Holly, I honestly think they were trying to do the right thing and keep you informed. I don't think they could possibly imagine that it would upset you instead.

If they hadn't sent you the new tracking info, you would have been really worried at no sign of life from your package. As it is, at least you know that your package is on its way and you can track it as it wends its way to your house (or at least, try to track it given the non-updating of a lot of postal services...)

I do believe you will get it, and hopefully soon!!!

Edited to add: Here is the link to the sticky posted by Jasmine where she explains the whole issue: https://www.fasttech.com/forums/ord...tracking-problem-of-the-us-orders-shipped-via

What bothers me most is the fact that I have no choice on how things are shipped from the website.
I have other family that get their things from fasttech in 8 days! No matter what I do or how I order my stuff is almost always shipped registered! I would love an explanation on that one!
The stupid thing is the family members who also order from fasttech live less than 4 miles than me and we are in the same zip code... I don't mind waiting I have no choice on that... I mind the way they never offer the same shipping method twice... Even in the same day!

I believe I will get these orders before Christmas or the end of the year...

Thanks. Hmm maybe I am missing something.. Heck I will just buy a new one. Seems the easiest solution.

15mm Standard Tube

Caps must be purchased separately. The Glass used for these tubes is about half the thickness of our other cartomizer tank tubes. At 1.2mm that means it can be broken much easier, while I would not call it fragile I would say it is not for rough handling.

Okay, yes. If you were looking at the 15mm tanks. Again, those are their smallest size tank. They are very small and that size glass would not be of much use for something in a larger tank. The 22mm tanks are close to 3mm thick on the glass.

OMG - Just did my second (Single Coil) build on one of my Ithaka Clones. First build ran 2 weeks extremely well. Kind of damaged a wick washing things out so I went ahead and installed new coil and wicks.
2.6ohm on Nemesis with Kick at 8-8.5 watts - Ohhhhhhhhhh Yeaaaaaaaaaaaa!!:p

Latest Ithaka addition left HK for the US this a.m. so hopefully it will be here and get set up Sunday.

Next will be trying an all cotton Build on a Rocket Tank. Should get interesting.

Bwahahahahahaha! Buddy just told me where to buy parts for my RSST and AGA T2 =] I got them in the classies and/or lost the pin to the RSST :p I dunno, maybe I had it and lost it in the carpet... regardless, I asked FastTech about selling RBA parts and that said they only have parts for returned items :/

I cleaned up at Hoosiervapes =] little coupon saved me shipping and I got a F16 to round it out =]

Sigelei 8W! Thanks!!!! <3 How does it hit? I've got enough pretty mech tubes that can't fire up a RBA... I just found out recently that my old Natural fires up the AGA T2 like crazy =] Great surprise :p

Love that 'sinister' laugh :). I think it hits well. Hasn't let me down anyway. It has a telescopic top pin (two piece brass), and I like the bottom button better than most of the other mods I have (Brass contact). I use it mostly sitting at the conputer, driving/riding, or watching tv (when i get the chance).

Yes, I seen where you had trouble with a mech mod. I actually dragged out my AGT-T2 to start fiddling with. Maybe I'll get some time to try setting it up again. Congratts!

edit: I'm like scope on the top here. It does serve me well, but it might be better if one had the 'shorter' top cap for 'taller' toppers

My 2 cents, I would wait for a review of the EHPro version .... one because it has the nicer, thinner top, and two, the switch on the 8W kinda sucks imho ... it has WAY too much clearance, which causes a lot of wobble. It can be made good by shimming, etc... but why should you have to, if you know what I mean.

Yeah, cotton wick with a coil wrapped on something small (I go a hair bigger than 1/16", just to try and make sure that air can't get past my coil, I want all of it going through to get more flavor. Rocket and Kayfun style in general really seem to work well with this setup.

I used to love my Ithaka, won't ever touch it again after using the russian91 :p not because of flavor or anything like that, but rebuilding the ithaka is a pita in comparison :p

I read on calivapers that the ehpro caravela is pretty awful, some people complained the switch was not up to snuff.

Wow, nobody seems to be able to make a good Caravella switch ... well besides Caravella. ;-)

Funny, it's ears must have been ringing, I just saw this posted:

Yes, I'm going to wait =] I like the looks of it, but I hate the bottom buttons... and I have several already that don't hit well at all. My favorite of all time is the Pisces, it's lightweight, gorgeous, and tiny. But it is a worthless vape unless you are running 18350 and a kick :/

I'm trying to be a bit choosier with the mods since I already have too many that don't do it for me =] I should throw them up in the classies, but I'll wait until I find something that DOES work since I rotate a lot of them =]

Sides, RANGER may throw his up in the classies for a song :p

Haha, well Lisa, if I do decide to part with it I will let you know first :). Just to be clear about the bottom button on this, I like it because mine hits EVERY time. No matter how I press it. It does 'wobble' a little if I set it down without locking it, but it still doesn't fire if I do without locking it. I did change out the spring in the button though. It was a little too stiff for my liking before.

What song would you sing for it? LOL

My favorite bottom button mod is the TVS =] TVS Mechanical Mod - gold / brass A HUGE, heavy, GOLD mech with a recessed button =] It's too heavy for me to hold for long, too gaudy to carry around, but the bottom button has no wobble and is as smooth as butter =] Even if it weren't BRIGHT GOLD I think it'd be too heavy for me =]

I'll play a song for you, how about that? Jason Charles Miller - "You Get What You Pay For"
