$21.96 Mixed Caravela Style Mechanical Mod Full Kit - 18350&18500&18650 tubes at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
Replacement top cap for my Caravela that was buggered up and I had to fix (waiting for it for like 2 months...no biggie...they sent to me free no questions asked...just was "restocking" fooooreeeever
$2.62 Multicolored 40-Pin DuPont Breadboard Jumper Wires (20cm) - multicolored / comes in a 40-pin separable ribbon cable at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
They left this off on another shipment
And this (as a toy...the eGo shrinked)
$5.66 2-Post Display Stand Holder w/ Drip Tip Adapter at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
L-R M11 14500 mechanical w/ GS-H2 head, ego shrinked Kamry eCab V2 w/ protank2 mini style, SFL 1300mAh eGo
(all of these there are from ft)
You will definitely need a VERY short battery the 400-450mAh eGo shorties, otherwise you will need a tank with a removeable drip tip and use the angle adapter
Just checked and it's out of stock again. That's the reason I have the tip but not the mod. It keeps going to restocking. I can wait on something like that for myself, I've taken out of my orders many times before.
But this, this is holding up an order with some stuff I'd really like. It's for the missus. And I promised her a Hello Kitty tip a month ago.
$2.83 Silicone Kitty 510 Drip Tip at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
That order has the 3D hybrid dripper in it and it's supposed to ship on the 26th. If it gets available and the tip is still restocking, I'm putting it in another order.......again.
I'm going to one up you.
P.s. I know, liquids to US = teh sux
P.s. I know, liquids to US = teh sux<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<,, Agreed
Only way is to plan and purchase well ahead now. I had planned a big e-liquid order when this all went down. Decided I'd pass.
HKP, for regular stuff is back to normal.
China Post has never been consistent
Sing and or Swiss for US seems to be forever.............
Wasn't trying to give a hard time. Many don't realize they can control what ships how or that breaking orders into groups gets better shipping results.

This guy really doesn't like people talking about how slow Fast Tech is, he was hating on my thread too. It's slow, and we all made the choice knowing that, but that one fact still sucks. Everything else about FT is f**ing amazing though.
Its a common misconception that its somehow fasttechs fault for the speed of delivery. If you want it quickly, cough up the money for DHL

I was trying to use tracking on a package earlier this morning on USPS site and it asked me to do a survey. I said sure. About 20 mins later and only 43% of the survey complete, I realised what I was doing and who I was dealing with. smh It's completely boggles my mind how they can fk up so much. Last time I paid 2 day priority shipping on something it took 5 days, 5 days after they received it, for it to get to me. I just wish people would quit blaming a company that gets orders to the shipper no more than 2 days after they are packaged, the shipper gets it US soil no more than 3 days after they get it. And then USPS can swirl it around Chicago for a month, let it sit in San Francisco for 3 weeks, not scan at all until the day you receive a package, not even scan it that it made it to America, not do anything period as to what the norms would be for handling an order. But yet they wonder FedEx, UPS, and DHL are getting the business.

