Stop ordering things that aren't in stock and you'll stop waiting. All my fasttech order have arrived in 10 days or less.

fast tech is murdering my wallet.

For no reason at all, this morning I purchased an evod, a 5 pack of coils for the evod and the ones I have, 10x 10ml filler bottles, 2 1300 mah rechargeable ego batts, 2x chargers, 5x iclear 16, And a 5 pack of 1.8ohm coils for them. Oh and switch magents for my nemesis mod, and a viva nova.

53 bucks just for little goodies haha but what a steal.

Stop ordering things and you'll stop waiting. I love getting stuff from FastTech and expect to wait. I can't think of anything I've gotten from them that hasn't been worth the wait.

I agree with this. It's like people know that there is going to be a wait. With the prices they sell at, I don't understand how people don't have a little more patience with their orders.

Sweet my Astro is being shipped earlier than planned. Still waiting on the Launcher to be shipped, scheduled for the 14th. First time using e-packet.

 

[B1sh0p]

I agree. I don't mind the wait either. It just seems like most of the people that complain don't realize they ordered something that's out of stock.

I'd have to differ with you on that. FT does charge you, first. Even if an item is out of stock. I ordered a ChiYu a while back. The web site did not say it was out of stock. I said ships in 7 days. After a month went by I got an email from them telling me that they will be shipping ..."the other parts of my order soon and, as soon as the ChiYu is in stock, you can be assured we will ship that to you." WHAT?? You charged me for an item that is not in stock?? You don't even have it??? Yes sirree! I cancelled the ChiYu and went to the site and there it was, "Will ship in 7 days." The questions 7 days from when? Starting when?? LOL. Different experiences for all. Thing is, I know there practices and, I'm a big boy so, if I continue to use them, I should not be shocked or complain. I'm also thinking?? Is it Free Upgraded Shipping on orders overs 20.00? Do you get to choose the shipping type? Obviously, not over night for those looking for a technicality! I really wanted that ChiYu. Nice copper-ish engraved detail

That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

They're full of it. Even if it says 'ships next day', they don't even necessarily have it in stock. I had something go from 'ships next day' to a ships in a week. What was I told? Oh, that means they either have it in stock, or they can get it in stock usually within 24 hours. Uh huh.

Despite all the BS, they're still one of the cheapest sources for ecig related stuff so I continue to shop there.

if it says "ships in __ days" it's not in stock

I just finished re-coiling the rocket. Seeing that the 2.4ohm ready made coils from FT are not getting used. I used 2 of them and twisted the NR ends to get a 1.2ohm. Since the coils are so small, I managed to put them in-line. It is going through juice like mad but it sure made the Liqua tiramisu very tasty.

Does anyone know the size hexbit to fit these screws? I guess it was to much to hope that the allen wrench from my rocket would have fit (it didn't). 50 Piece M1 6 0 35 x 3mm thru 10mm Stainless Socket Head Cap Screw Bolt | eBay

1/15th allen fits them, just got them myself last week.

Why is waiting for fasttech vape mail so infuriating? >.<

Thanks. I'll try to find one. I found a couple of listings online for that screw (dif suppliers) and they showed 1.5 mm which equals a hair less than 1/16. I ordered one from FT today. Every hardware store I checked was at a loss. I will look in an electronics store next for the 1/15th.

Yes sorry 1.5mm is what I meant to put, I had the allen wrench/key already in a set I got from harbor freight.

Everyone's got different experiences. Mine said 7 business days and it shipped in two.

And you're gonna stop ordering from FT when?

Day-um dude/dudette, too bad ya haven't read any of da thread you're posting in. Otherwise ya wouldn't be itchin' & b*tchin'...

Made my order 2/28, a large order can't even remember all I ordered, but one thing said 5 days till ship, then after about 10 days it came in and was up for restocking. Policy says they will ship separate if that happens, that was 2 days ago. Still nothing shipped. Said they would split if I wanted! Why ask, it's policy! So 2 wks later nothing shipped, everything but 1 item out of I think like 12 was a ship in 2 days. I have asked 4 times now, for a ship date, they will not give me one. If my order doesn't ship by end of week I'm canceling. And these items better come in perfect or they are all going back. Even if they are all perfect, I'll probably never order from them again. Nothing but run around when asking for ship date. A shame, I'd heard only mostly good. But after this, I'm sticking to us vendors only I think.

If you are going to stress over how fast you get your order( and not take the time to learn about dealing with China) you should definitely deal US only. That way you can never order anything until China has gotten it to their local Venders and Shipped it to the US Dealer that will then, and only then, offer it for sale.
So.........15-25 days dealing with a China supplier or 2-3 months waiting for a US dealer to get it in stock and charge 2-3 times the price.

Example - Nano kits selling at $20-$30 in US, even on Ebay
Now available from Fasttech for $5. For me, worth the wait. Kayfuns work fine now and will until the Nano kits arrive.

I'm use to waiting for things from FT, and for what I am saving, I am fine with that.

One thing I have noticed lately though, a lot more products are now 'ship in X days' but with shipping being faster again, doesn't make a big difference, just something people need to pay attention too when ordering.
