a ticket.

Exactly the same scenario as me. Exactly. Just happened almost same dates and all.

More likely it sat in HK in a CNY backlog until FT chased it and it got moved to the top.
Likely these are instances of the Pickup service warehousing Bins of packages not delivered to HKP in time for the holiday break. With a sudden increase in incoming packages HKP will also be further delayed in getting everything scanned and in the system up to date.
