Fasttech have a very bad habit of selling items that actually can’t supply or not in the stock (but not marked as such). A lot of item cancellations and long waiting until shipping the orders.
At least they don’t force you to log in just to browse their website… cough…Aliexpress…cough
Which category?
I have yet to see this on Aliexpress. I was on there today and did not have to log in to search or see anything in particular. I’ve heard this in another thread. Not sure why it happens to some and not others.
I had the occasional “ships in 2 3 5 … days” dealy, but never ever had a cancellation.
But they do drop-ship, and there’s no FT warehouse anywhere (at least as far as I know). So they gotta believe what their suppliers tell ’em as to what’s in stock.
in my entire ft purchase history I had 1 cancellation. the rest eventually shipped, even though it took forever.
The first time I tried to place an order it was cancelled, not a good way to start, I never ordered anything else from them
I had to cancel only one order, because after 20 days the 21700-48G still wasn’t shipped. The rest of my orders arrived in about the same time as orders from BG or GB.
All the items above except the first one still can be ordered as “Ships in 3 business days”.
The good thing - refund is fast and with no problems.
It seems to be browser dependent, maybe in cookie policy, and maybe also depends on time of day. I never get it on one of my computers, but on another one, I get it about every fifth time I navigate to the site.
I don’t have to log into Ali to browse it, and never have had to. Just now tried it again, and still don’t have a problem. Try a different browser
I ran into it ...but think it was an affiliate link . went into ali express a minute later via another way and didn't have the sign in BS.
I have had nothing but great luck with them.
Happend to me also the other day, when I tried to search it would just ask me to log in. Works ok today!
Fasttech was mostly ok for me had to cancel maybe 2 or 3 times.
Still the same story. FT sell things that they can’t supply. Asked about the item (must say about a month before actual ordering):
