Apologies if this has been brought up... This is a mammoth thread, and well... Search on mobile sucks hard, but...

What about tracking numbers?

My first fasttech order "shipped" on Friday, and the tracking number continues to come back "delivery status not available."

Is this common? Will it be available once it hits U.S. Soil? Is there a way to track it before then?


There's this for before it hits the states. Hongkong Post - Mail Tracking
But I think mine shipped Friday and it hasn't showed up there yet either. I have had them show up there while waiting for a cheap seat on the plane for a couple days so I'm assuming they either made it into a bin but not sent out of fasttech to the post or sent to the post but the people who scan them in were off for the weekend.

Gotcha. Thanks guys.

I don't mind waiting... But not being able to watch it messes with my head something fierce!

Assuming you are in the US, when you see it hit SanFran and start checking in and out, just forget about it, none of it makes sense.
The one I rec on Friday said it was still sorting at SF while I was taking it out of my mailbox... and I'm in Indiana. Usually when I see it hit SF, it's in my mailbox 2-3 days after that even though nothing updates on the USPS "tracking".
The only 3 things you will know for sure are 1) Hong Kong Post received it 2) It made it to SanFrancisco 3) It's in your mailbox. You may as well ignore all other information because it's completely inaccurate. USPS "tracking" is basically just a number that says someone bought some postage and stuck it on something. Why in this day of auto-scanners and bar codes that they can't do this as well as FedEx and UPS is beyond me. They already have all the hardware and gear that they use for sorting, all they would need to do is get the dang software written and linked up.

Guess who has a new bookmark! Thank you.

Why do I think that is easier said than done!

Well honestly, if there is something in the order you are really jonesing for, it might be worth it to pay a bit more to get it from a US retailer. Fasttech stuff to me at least is more like "stuff to try" ... not "stuff I need"

I've had an order sitting in the SF black hole for 8 days now. Has anyone else had this problem. My original order was placed on 7/25. This has been the longest I've ever waited on an order out of 16 orders I've placed. I've already had one order lost due to USPS negligence which they did not claim responsibility for. The order that I'm currently waiting on included all items that were lost in the previous order with a few new ones. This is getting ridiculous..

Here's a picture of the different colored screens on the bronze KSD Kmax. I may have to flip a coin, all the colors look great.

Nah, I'm good. Nothing I need. I've ordered plenty stateside. Like you said... All things I want to try, or get into. The wait is fine... I've been in on enough preorders and co-ops that taught me the art of waiting. Just the fact that it is Vape gear makes me want it now!!! Right now!!!

My latest order just arrived, and along with some non-ecig related stuff, I got:
* an Ego-C twist "1100", which is apparently only 950 mah, but that's all right with me. It is sturdy, well-finished, with easy-to-read numbers, and will be a VV back-up for my itastes and mvp. It has already finished charging, and is currently carrying an iClear 30 with...
* Liqua Apple at 3.4 volts. Wow! The Liqua Apple is absolutely delicious, no doubt about it. Its taste at 3.4 v in my iclear30 is like a fresh, ripe, red apple, deep and a tiny, tiny bit acidic. Not syrupy or artificial. Fabulous. I tried it at 3.6 and the taste changes to something sweeter and less pronounced. Almost like good applesauce. So this is going to stay at 3.4 v for ever and ever.

I also got a T4, currently drying out from its first bath, Liqua Berry Mix and Dekang Passionfruit, both of which will have to wait a bit before I try them.

So I am more than pleased with both the CTwist and the Liqua Apple!

Ok, both of my orders were placed the same day, one that shipped next day and the other in 4 days. They will both be delivered today. Can't say this is the first time this has happened.

They sat in HK longer than usual but got here 2 days quicker from SF. All in all they got here in 10 days. If you want to get technical the package with a 4 day wait got here in 6.

This will be my last odds and ends order, so from here on out, it'll be juice unless something breaks.

Looking forward to presents when I get home. :)

Thank you so much for posting that picture. I'm especially interested in the bronze, now I have to decide which color I like best (and wait for FastTech to get it).

Also for anyone concerned about the Liqua situation, it was to protect ft's distributor.

I wasn't particularly concerned about it, just curious too. It makes sense that they need to protect their supplier - I trust them on that.

The Liquas I have are all excellent, with Apple now being the star of my little show.
