@TamiP Anything that goes thru Orlando or from there is slow I use WZ also and he isn't real fast shipping, I am 50 miles from there it takes a week here too. I have puter memory been setting in that PO for 4 days now. Bad part is the 2 best nic sellers are both there. That is why 10-14 days from China isn't really that bad places domestic like Orlando makes em look good. I have had China stuff come onshore in Miami and it always stops in Orlando that adds another week everytime.
@Rwb1500 Cool see they surprise us at times. If I used batterys that would be what I would puff on. I use an old Vamo over here at the computer desk and I curse short battery life I am used to no batterys on the sofa. Soon will make another batteryless box mod for over here. Nice man!

Sorry for the offtopic folks!

Doing the happy dance! As of this morning my package from FT is showing 'processed through CHICAGO'. I don't know if it still has a few days there or if it is on its way to the local post office, but it's only been 7 days since I ordered the thing so I'm guessing it still has a day or so, but it's in the country, it's in the state... it's probably so close I could take a walk and visit it. LOL

Yeah, what is up with Florida. Of all the different states I order vape supplies from, florida takes the freaking longest. What's really freaky is all this talk about slow fasttech, technically, my new mod got here faster from fasttech than my order of flavors from florida. That order just showed up at my local PO too, but EXACTLY the same amount of time to reach the general local area. That's kind of sad on Florida.

YAY!!! Okay, I'm yaying here, but hoping this movement means it is now officially in the hands of the local usps, which means it should probably get to my home tomorrow... am I reading that right? Does the fact that it when from processed through sort facility ISC chicago to arrived at usps facility chicago mean it is DONE with customs and actually en route via usps to me now? Normally, reading tracking I'd know that it is in the area and will be at my local usps branch this evening or early morning and on the truck for delivery. I'm just not sure how all this customs stuff goes when getting stuff from china.

If so, boy LIGHTNING fast. 7 days from order to delivery

Hey folks, been purchasing from FT for a while now, but just came across something while trying to order the hana dna30. They only show the slow boat surface mail option via Hong Kong post. Has anyone else dealt with that?

I am by no means experienced. The order I have out is my first one. However while I was playing with my cart to decide on what I wanted, I noticed that different orders had slightly different shipping options. (edited to add: none of the choices I made included batteries or anything questionable. They were all either mods and or rbas). It could just be that particular device.

I was able to use Singapore post with my Hana clone to the US on 8/4/14. Slow boating it could take over 2 months. The shipping options differ depending on which country you live in and what the package contains. Always try to split your batteries and liquids from the rest of your items. The hana clone contains an 18650 battery in it so your shipping options are more limited. I don't know why you shouldn't be able to use Singapore post unless the rules only very recently changed for what can and can't be airmailed.

I ordered one a week ago. It went Malaysia Post and it's already left SF Customs. Going by past experience I'll have it Thursday. Ten days! That's how long Epacket takes!

    You get your kansas orders through Chicago too? Maybe it takes a few days because it has to go down to Kansas??? I live in a suburb directly bording Chicago. If it can't get here in a day, something's really wrong.hahaha... I probably just jinxed myself now though, and it will take the grand route touring the countryside before it comes to the local po.

    that's unusual wording silkakc. It almost sounds like it is saying it was delivered. Never saw a usps that said it that way though. Mine is usually just marked 'delievered' on the tracking page.


    On my order... grrrrrr, I think I jinxed myself up there. My item FLEW through Chicago customs in less than a day... now, however, it seems to have decided to take up sightseeing in Chicago. It "departed" the Chicago post office yesterday morning at 3 am, and since that is a whopping 20 minutes away, I figured it would easily show up yesterday in the mail... but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. If it doesn't show up today, I'm going to assume it is enjoying all of the museums and the beach at the lake front, and doesn't want to 'come home.'
