Used to be 15.00 till several month ago. Did you actually make a 3.00 order?

I actually made a $2.85 order, if you want to be exact about it. Regardless, it is what it is now, no free tracking for small orders, and shipping upgrades are a good deal more from what I saw.

I know exactly how u feel, like the shorter setups I don't want to carry around a baseball bat. I just upgraded from the thin e-cig which are 4 to 4-1/2" long, did them for 1-1/2 yrs. Made a thread asking advice on what to get for short setups. Wasn't ready to go to the M. Mods yet so I couldn't go real short.

Looked at both links u posted and its a very short vap, 2.6" for the Mod and 1.9" atty make it 4.5" total. If I ever go to a M.Mod I'll have to keep this mod in mind.

It is on the smaller size, but compared to what i usually use, it's huge! ;)
My regular goto is a tin mod, 3"x1.5"x.5" ish, including drip tip and atomizer. I also use a 350mah ego with an a6 RDA - that one is just under 4"

But hey... science! :D

Is this fast service from fasttech or the norm?

Ordered from fasttech Wed 8:00pm est(9am China time). Thursday order status still says "Fully Shipped".

I just checked the tracking number. Tracking now says July 25, 2014 , 6:14 pm Acceptance CHINA. So it on its way and at a China Post Office, right?

the 6:14pm must be China's time cause right now in Indiana,USA its 12:39pm(6:14pm in China is 5am in USA).

All u FT people who order, what's ur experiance in time after it makes a China Post office. 7-10 days is what I have read.

Your reflecting on hours/minutes - Time Zones? All China communications will be based on their time zone.

Relax and let things happen. It will all depend on which service your package ships with as well as Customs processing times on Both ends.
Common shipments to the US are <averaging> 10 days from ACCEPTANCE at the moment.

Mine is keeping yours company. Ordered from fasttech Wed, Thursday order Shipped, Friday Acceptance :D
From past orders I expect 7 to 10 days from this point, by first week of August (unless customs wants to try it out for a few days).

We must be the only cheapos here I just had a 6 week airmail delivered 1 driptip 1.85 lol. I do it once in awhile when they stick a tiny bit on a gift certficate. Don't matter to me if it takes 2 months I got over 5 big orders while it was traveling. Just order and forget it sooner or later you get surprise mail.

Exactly, upgrading the shipping is silly for the small orders. I just tested a purchase of under $3, the first upgrade level with tracking was $1.72. I increased the quantity to 4 to get the total cost near $10, and the first upgrade level dropped to $.60. Fasttech has the shipping cost set up to be more for smaller purchases. Buy one of the item, and it's almost 3 times the shipping cost. I don't really care how long these orders take, it just sucks not having any tracking to know if the package is even on the way.

As someone who obsessively checks the tracking info on packages, Fasttech was a bad idea. However I did get a sick Maraxus clone with a charger and a ohm meter for really cheap.

Just think of all that free obsessive checking you'll get to do.

I just ordered from Washington state and it's scheduled to be delivered as fast/slow as I've got some packages from FT.

FT uses Malaysia Post for battery items. Mine was lost and it's been 4 months trying to get a refund. I must be close to a record for longest ticket. Every time I ask what's going on FT CS says 2 months waiting for tracking investigation. When two months went by they told me that their supervisor didn't request a report until 2 months went by already, so now I have to wait until either 8/12 or 8/20 according to which CS rep is answering the ticket. I think I'm done getting battery items and juice from FT. This is my second loss and 3 broke in transit items from Malaysia Post. I was already aware of the 4-6 week shipping time. No complaint there. But I don't like the disrespect FT CS shows in their replies to tickets. So many contradictions and outright misinformation if not lies. It's like they think your stupid and a $25 loss shouldn't bother a rich Westerner.

hello everyone I've been away for awhile.. just wondering how the ego battery shipping times are at ft now.
looking to grab 2 of the 1300 spinner's for 12 each

If they ship via SGP I just had a 10 day one come that way had batterys in it but never bought ecig batterys so ya know. But SG was fast and there is another in transit that way with batterys. So fast it spooked me :)

My last order was fast. I ordered a Hana 30 clone with battery (Singapore post) on July 9th. It was in my hot (Oklahoma summer hot) little hands on the 19th. I was expecting it in August.
I am very happy with the clone. It has an adjustable 510 pin, working charging light, and no split top. I recommend it.

Man oh man FT shipping (HK Post) has been on fire lately!!! first order arrived within 8 days, second arrived in 6 days. 6 DAYS!!!!! Granted everything I ordered was labeled "ships next day" but this is the first time I have ever gotten orders this quick regardless of the "ships next day" tag

LOL, that definitely beats my domestic order from Washington.

Fast tech is great I got into 1 ohms for $15 + mod. Get their monkey drippper clone and a pack of premade 2 ohm 33g coils. The monkey is so easy to coil because it has 4 posts with thru holes. For cotton I used the pads but I'm sure a $1 box of sterile cotton will work. Anyway the experience has blown my mind so cheap yet so much better for home vaping than an RTA. Man I hope they don't discontinue those premade coils, makes a recoil a 5 minute job.
