Oh I gotcha. I'm going to place a big order tonight. They have subtank clones, I wish someone here could give some insight, but a couple for $25 is worth the gamble. Bunch of drip tips, coils, replacement glass. They really have an amazing amount of accessories you can't find anywhere else, especially for the price. I'm going to have 8 drip tips for the price of 2. Authentic occs half price.
On the replacement glass for those,i would suggest not getting the 5 pack though.I bought the 5 pack a while back,and when i got them,4 of them had bad chips all around the edges.They come stacked right on top of each other with nothing between them,so as they get moved around the edges are just banging against each other.fasttech was very helpful and fast about replacing them,but i would reccomend buying them individually even though it costs a bit more.They sent replacements for the 4 all individually packaged and they came perfect.
On the usps deal,i'm glad i'm not the only one.I had a package go from Chicago to Kansas city and thought maybe a worker just mistakenly put it in the wrong truck,but then my next order went from Chicago to S. Dakota,neither of these are between Illinois and Ohio haha.

Lol oh my! I actually have 4 individual replacement glasses so I'm all good there. I'm glad I'm not the only one with the funky shipping thing. I was going to wait and make sure this order came through before ordering my new one, but I may just go ahead and hit that confirm button.

I might just do that! I don't need the rba, have a couple already, so it'd be even cheaper. Think I'll get the 5 pack and a couple bases. Just worried juice might not taste as good without glass.

Yeah,should be all good on the glass then,they are just wrapped with plastic,but i have gotten the 4 replacements,4 lemo and 4 lemo drop glass all packed the same way,and never any problems.The shipping is weird the way they do it,like i said 2 times went way out of the way before getting to me,then my most recent one came straight from Chicago to Columbus.It sucks when they reroute though,both of mine that were routed funky made it from China to Chicago in 3 days,then it took 6 days to get to me haha,i guess they figured the package hit the states too fast,so they had to slow it down for me haha.Go ahead and hit that confirm button,you'll get it,just depends on when our postal service decides they want you to have it haha.

Rocky Mountain Vapor has a 25% SUMMER15 discount + special on the subtanks and that brings it down to the clone price. Free shipping + free bottle of eliquid. For some time now, I've been able to successfully match or undercut FT's pricing stateside on a lot of stuff. There are exceptions.

I guess Kanger issued some sort of statement saying FT was selling "fakes" again (yawn) because FT did not order direct from Kanger, blah, blah, blah. However it does seem like FT might be having some problems getting a distributor to sell them the subox. I had heard that Kanger, Aspire, Innokin were threatening to use authencation codes to track down the sources for the "unauthorized" hardware and cut them off. Ouch. That would mean any sale below MAP needs to be manufacturer approved without 3rd party buying. I really dislike that whole concept.

I think I heard about that, probably skimmed it here. I held off I havea whole other issue with my ft order lol, I have a thread about it on this front page. Regardless I decided to just wait on a good deal on the solid black subtank mini.

Next time you order, have them throw one of these in--
Caravela Mod, SS + Brass(18350 Mode) SKU 1540702: Ships next day $5.40
It's a very well made little mod.

You bet it is. It was the first Caravela I ever bought (and I have a whole collection of them now) to pair with my KF Lite.

The Caravela is a solid hitter, one of the best in my collection. This one has been in use for 18 months and is still as good as new.

The Gold Kayfun came today. Thanks for the idea. I just hope it doesn't blow up!

LOL very nice... I like it with the transparent bit too. No it won't blow up -guaranteed. It's a lovely vape. Only slight drawback is the bottom fill but I sill love it to bits.

I received my SS Kayfun 3.1ES yesterday and a set of SS Caravelas and they look quite stunning too. Now I should ask for a commission from Fasttech. :D
