It's standard procedure to bill as soon as you order. FT doesn't have all items in stock, it's always clearly stated somewhere in the item-description. Your tweezers apparently were not in stock, so ETA was 27th, for them to receive the item from their supplier. Good chance it has arrived by now. Next stage is "waiting to be packaged", then "packaging", then "shipped". Since it's a small order, chances are it will take another 3 to 4 weeks before it arrives. This also differs per country/customs. Shipping method you chose also influences delivery time.
Thanks for the info. I knew they were slow, but...wow. I don't think fasttech is going to be for me. lol I like to order something and not have to wait too long.

They're usually very fast actually. Most items i order do ship next day. From there on it's out of their hands. I mostly choose Singapore Post for shipping and it takes an average 10 to 12 days for my orders to arrive, from Hong Kong to the Netherlands. I can wait that long to get a lot of my vaping stuff twice as cheap.

Sometimes however the urge to get some new gear is stronger than saving $10 or $20 so i order from local shops to get a next day delivery. I get your point.

For stuff like the tweezers and little small accessories, it will be okay. There's no way I could wait that long for a tank or mod, though. lol

Fasttech is awesome.
In-stock items usually take 9-14 days to me in Southern California.
Would be even less if it didn't sit at the US docks.
I've had US sites take a week to ship in-stock items, and then use first class mail.
To save 75%, I'll wait an extra two days.

I'm guessing the { Automatic } Daily Split shipping has Failed.

When all other items in your orders are ready, FastTech automatically moves restocking items into a separate shipment for you (i.e. split shipment), so that you can quickly receive your order. The automatic split shipment process takes place every night Hong Kong Time, on business days.

Wonder if anyone there has even noticed :glare:

Oh well, keep waiting and start planning the next order. :lol:

ETA: Was browsing and Chat popped up. Chatted with Serena<<<<uhuh, yea> and she split the order so everything except my FAVORITE:grr: Drip Tips will ship.
Still good service :D

Placed order on February 6th with cny code. Still waiting for one $1.58 drip tip to restock before they ship my order. It did say 3/2 restock date, now says 3/9. :( :(

Welcome to the ETA merry go round, its not always a fun ride. Best thing to do with FT is order and forget. Shows up and its a nice little surprise lol. I check my orders once a week usually, unless I get an email that there was an issue.

I've ordered from them quite a few times. Never had anything go past 3 weeks. This will be my first multi month shipment.

HD
Never fun, especially with Vape mail, CNY + 20% off sale really did a number on them. I've got 2 items in restocking with an ETA of 3/10 right now, both have changed 3 times now. Everything is just starting to catch up over there.

Precise, exacting measurements from FT, LOL. (SARC!)

The point of this is that their measurements are not to be taken seriously. But what good does accuracy matter anyways.

Rant over.

I placed several orders back to back a couple of weeks ago. I had a number of items that were 7-dayers. So I threw them all on one order. It's been 13 days now. Most of the items were ready in 7, but I have one item that just won't stock! It changed to 3 days 3 days ago. I hoped it would ship today, but today there's an additional 5 days added. Grrrrr. I made a ticket today to ask why it hasn't been split and shipped. Hopefully, they will ship out what is ready. There are 10 items on the order, so getting held up on one is aggravating. I don't want to cancel it though, so hopefully they will split it.

They'll split it i assume, i've had several split orders for that reason. I'm still waiting for a driptip that just won't stock, it's been weeks now, the other 8 items from that order have been in stock for over two weeks now. Might ask to split that order also if it takes another week or more. Luckily most KUNGHEI discount orders are being/have been delivered now, so i have enough new toys to amuse myself.