My 'ego-shrinker' is on its way and hopefully will be here soon. I plan to use it with some little egos and drippers and want to play with the angle adapter.
I really don't need it, but it looked like great fun! I've just received a package of cool little odds and ends:
1. $2.60 Square PU Leather Zipper Pouch for E-Cigarette - inner size: 75mm*77mm*26mm at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping First impressions are really positive. It's sturdy and is going to hold quite a bit of stuff. Nice finishing, too.
2. $0.94 Translucent Acrylic 510 Drip Tip at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping Good feel. Excellent quality. Goes very nicely with the PMMA parts for the Kayfun. I've swapped the red o-ring for a black one, just so that it matches the others.
3. $5.10 Aluminum Stand for 510 Atomizers (7-Pack) 7-pack - 7mm(9/32 inch) / ships with one of each color at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping Very pretty colours, Heavy and stable for all manner of tanks. Some people complain that these aren't threadeded, but that is in fact a definite plus. Saves a great deal of time not to have to screw things in and then unscrew them. This is part of my on-going effort to organize my desk. Definitely worth it.
4. $2.85 Aluminum eGo Beauty Rings (6-Pack) 6-pack - 14mm overall diameter / 2*air slots at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping Just for fun to pretty up my last remaining egos (used now mostly for dripping and testing). Pretty colours, well finished, Sit flush and have air flow channels. Happy spring! A nice change from silver or stainless steel.
5. $2.88 Chinese Zodiac Animal 510 Drip Tip - snake / stainless steel at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping Wow! This is a gorgeous, big-bored real dripping drip tip. Much, much nicer than the pictures on FT. Mine has a beautifully printed black snake, plus on the other side, the Chinese character for snake and the Chinese for "12 Zodiac Animals". It is VERY wide - nearly half an inch, 13 mm. Amazing for $2.88. It needs its own special dripper to look really good, because of its proportions and size, but you can actually drip into it. Hmmn, I'll have to go find one, just when I've been telling myself that I have way too much good stuff.
and last but not least, a second set of PMMA parts for my Kayfun family, just in case. $5.12 Spare Parts for Kayfun v3.1 Atomizer - PMMA at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
I had an order that was held up because of the Caravela top, I ended up stripping that and sticking it in that "stocking" shipment...for like a month...nothing...kept throwing the stuff that would hang my other orders up and finally one day it shipped! I think that is what I might do...order a trinket or something
oh...maybe the will NEVER be stocked again arduino uno...this way I have a "dropbox" of stuff that may or may not ship...on occasion I will delete the uno so the other stuff will flow...this way if the stuff hits...they might drop it in a "gonna get shipped" box with my name on it
Either way...ALL of my tickets are closed now..ALL of my past orders are shipped...I have 2 brand spanking new orders out of 7 pages of orders and have had NO problems that fasttech didn't take care of no questions asked
P.S. buy $20+ of stuff...select epacket!!! I get stuff in like 2 weeks vs almost a month! (well that is if the items are not on the "contraband gotta ship around the world items" Those I will throw in a "lets hope it gets here shipment

And again, you are taking things personally. Look through the FT threads(2x now) hundreds of post saying the same (incorrect) thing. Not about you or any one individual.
Actually I could care less - it is just some, not all but some, that continue to complain/order/complain/order/complain/order and Blame FT for shipping. I think it is laughable that people cannot separate a Reseller from a Shipping company. TWO DIFFERENT ENTITIES.
I also think it is a Joke for anyone to expect FREE shipping and FAST delivery.
Even most EBAY sellers ship first class or Bulk rate if free shipping is included. Yea, my last 3 EBAY purchases took between 8-11 days.(US Venders, non e-cig purchases)

I'll say it again...
I really wish we could keep the complaining about shipping times away from this thread. They are negative. You don't feel about your situation complaining about it here and we've all been through it. If it's something rare and you wish to gain clarity on the situation that's one thing, but it would be nice to have constructive posts that benefit more people than just yourself.
It's a nice dream I have for the thread and I'll actively pursue it

And on that Note..................
I have a couple of Black Nemesis tubes, a couple of Nano kits and 2 more $14 Kayfuns on the way. Cant wait for them to get here.
Plans for a Black/Brass Neme/KFL combo that should take front row center in my collection.

They just got hybrid kits in for the kayfun and nemesis combo. Check new arrivals.
As much as I want another mod, they just keep coming out with more and more cool nemesis stuff. And the amount of new kayfun style arrivals is just confusing as to what to buy next.
I did see that kit for the 3.1
but I moved all in on my Stingray.
Still want it

Still want it
When I order from China I want it to be free AND on my doorstep within 5 business days..
And if it's not I will blame ft, it's just the way it goes.

The anodized aluminum tubes? I was going to do that, but I don't think it will look good after some use. I went with the black bronze Nemesis to match with the bronze nemesis. Hopefully they'll patina together.

I tossed one of those ego shrinkers in to my order along with $7.37 450mAh Rechargeable eGo Batteries (2-Pack) 2-pack - black + silver at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping just to play around with. I measured and they should fit well beside one of my T-2's. I like little rigs for short jaunts away from the house or for when they might be placed in peril and I don't want to lose an expensive mod. It should be a fun toy. Post up any points of interest with it. Hows the Vape?
BTW: Wish I had ordered the Skew you posted. The torch is holding up my order and expected ship is 3/28. The one you posted says "in stock". No big deal though. It is all back ups and toys so when it gets here it gets here.
