The FastTech Thread For All FastTech Posts

I'm going to bring this forward, since I never got a response...

Has anyone cancelled an item from a paid shipment that is waiting on said item to come in stock, only to find the rest of the shipment has become untouchable to additional item cancellations? How about an item going from "ready to ship" to "restocking" when the item says it is in stock and ships the next day when viewed on it's own page?

When you change an order, it goes back down to the bottom of the que. You had a reservation, then you changed it, so you are back down to the bottom of the list for the product, and everyone else who ordered will now get it before you.

When you cancel an item and get refunded as a gift certificate, it all happens immediately, no waiting.
When you request a refund, the entire order goes into hold until paypal sends the refund ...

It's all in the FAQ on FT.
FT has a very linear, one process at a time computer program.

I had been hearing that alot but I placed an order on 9/10 and as of tracking now it's just arrived in Dallas where I live. It sat in Hong Kong for a couple of days then moved quickly to San Fran and then now Dallas. If I get tomorrow, then that's 7 days total time including the weekends.

I would avoid dark alleys in the near future if I were you ... envy is a dangerous thing.

Definitely watch your back. Mine is still sitting in HK since the 6th. Congrats on the horseshoe.

I keep reading posts about delays in shipping from China recently-has anyone seen or heard anything about fasttech shipping being delayed?

Awww, c'mon guys. This info was posted days ago. She may have had no way of knowing without going back through pages of posts.

I'm still patiently awaiting a large order that I place on 8/30 that's been vacationing in HK since 9/4. It has a pair of Panny batteries in it. Light a candle for me, 'kay?

Mine just left FT on Saturday; I'm not even going to bother checking the tracking number for at least another week/10 days. Like I said before, I knew what I was getting into before I put in my order, so I'm ok with the wait.

Mine too (since the sixth). Wanna make a friendly bet over which arrives first?

I'm actually not worried about it. It'll get here when it gets here.

PSA: my order placed on 8/26 just switched status to "Processed Through Sort Facility" as of today 9/16. Hope that gives the ones waiting some warm fuzzies.

Totally awesome pricing on Protank2 clone ... https://www.fasttech.com/products/1/10005980/1460301-protank-ii-style-bottom-coil-clearomizer-5-pack-2

Now of course, I have to hope that all the X10 tanks get returned because of batteries and juice so I don't have to physically send them back ... as I am getting ALL of these ... cue wicked selfish laughter


P.S.
Did a bit of maths ... for the price of one protank2 plus 3 replacement tanks (coloured) plus delivery ... I was able to buy 4 clone attys. Still have 3 more colours to go, as there are 7 clone colours vs 5 Kanger colours .... decisions, decisions, decisions ....

My first FastTech order (ever) was placed on 08/31. It just touched down in Long Island, NY. Not what I expected. It must have been routed through JFK airport in Queens. Hope it doesn't stay there too long.

Here's a screenshot:

Heh! I have several orders, no batteries or juice BUT two orders were split. My original order has been sitting in Hong Kong with 'Acceptance' ordered on August 28th.

I'm going on vacation on the 23rd. I'd really like to be able to take my new MVP with me. Doesn't look like it's going to happen.

Yeah, that would be nice to have the MVP on vacation, I've read that they last a LONG time between charges, although I haven't gotten on myself. I agree with you... no way to know when the packages will arrive. Mine have been split and are still sitting with no updates. I'm trying to ignore it and check once a week, but I'm itching to order stateside to get some more Protanks :/ Problem is, I paid $4 for the plastic Protank and it is GREAT... not wanting to pay $20 for one stateside Cheapskates have to be patient! LOL

This is true, I've not seen updates and suddenly the package had arrived without warning LOL I DO have a package at the post office from last week... no telling what it is, but I guessed it was the Bolt/Volt clone that was shipped apart from my last package. Wouldn't it be great if it was my RBAs! I'll find out once the post office opens and I head over there.

Your order along with mine are probably sitting in that bin that got shoved waaaaaaay in the back of the dark storeroom with the busted light bulb whenever the mountain of packages started piling up.

How does that happen? Seems like it would eventually get scanned somewhere along the way.

While I have nothing to add to the shipping issues, wait times etc, I have an issue with the quality. I guess the "you get what you pay for" applies at all times....

I had ordered:
10 pack EVOD's, $21.22 EVOD Electronic Cigarette Round Mouth Atomizer (10-Pack / 1.5mL) 10-pack - 2.4
8 of MT4's $2.61 Mt4 1.6ml Electronic Cigarette Tank Atomizer - black / 2.4
and 5 coil replacements $4.58 EVOD Electronic Cigarettes Atomizer Heating Core (5-Pack) 5-pack - 2.4

My wife and I are not heavy vaping by any stretch of imagination and yet 4 of the 10 EVOD and 1 of the MT4's produced a burnt taste after about a week or so. Turns out that some strands of the flavor wick had burn marks. I removed those and in one case I replaced the coil with one of the replacements. So far so god.

What I noticed though is that those 3 coil types are quite different and some of them seem to be put together somewhat careless.

A week ago I purchased a set of coils for EVOD at my local vape shop. Not sure if it was accidental but I got those which are usually used in a Kanger Protank. The top (I call it the chimney) is about twice as tall as on the EVOD assy's. They seem to be far superior to the others.

Anybody else having that kind of experience as well?

Cheers.
