fasttech question..

Snake

I'm using swisspost and it's been stuck on "at border point of origin country" since Monday... I ordered a Vamo V5 so I'm a little worried customs aren't gonna let it through is this normal?

You're fine,should be with you soon

Snake

Jesus it does take a while. Awe well just gotta wait a little more

My last order was like yours, only last week. Last update was on the Monday and it didn't update till the Friday. Didn't get it till the Monday unfortunately. It was a couple of hours too late getting into the parcel centre to go out with the postman on Friday!

It seems the first bunch of updates are it leaving Asia and the second bunch are when it hits Switzerland and forwards to Ireland. It does take a silly amount of time to get from Switzerland to here, though! Still, better than all the other FT shipping options!

I have tried china post with my last one as many uk vapers on fasttech forum say its fastest , we will see no holding my breath , cant be any worse than sign post though

China post can be pretty crap. I was told Swisspost was the better option.

Celly Smunt

Swiss to Ireland always.

fathersymes

This is my current order, much slower than previous Swiss Post orders which all arrived within a week.

Not bad.



Only took 2 weeks, and hopefully it should be here Monday.

which is the best option from fasttech for delivery nowadays does anyone know - singapore post or swiss post?

jousting with chairs

Swiss is still the fastest but it can take up to 14 days now,hit and miss atm.

J Mysterio

I would use their recommended option. Two deliveries in under two weeks for me, incl. wkends.

Singpost? I have a couple of orders coming with them and one was dispatched to overseas today after been collected from FT 9 days ago,2 more still in limbo with them.

J Mysterio

Singapore Post, yeah.

if you're ordering batteries it seems that you CAN'T use swisspost, but can use Sing post.

jousting with chairs

Swiss are grand for built in batteries(ego's ect) but the only way to ship loose batteries is surface mail with Hong Kong 45 - 60 days.

I could select sing post for batteries.

jousting with chairs

Weird, I tried one there and this was the only option I got,

Registered Surface Mail via Hong Kong Post FREE (45 to 60 days in transit)

Ah, they are considered built in batteries,most carriers will ship them.

It's loose batteries that are a problem to get shipped,like these


http://www.fasttech.com/products/1420/10004185/1628900

does that qualify as a built in battery, I guess so. I raised a ticket to see if I could change to swiss post (as from the comments here seems to be quicker for Ireland) and they told me that swiss post won't ship batteries but I think that it was an option when I had the shipping method.

jousting with chairs

I just tried there and it let me select Swiss

Shipping method:
Swiss Post (+$2.11)
Change / Upgrade Shipping for Faster Speed

The shipping is $2.11 because I had less than $20 in the cart.

yeah, guess that it was just a support person fobbing me off, probably because it would be too awkward to do it. I guess that if I cancel and reorder that should work? are they reasonably quick on refunding a cancelled order?

J Mysterio

Just use Singapore Post. As I said, it's quick. Why order from FT (for savings?) and then waste money needlessly on shipping?
