It will take many days to show up in the system and if they sent it via Sweden Post, youre unfortunately likely looking at about a month before you see your goods, but they will show up about the time you have lost all hope.

come on don't sugar coat it.. give it to us straight

 

[danimal40]

I know this is the wrong place, but, it feeeels like the right place.

ok the order I got today came singapore post and was ordered Dec 18. No batterys and no liquids. It sat in Singapore for a solid 8 days unmoving. Took 3 days to get to LA where it sat for another 3 days before heading to me. The rest of the days? Just getting TO Singapore.

I got an unusual response from FT today;

It is a good news that your order was shipped, but because liquids and build-in batteries are not allowed to be shipped via US ePacket via China Post, we have changed the shipping method of your order to Singapore Post.
We are sorry for any inconvenience caused and your understanding is great appreciated.

Kind regards,

Good news my order was shipped? It contained 5 ego's (small ones). Does that mean they will be refusing to ship ego's? That would be a low blow. I pay $8 or less for the same thing that stateside vendors are charging $20+ for and it's the entry level battery for many people.

I'm really not sure what they are implying. It could be just poor translation.

 

[Myrany]

internal batteries like EGOs seem to be going through via Singapore post. They are telling you that they changed the shipping method from what you chose to Singapore so that it shouldn't be returned to them.

Still waiting for $19 order that I placed on Nov. 6th. No batteries, no juice. Finally made it to LA on December 31st and as of last night, has been scanned in USPS' LA "sorting facility" 4 times but has yet to be sent on it's way. I expected the long wait from FT and overseas shipping, but I am disgusted with USPS.

My FT order arrived stateside on 12/26 it says "Processed Through Sort Facility" with no movement, at least yours was scanned lol. I have a feeling good old USPS misplaced my order

Something tells me you have more toys than experience.
If your origin or any other Mechanical was Schooling YOUR Nemesis, either it is defective or you did not have something set up right.
Even my Crappiest mod, a Sigelei bottom fire Telescope, Hits like a sledgehammer with the right Tank setup. Took about 10 minutes to get the conductivity up to acceptable levels.

On a Bright note: My Dec.26th Shipment hit the West coast today. Might get here be weeks end.

Consistency is what I dislike about the nemi. Can't get it to fire the same every time. Some button top magnets might fix it but honestly the origin button is better for me. Now,the lock is worthless. I'll give that to the nemi. I tinker on the nemmi almost everyday to try and get it to where I can like it. Experience, who knows. Opinion, sure.
I mean we are talking about one metal tube being better than another metal tube... So many factors. Heh.

Just not a fan. Tons praise it. I just don't.

Canceled my Aqua, ordered the other version. Had my replacement SS deck for my Taifun changed to be included in the second order instead of the first, and got my shipment changed to ePacket China post thanks to recommendations from this thread.

Had the same thing happen to me. I had three processed through's, a depart sort facility, and then another process through. Thought I had fallen in to the SanFran black hole of old days for a little while. Eventually they spit it out and I received it yesterday.

 

[volume control]

My order said shipped, then 2 days later they sent me a ticket telling me they cant ship liquids via HK, even though that's how they have come before? Anyways they rerouted via Singapore post. Will I get my stuff, any idea how long that will take now? Im in MA =(

 

[KurrptSenate]

probably 30 days +

 

[volume control]

Good thing they gas station near me just started selling Dekang I guess... =( I also am down to one broken drip tip that is still usable, and order 10 with my juice, so this should be amusing to see if I don't drop my ecig again and break it the rest of the way. I cant believe how sturdy the ibtanked is lol

My last three packages have been around 30 days to the Happy Valley. Tons of shipping problems from China lately, you should get your stuff eventually. Out here, I don't have a vape shop for thirty miles. I plan way, way ahead !

I had the same thing happen except they switched it to Sweden Post.

Order placed 12/19 shipped SG and order placed 12/24 shipped via HK post both arrived yesterday, 1/6. My first order from FT shipped via SG, much better than most I read about here. The one shipped via HK post was on par with all my previous FT orders. The next two come via e-packet, should ship very soon if not today, all items are "ready to ship" now (finally!).

I like the brass Nemesis, it's working out perfectly. After cleaning the threads and applying conductive paste, it's smooth in both button action and threading. No complaints whatsoever. I don't need no stinkin' magnets!

Taifun also came yesterday, the deck is SS. All pieces thread together just fine, including the full SS tube replacement. There's a brass plate on the inside (between the 510 and deck), but the authentic also has a brass plate there so no complaints from me.

For those of you that tore the o-rings on a V5 RDA (Chimbus) and can't get anything to fit, $1.78 Silicone O-Ring Seals for Atomizers (50-Pack) 50-pack - 13mm*11mm*1.0mm(OD*ID*W) at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping worked for me. That was after trying 16mm which fits the authentic IGO-W, and the 15mm as well. I couldn't find any 14mm OD o-rings, but the 13mm's listed above fit snug. They also worked on a V10, so they might fit other 20mm RDA's from FT.

I would try to avoid ordering from FT nowadays, til mid February maybe? My brother's wife and mother-in-law are pure chinese and they said the Chinese New Year is at Jan 30 and I hope you know how busy it would be for the chinese people. Therefore mails will be really slow I suppose.

 

[aikanae1]

My first 2 shipments from FT sat in S.F. customs maybe 24 hours at the most. Why is it taking so long now? I bought some jewelry supplies from China last month and they all cleared in about 12 hours through S.F. customs. I was shocked at how fast they arrived (epacket).

Idk, maybe I'm paranoid that something's coming. I wouldn't mind hearing other experiences with Vapor Break, etc.
