But what does it taste like ?
Fresh tangy clove - dull, flat stale clove - or really more like allspice?
Is it strong or weak or barely there ?
Can you taste any depth or layers to it?

I'm glad you like it, but that doesn't tell me anything at all about what it actually tastes like.

It Tastes Fresh,Smooth not Harsh Nice Refreshing Flavor. It is the first one I reach for everyday. I lost my sense of smell in a car wreck years ago. So i can't tell about smell on exhale. To me it is the best one I have tried out of about 3 or 4 different vendors. Because I used to like Clove gum when I was a kid. I have never smoked a Clove analog. I have been using it for about 2 -3 weeks and use it every day in iclear16. Sorry I can't explain better. It is just really good to me. I have 100ml on the way!

I think how long stuff takes to get packed has more to do with suppliers and getting stock in quickly that FT. I ordered some colored twists and purple took about 5 days to get shipped, a blue one took about 8 days to ship (ordered at the same time) and a red one I ordered later was out in the mail in a day. In between the order with the first two twists and the last order with a twist I placed an order for something less trendy. A pack of 6 650's that shipped out the next morning and was 7 days from order to mailbox.

Oh and "fanboi/girl" is about the most irritating derogatory term invented in the last 15 years.

I ordered it and used it once. The flavor was overpowering and it still lingers in my device, albeit just a hint. It tasted to me exactly as the clove cig I remember from prior to quitting. I did not smoke them often.

I'll add. I vaped the clove for 5 minutes. The taste in my mouth was there for almost a week. Pretty powerful stuff. It definitely has a tang to it.

I got the 10ml for like a buck. It was worth it to try and I have not used it since. Too powerful for me. I may cut it a bit and try again, not sure, I like my taste buds.

So true!

Just wondering how many realize fasttech, if like most wholesalers, has limited inventory space. This in an over crowded country. Expansion is probably difficult if not almost impossible without major disruption of business.
Many items are probably pre-ordered in specific volumes with known delivery dates. This allows for calculating shipping dates.
I work a Supply Warehouse and know exactly how all this can transpire. We supply 500 stores in our region.
It is not as simple as someone opening a closet and taking what you want off a shelf.:facepalm:

I figured they had an army of scooter rats that zoomed around all day ignoring traffic laws and hitting different factories and warehouses picking up goods and depositing them at FastTech HQ for mass distribution.

Just wondering how many realize....

I did two years as a picker in the main distribution center of the nations largest candle maker. Between sizes,colors, scents, and all the other accoutrements that the company carries we had many thousands of items at any time. I understand exactly how selecting, packaging, and posting works in a large distribution house. Our system was modeld after Eastern manufacturing practices replete with pre-shift calisthenics and all. That is exactly why, when I see an anomaly, I take note.

When I see customer service taking three days to answer a ticket when they state they will and have in the past answerd in 24 hours I see an issue. When a simple accounting issue takes a week to work out I see and issue. When I see many popular items out of stock I see an issue . When several people are reporting it I see an issue. This is exactly why we need to discuss the bad along with the good.

May be just a burp, probably is. But until folks start reporting that things are running smoothly again, I think I'll hold off any ordering for a while.

:facepalm:

I got the I-atty and didn't thread into my zmax so I ordered a refund and they told me to ship it to Miami, anyone with this kind of experience? I'll send it and when should I get a refund or Giftcard? I live in Mexico so their orders take 4+weeks and the shipping to miami will take at least a week

Ship to Miami is standard practice for FT with US customers from every thing I've read here. Never heard of them doing it from another country however. You might want to find out how much it would cost to ship it (I believe they reimburse you for shipping) and inform them if it is a lot.

It is going to take a while no matter what happens however. That is the price we pay for the price we pay:(

How long did it take for them to respond to your ticket ?

As usual, the Dekang bottles leaked but that Mango flav. is worth it. They are not packaging each bottle individually with bubble wrap and tons of tape. This contained the leaking inside the single packs. The lids were both loose too.

There has to be a trick to the Dekang Mango, because mine has a terrible after taste... I'm barely getting any Mango. Trying to let it steep with the cover off to see if it helps.

I'm getting mine at EVCigarettes in 50/50 mix 12mg 10ml bottles. I got tired of that price and found Zainy had it in 50/50 20ml so I ordered that and a buttload of 555. Now I'm at the mercy of China Post on that one.

I tried Mt. Baker and it tasted like ... even though it was labeled Mango and I have some ECblend steeping so we'll see aboot that in a few days. At least the EC smells better. I think I just caught Baker on a bad day as nothing they sent is palatable to me but everyone else seems to love them.

Exactly! that is why people think the Vamo rocks with dual 18350's. Of course it does, they are running 7.4v-8.4v regulated down.

The LavaTube convinced me I'd rather regulate down than boost up. I hate how the vape gets weaker as a single battery discharges. :2c:
