Here's the tracking number RW878704888CH, I don't mind :) and yes 'Nebo' is a township of sorts haha. Even funnier, this is my mailing address, I actually reside in 'Dysartsville' community LOL. (Only in the country :face palm:

Wow, I LIKE those hammers! Congrats! I was checking them out too after you kept mentioning them :). I found a deal at ebay that bundles the KFL+ with it. I'm sitting here now with my 'trigger' finger taped to the chair. I think the tape is losing though. Ever typed one handed? LOL

Thanks for the tips. Off to look at the brushed version. I am kinda partial to that finish :)

Well my local post website doesn't recognize your tracking number, weird :p

I'm having a hard time holding back on buying one of those clones in VB

I just wanted to contribute something to the thread other than a shipping question.:blush:
These are some of my FT favorites. Thank goodness I didn't have to pay "authentic" prices for them (which I wouldn't have, anyway).....

That is a nice collection there dw'struth! Nothing like a little 'vapeporn' to get me back in track haha. So getting back to topic...I ordered this

https://www.fasttech.com/p/1512600

Like i said, I'm kinda partial to the 'brushed' finish. I like chrome and polished stainless, but the brushed finish doesn't show finger prints/scratches as bad. Plus, it seems I can hold it better (I need all the help I can get, just clumsy :). It's also 'easier to refinish' if one so desires. Last , but not least, I have an even better reason to talk myself into getting that KFL +(in brushed maybe!? Thanks puchox!)

I already have an Ithaka brushed finish as well as other toppers that would look SMASHING on this too LOL

Well, that does't really surprise me somehow. I guess its official, I live in a "geographical oddity" LOL. Sorry

Man, you and me both! I'm still trying to convince myself how much I don't NEED that! haha...oh, I think the tape just tore :ohmy:

So based on this info, Do you guys think I picked the correct shipping method for the 8pk Ego 900Mah and 4 Evod twist? I know nothing about ordering from China. I have made a couple non vape orders on Ebay but the seller handled the shipping choices. For the non battery stuff I chose the USPS option.

Edit: the only Singapore option I had at checkout was option 4. Registered Airmail via Singapore Post FREE.


8pk Ego 900Mah and 4 Evod twist should fall under the Built in batteries - Officially OK category

My in-transit order has something I don't think I've seen on a shipping label. Just below the HKP postage paid box it say "1-JFK". Anyone know what that means? I have one of the envelopes I received in the past and it isn't on that one. I know Singapore Post goes through New York's JFK airport and makes a few additional stops along the way. An example would be Ranger's:

Looking at it on 17track.net is interesting. It shows the tracking of both the origin postal service and USPS. Just click on the "Expand" and you will see the break down of both.

I took the plunge and ordered a "frosted" russian clone from VB. I know, i'm weak :p

Nice choice! Now you know I can't let you out order me! LOL

Well, its done! I have a frosted one coming too :). The tape I used on my trigger finger just wasn't strong enough haha. But 22.5 was hard not too! Thanks again for the tip. I almost got the one on ebay, but this was a better deal.

Here is the last info from 17track on my swiss post order

I asked their live customer service and they told me that it comes with a clear window.

Double score! I knew you probably knew that lol. The pics 'looked' like there was a clear window in the box, but hey I punched the button anyway. That was a good deal even without it! Can't wait! sigh, but wait i shall haha. Awesome!

Hi Ramsay! Yes I seen the officially Ok bit. I also seen regular DHL says officially Ok. I didn't see it until 5 minutes after I placed my order. DHL would have probably been better but it's not free. I went ahead and just forgot about it all and not even going to try to inquire about changing.

I probably won't even track my order until the week before xmas. I wouldn't care if it took 6 weeks if not for Xmas. I hope Singapore/DHL keeps their policy and it really is confirmed. I don't want to get caught up in Hong Kong mess of 8 weeks and no clue what's up. If Singapore is going to be a quarentee delivery I guess the time frame is what it is. If I have no major problems I am sure I will be ordering many more of the throw away Egos. Like I said after Xmas I won't concern much about time if I know it's coming for sure.

If all this confirm stuff is True..... Doesn't singapore/DHL options fix all problems as long as everyone realizes FT is not a source for stand alone batteries anymore. Am I missing anything here? What E-cig products do they sell that would get rejected now if you don't buy a darn battery that you can buy cheap enough here in the states?

Lol, i told to myself last week that the hammer would be my last order of the year :p

If VB got KFL clones and US sellers have hammers on ebay it's a matter of days for FT to stock those items.
I hope you are right because I STILL haven't received my stuff from VB! Looks like my first experience with them will be my last. Of course PP didn't help. I dropped a lot of money on that first order too :'(
