Fwiw I just had 2 lots of three mods turn up 14 and 16 days after ordering. 18months ago one bunch of stuff including 2 mods took 22- 23 days.
I think it's great that they have streamlined the service and thing's are getting through faster.

Seems to be the case with most of us.all we can do is just keep ourselves informed by one another I guess.sorry to read about your bad luck.

I'm getting sick of having to explain to people
Thanks. I'm glad at least it was only 2 items, and not that much money spent.
Right could be way worse.mine is 2 kayfuns and all the extras, topfill, extended tanks in the frosted and ultem.couple mecs a couple rda's. I'm getting sick of explaining (only to a few people that can't seem to read) how this isn't the typical fasttech stuff this is something way different.yes we've all read the post where some new guy who's only ordered one time from fasttech makes some post about how he'll never order from fasttech again because it's been 10 days and he wants his money back......what we're talking about isn't that.

I hope my fasttech order isn't getting turned back. I did get my 8 Invokes quite recently, and they were from China and not FT.

Even coils these days I just try to find the lowest price vendor and order from the US.

I got a bunch of premade RTA coils in my latest FT order. But, for most stuff honestly right now I am going USA and sale. The price difference isn't that much, most of the time. I am ALSO wanting to support US vendors at this time, I am really super serious about it. Etc.

It's out of ft's hands once the package is accepted at a Beijing facility. My latest order was just accepted and I'll likely not hear a peep until it reaches Chicago in a week or three.

I am aware of that. My point was it keeps going backwards and forwards in Beijing between two facilities and it's being doing that for several days now like it's stuck in a permanent loop. And China to the UK is much faster than it is from China to Chicago, the whole process typically takes 7 days. Something is very wrong at present with China Post and the e-packet service. Not to mention the other parcel still out in limbo which has tracking info showing "return to proper casting" since May 24th which FT are allegedly investigating. I call BS on that one. All this is making me far less likely to want to use FT in the future because at present this situation reeks of incompetence.

I think the problem with this post is.....most people are so use to seeing the same old "fasttech hasn't delivered my package yet" post seeing those post year after year has made them dead to this subject lol.what's going on isn't the typical fasttech .....I've read the same thing from multiple people "calm down this is what it always does" this isn't growing pains, this isn't slow Chinese post, this isn't all of us tripping over nothing.a large chunk of people are not getting their stuff.

Not saying this is the root, but hypothetically speaking, the recent US ban on Huawei might just be felt through out other industries. That is not to say Huawei has ties within the Chinese vape industry, but you do not kick a company the size of Huawei in the nuts without having some sort of impact. They are a massive company which I am sure has influencing power within China. There is also the possibility of heightened imports checks due to this ban which could mean delays.

For those who don’t know, Huawei is a tech giant who is not only the worlds second largest smartphone manufacture, but also one of the world largest communications companies. Chances are your internet and or smartphone is using or going through technology either developed or manufactured by Huawei.

Huawei is a China owned company and has finally been caught stealing intellectual US property, not to mention every Huawei owner of a cell phone has no personal information which China doesn't know about. Google has shut down any Android updates for Huawei due to security reasons. We didn't kick Huawei in the nuts without reason. They are already in a deal with Russia to help them develop a 5G network.

You need to look up how China for the first time in history is starting to do the paper work to put sanctions on the usa.just read it the other day.looks as if they have a case too.Seems to be a lot of stuff going on we're the first ones to see it for some reason.

You and a thousand others. Raise a ticket and they will give you the choice of refund or resend when they receive it back.
Over a thousand squonk products available at Fasttech

FT resent mine right away without waiting for the package to get back to them. Thats good customer service
But I do have to say fasttech is trying their best to deal with this nightmare.I don't blame them at all.
