If you were planning to buy more than one of anything, be forewarned, the quantity discount disappears when you type in the sale code.

My order included 5 stainless beauty rings which went from 83¢ to $1.07 each (with a 25¢ savings -- 5¢ each -- for the sale)
3 adapters went from $1.14 each to $1.30 (minus 6¢ each)

As a result, my total order before the sale would have been $27.71. With the savings from the XMAS sale, it would be $27.90.

I think I'll pass for now.
I guess I broke even, not much of a "sale".
I got nothing but a coupon. I tried to pay for what drip tips and toppers I wanted BEFORE the sale, got to PayPal and clicked the PAY button and bounced back to fasttech and the page said, 'You got no money or what?' LOL Guess I got bumped at the last stage of payment... still trying to get it paid for :/

I think it'd have been a better idea if they sent everyone a coupon for 70% off ONE item and let us buy at our leisure... what would it cost them? Nuthin... but I'd be back quicker than I want to be now ;/
My cart of weird odds and ends is empty now. The future is unclear, but this "sale" was turn off for sure.
Well after the long delays on pages loading I did finally get an order placed, only $20.42, lots of little stuff, I just wanted to try out ePacket USPS to see the delivery time. My current 2 orders should be here tomorrow, with SG, and it will be just over 3 weeks. With HKP I had been under 2 weeks for the last 9 orders, shortest was 10 days (I think), so I am just testing the ePacket to see what the delivery time will be. And I didn't get in to get any of the sale items due to the site crashing.

Same here, exactly. Just a $30 cart to test shipping times. Not a single vape related item.



This thread is exploding with interest/users browsing. I hope somebody has good news. :)

Didn't notice that, but as I only had one adapter that it applied to, and the difference on that one item was just a few cents. If I was ordering big it would have mattered, but I was going to save less than a buck, and would have ordered it anyway, but others might want to look if it is a big savings on a quantity discount and not enter the code.

I'm just going to wait until after the sale. I went the other day to shop, saw there was an upcoming sale so I put my cart together and waited. I had planned to buy 2 adapters (to replace ones that disappeared somewhere in my apartment) and switched it to 3 specifically because of the discount. That's probably why I noticed.

i tried getting a nemesis with 17 available but it didn't work out for me either

worse than buying concert tickets

Same for me too! The "Apply" coupon button activated but the browser just sat there and kept reloading. IT kept saying: Checking Browser Status".

What a bunch of malarky!

Wow, 4 pages of threads here on the sale and not one person was able to get a doorcrasher yet? I agree, just send a coupon out to your repeat customers and let them use it on what they want. At least it would keep the website from crashing and it wouldn't tick off anyone that way. The odds definitely were not in our favor for this sale it seems.

Let's not go myopic. This isn't the only place for folks to discuss FT. The door crasher items were purchased. It would have been fun if "we" could have congratulated a fellow ECF member for the win, but individual expectations were way too high, like lottery odds.

Keep calm and have a vape. ;)

I'm sorry that people here got crashed out of the site for the sale. I didn't even try to get in: it started at 4 am here, when i really do prefer to be asleep.:)

Like Lisa, I got a little froggy drip tip, just for fun, and a small music player, K5 Mini Rechargeable Stereo Bluetooth V3.0 Music Speaker w/ Microphone K5, Black / SKU: 1576802, because as a little old lady, the coolness factor amuses me no end...

Oh, and Spare Parts for Kayfun v3.1 Atomizer Tank + Top Cap + Chamber / SKU: 1570900

My Kayfun Lite arrived yesterday, this being the Middle East, and it is awesome too. A good little bro to the Kayfun 3.1. Seriously, I'm in the strange position, for the first time in 7 months of vaping, of being able to say to myself that I now have the ideal stuff.

I can see why Ref and Puchox swear by the Kayfun clone family. Both the 3.1 and the Lite work superbly, are easy to build, fill from the top and produce a smooth, warm, flavourful vapor like the Eternity dripping clone, but with an enormous capacity. No mess, no leaking, no gurgly noises...perfect for me. I have one on an MVP and the other on top of the VTR - it's even bigger and heavier now, but I can live with that, at least until my left elbow gives out. :)

I think I may end up selling some of my unused, now possibly extraneous stuff.

I haven't being active these days since i'm on vacation visiting the great US of A, but something told me to check the forum :p

I'm glad you are enjoying the kayfuns, i'll probably get another one when i get back home.

I was going to order the folding pipe mod, but they raised the price today. I just can't pull the trigger for $28, but I also don't see any other mods I like. :( Ah well. I'm sure I'll get it eventually, but since my monthly budget is so tight, I cant justify not getting something else to cover the extra $6.

On a happier note, my first order is making good progress!

So now it's on its way to sit in LA for a bit, then it'll hop on a plane to Oahu, and then jump on another little plane to Maui, then hitch a ride over to this side of the island... a faster process than USPS ground to the east coast.

Also, has anyone used this? M6 Rebuildable Electronic Cigarette Atomizer (0.6ml) I like that it can hold a bit of liquid. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Maggie, Maggie, Maggie...you and I, we must be sisters LOL I am waiting for the Kayfun and testing out the moody Taifun, Kraken, and Fogger. From your review I am expecting an easier time with the kayfun <3

Please review the K5 Mini Rechargeable Stereo Bluetooth V3.0 Music Speaker w/ Microphone K5, Black / SKU: 1576802 - I have been looking them over, but haven't had time to do any research, so I am very interested in your opinion =]

I do have this little guy... there is a little well that can hold liquid BUT there is also a hollow central post that leads to the firing pin. you tilt her and she floods =] That's not to say that I don't over fill her with a bit more than 10 drops of liquid and vape to my heart's content to determine whether I want this juice in a larger topper. It has the little slotted screws with no heads on them. I couldn't find the name of them, so I found something that LOOKS like them save the slot for the screw. Now, they'll rust if you are not careful, so I clean it and coat vg/pg on it. Sorry for the poor picture quality, I prefer my little digital and have yet to learn how to use the better camera we have LOL Oh, and I bejewled her... just to have her stand out as a dripper when I want to test new juice =]

I had ONE of the M6 it is effectively an A7 clone with all the problems of the A7.

Be very careful with it the positive post in the 510 connector can come loose and cause a catastrophic short. In my case a 1.7 ohm build shorted which brought it under .5 ohm. Collapsed heat spring in my REO is all that saved me from a serious battery runaway event.

Screwed it on the REO vaped it for better than 6 hours. It shorted on it's own. I have no idea what I might have done to cause the post to decide to go loose and short as I had not screwed it on or off since I had put it on earlier. I threw mine out when I couldn't make the A7 post fix work.

Yeow! I can see where that'd be a problem! Mine seems to be fine, the spring loaded center post is stable, tightens, untightens, not loose, just springy... I check the center posts on my RBA/RDAs each time I put one on a mod because I always worry about juice flooding and getting inside of my mods LOL I did have a o-ring pop out of one topper once, unscrewed the center post and put it back, but I've never had any other issues... except I did have some CE4s that I had to file a notch on. QC sucks sometimes :/

Thanks for the heads up, Myrany - I'll be more wary of that issue now =]
