The FastTech Thread for All FastTech Posts (Part 2)

[b.m.]

We're any of the packages complete kits as mentioned by @puffon? That's what I just ordered.

No,all of mine were seperate parts.They were mods,rda's,drip tips,etc. but none were together as a kit.Unless customs physically checks your package,i doubt they will even catch that is a kit though.

Just general wonderment if something comes via a courier service is there customs, like DHL e.g.? Just wondering because now I got a smoant warranty thing coming (it's not a kit but a mod).

Also I am going to say if customs is ANYTHING like my local mailman we can expect the tariffs next year sometime. just saying.

Yes,it will go through customs no matter who is delivering it.Not sure about Dhl,but Fedex sends a bill after delivery for customs fees,i had a package come through Dhl a few years ago and never got a bill from them then,but not sure about now.

Your package should be ok as long as don’t open it as someone said above as China never marks the items as vape gear, it’s usually metal parts, etc.

Is it worth getting mech mods from FT?

$18.09 (Free Shipping) Pegasus Style 18650 Mechanical Mod (Pegasus Mod, Copper + Carbon Fiber, Black) at m.FastTech.com

Something like this maybe? Just would like to be as safe as possible [:

It's been a while since I ordered from fasttech and need some QUICK advice (quick sale on now).

Is there consensus as to which free shipping option is best?
Used ePacket last time I ordered, but now there are 2 epacket options:

USA Express ePacket
Routed by FastTech
8-12 days in transit typical

United States Express
ePacket
5-10 Working days typical

Which is better?

I always use the 2d one, never tried the 1st one.

My experience is that it doesn't matter which option you choose.

That has been my experience. But it has been something like a year since ordering from them.
Noel from the FT new arrival and discount thread says that these days they are making them as ecigarette items.?

Just got an order from FT yesterday, mine was labeled as some kind of lock.

Yeah, I was just going back thru that thread to find his statement. Was all the way back to mid 2017 and didn't see it.
Probably a CYA type statement not wanting to publicly admit to the 'erroneous' labeling?

Yes I have never had a package from FT or any other China vendor label the package as containing e-cigarette products.

Why I havent the fondest idea of what youre speaking of! Theirs no mislabeling or circumvenring happening

Same here.My last 2 orders,i tried both of those options and they were pretty much the same,within a few days of each other,which was on USPS nothing to do with the shipping option.

My last FT package a few weeks ago said "Electronic parts",it was a mech mod and an rda haha.I got an rda yesterday from another Chinese vendor and the label said "Plastic cube sample" haha.

 

[Sugar_and_Spice]

My packages have said 'gadgets' 'electronic parts' . I guess that the components in the package could be described that way....LOL

 

[Lufty]

Oh also, Ive been advised in the past to -ALWAYS- ship United States ePacket when it comes to shipping and Ive always got my stuff in 2 weeks or less.

Has FT stopped providing tracking numbers? Placed an order September 2. It was shipped two days later, but there is no tracking number. Never had that happen before. It was one of the free shipping options, though I don't remember which.
