Good news!
I ordered a bunch of stuff from FT on the 3rd, but it did not get shipped until the 11th. It is out for delivery today. It would have been out for delivery yesterday, but there was no mail delivery yesterday due to MLK day. This order was shipped from China directly (not Hong Kong) and not Singapore. Singapore adds 10 days to delivery, and they may not have bribed the right postal official in HK.
Less than 10 days is more than acceptable. Let's see how it arrives. So far, all of my other stuff from them has arrived in good shape.
I have returned 3 items: two Kraken clones and a TEC flashlight mod due to manufacturing defects, but those have been waiting forever for restocking. Let's hope they get out before the Chinese New Year.
It's useless .....ing about their delivery. It is what it is. If you want something right away, go elsewhere. With the avalanche of new products hitting the marketplace, it can get to be expensive for the tinkerers to buy new stuff to play with.
And tinker you must if you want to be a happy vaper! There is no such thing as the perfect universal vaporizer or battery mod which will meet everyone's needs and tastes.
Of course, there are clones. Some are garbage, others are things of beauty. I have a box full of expensive originals that are junk: Darwin, Buzz Pro, etc. So much for American quality, at least in this marketplace. It took Detroit some very painful lessons before it started producing products that actually worked, and had good performance and styling.
