No joke for anyone that thinks this is BS.
WHO wants open systems banned

Crazy bstrds.
It's so obvious they're protecting cigs if they're trying to ban one (the safer one), and not the other. Makes no sense at all.

They probably know PG kills coronavirus; but would never recommend it since they can't make money off it.

Crossing fingers for FastTech. I was under the impression almost everyone liked and trusted them.

We did. But things have changed and not for the better. FT has been struggling with fulfilling their orders for quite a while--since the beginning of the pandemic, actually. Their prices have gone up, they don't have enough inventory--but they are also the last Chinese vendor that still offers free (or very inexpensive) shipping, so that may be a part of their problem.

FT is also unique in that they don't warehouse everything they sell. They actually go around and pick up products from various manufacturers when they get X orders for their products. That's why you might see in your order management screen ETA 6 days then all of a sudden the next day it's ready to ship. These ETAs are extremely guesstimated and manufacturing issues really affect their stock because of this model.

They have gone downhill in many ways since Chinese New Year 2020. More than ever before, never order from FT in a hurry.

    I think FT has gotten too big for their cheap Chinese shoes.

    After making me wait and worry for 2 weeks, just notified me that they no longer carry my product. So, I will pay more here and get them fast. Looking for 1.2, 1.5 or 1.6 ohm Eleaf GS air coils only. Found some places, but looking for the cheapest price, as I would like to buy a bunch!
    Thank you ALL for your help......I would definitely NOT recommend FT anymore!!!

    Sourcemore has both 1.2 and 1.5 GS Air coils in stock: $4.70 and $4.86, respectively, if you have an account with them. If you don't, create one. Plus shipping.

    Eleaf GS-Air Pure Cotton Coil Head 1.2ohm 5pcs

    Eleaf GS Air Dual Coil Head for GS Air clearomizer

    Try WM10 or WM5 codes--they may or may not work.

    Thanks, Kat. :wub: Already ordered from ecigmafia! Paid a little more, but worth it, since they are CA. based. Checked their reputation first, and they came out really well..wondering if anyone else here has used them.

    I have never had a problem ordering from them.

    Have ordered from them about 1/2 dozen times in the last 5 months or so. Never had any problems. Order from them is Out for Delivery to me even today.

    Did you use the 15% off coupon code?

    @Katmar - You'd posted about wanting the GS Air coils for the lowest price, but then ordered from EcigMafia pretty quickly. When I asked if you'd used the coupon code...I was hoping you had, so you'd at least gotten the $6.66/box price. I'd been looking for a lower price for them, but hadn't posted yet. I remembered the following always had them, so went to check on them. I've placed more than 2 dozen orders from them in the last 2 years or so. They always have great prices, very fast shipping, and great customer service, too.

    So, if you need more of them, for less...Kanger Wholesale/AKA LightFire Distribution.com has the 1.2ohm 5-packs for $5.38/box. If you place an order for less than $75 total...the minimum S/H is $9.99. But, $75 or above...S/H is Free. So 14 boxes of them, or less with other items, too...would hit the Free S/H amount.

    Eleaf GS Air Pure Replacement Coil -5PK - You need to sign up with them to see the prices on their website.

    I just called and spoke to Harry there...and he assured me that even though the pic of the 1.2ohm coil shows the GS Air-M coil instead of the 1.2ohm....anyone ordering the 1.2ohm would definitely get the 1.2ohm ones.

    I've run across the same thing (with an incorrect image) on their website in the past. Have called about it and indeed DID receive the correct product I ordered.

    Thank you for your help and input. I placed the order after 3 hours of searching and DID get the coupon code, so I'm happy. Frustration got the best of me, but I still got a pretty good deal. I may order a few more from your link in a few days. Have to count my pennies. :)

    I used them before the state of CA went nuts with new laws and shipping bans and restrictions. Now it would cost me ~$30 for shipping plus I'd have to be home with my ID in hand to sign for the package... :facepalm:
