For what it's worth: fasttech just refunded me for one of the four orders that I placed about a month ago. No tracking on any of them..... I guess this one was returned to them, and refunded to me. I didn't have to wait 8 weeks, and I didn't make any kind of big fuss. I was hoping it would show up in my mailbox, but at least now I know. The suspense continues with the other 3 orders.

moding the batteries for the high end, very hard to find and very expensive mod. hmmmm



cause ppl need to have a reason to justify it's ridiculous price and unavailability. also didn't you hear that the making of that switch might have involved some long lost miraculous craftsmanship and perhaps the presence of various ancient gods

The only mod needed with an AW, MNKE, etc. battery is to insert it into the tube.......hmmm

I ordered on nov 1 a few RDAs a lot of driptips, orings and empty bottles, but there was one driptip (the long straight one) that was holding my order so I told them to split it

the 14 both where dispatched overseas
and today the order with just the driptip has made trough customs here (now that's irony!! )

this isn't a post to bash on fastech/delivery service/jesus/ or the Beatles
ordering from fasttech is like playing poker if you are playing just to win you will be frustrated there is a pleasant on the uncertainty of the waiting game!
once my two orders get past customs I'm getting my chi you and AOIS... and more driptips (driptips have become a second obsession of mine lately)

yes, it should be ok for most batts. I like the extra insurance of the insulator on mine. Could be an easy 'fix' if one wanted to.

Yes. It could be a very easy fix if someone wanted an insulator. You could do it with even a properly sized spacer or oring without even needing to glue or grind anything.

When ordering non battery items, does it benefit to split up into multiple shipments? One larger shipment... Or does it matter?

I guess it is better to split everything it is easier to pass a small package trought inspections, they tend to always open big ones and if you go overboard you could end up paying import fees

Depending on the size i'll usually split an order up in increments of $15. I like to ship a couple items I don't care much about with a battery so that it's not just a battery inside. Some people will ship just a battery, I don't think it really matters.

It helps if you blow on the dice and holler "baby needs new shoes!"

For what its worth...

I ordered my package in the begining of november, right after that whole jazz w/the hong kong post nightmare. I knew I was taking a risk, so I didnt order anything I *really* desperately needed or anything pricey ... just a casual shipment of a new Iclear w/2 coils, a 5 pack of genuine kanger evod coils, a larger lanyard, and finally .. a larger sized ego case.

I just got it a few minutes ago, so it took abt 3 weeks. Not too bad. Longer than normal but faster than a lot of you. I'm not sure if the company was trying to save space or if they were trying to conceal as much as possible, but they sent everything inside the ego case and just wrapped the case in reg shipping packaging. So are things still pretty shady right now? I really have NO idea whatsoever where I can buy coils for anywhere NEAR that price.
