That's odd. I just bought a Vamo on ebay last night and paid by PP. Still waiting for my SVD from fasttech. Had to get something. My 2 year old KGOs are starting to get a bit tired.

Ebay doesn't allow the sale of ecig equipment. However, people word the auctions in such a way to get away with it.

Somebody correct me if i'm wrong.

Here's what Geek just posted on FT:

PayPal sent an e-mail to us about 9 hours ago (at about 11pm HK time) asking if we are in the US (like they don't already know) and if we are US based, they need our IRS tax number. Since it's mid-autumn festival, no one was monitoring e-mail on a holiday midnight.

They've asked the exact same thing in October 2012 by the way. We completed their questionnaire as soon as their e-mail was read just like this time, and they did not lock us out at that time.

Our account became restricted at approximately the same time that e-mail was sent, and as soon as I completed the questionnaire just now, our account has immediately returned to normal status and checking out is fine now.

The questionnaire says that they have contacted us many times without a response. That is simply false. We login to our account numerous times throughout each day to handle and respond to customer requests such as payment disputes. We also have a dedicated account manager who is based in China, and contacts us by phone for all priority matters requiring our attention.

The good thing that has come out from this, is that it has prompted us to start working on adding alternative checkout methods, and we'll begin doing that now. I'll update here when they are ready. Please stay tuned.

I still can't believe this is how PayPal operates but, thank you again for your patience everyone. Again, all is working now -- please try completing your order again if you have seen an error in the past few hours.

I actually really like Geek, he seems like a straight shooter, and seems to know what's going on more than some of the other staff. :)

I never thought I'd be concerned about weather in that area of the Pacific...I was wrong. Hopefully everyone in that area remains safe! I can wait on my FT orders :D

Listen, we can laugh, tease, get pissy because we are impatient, but as far as I am concerned, I depend on FT prices to continue vaping. $10-$20 and I am in it to win it, $179.99 and I am out of the game. I appreciate the company, the people, the efforts they put forth to correct mistakes made by their &$-%*# co-workers and the bureaucrats messing with our shipments.

i agree if it weren't for fasttech i'd be paying 30$ for an ego "kit" with 1 battery, 1 ce4 (5$ for just the ce4 local) , and a cheap usb charger. that same 30$ can be spent on 2 batteries 1 with the same "kit" a few different types of clearomizers, various 10ml bottles of juices (8$ for a 10ml bottle here local).

or i can spend a little more and buy a did clone and a mech clone an adjustable multi charger and (until recently) a few batteries for it. estimation.jpg

add 2$ for some hagsen 12mg/ml juicy peach and bam!
