Just received my first shipment. 7 days to HK (well, 3 + weekend + 2 days to ‘pick it up due to failed delivery’)
Weird thing is the tracking number they supplied never worked, and when it arrived it had a completely different tracking number on it.
Ordered H6 headlight 9 December.
Shipped 11 Dec. Left HK 14 Dec.
In my grubby hands in Aust 20 Dec. All working fine. 
Impressive is the word. Ordered 12/10, received 12/19. Faster than any other and cheaper too. 4 TF flames and 5 drivers.
Received package in a week, awesome!
I’ve done 8-9 orders to the middle of nowhere here in Death Valley. Even priority mail to here from instate takes 5-6 days. My fasttech orders have been getting here in 7-10 days. IN THE CHRISTMAS RUSH! This is the way a mail-order company should be run.
I understand that other vendors may not have the slick setup on the fast mail, but the thing that ALWAYS kills me with the other web-site dealers is how long the order just sits there before shipping. I could make a peach-pit bust of Ben Franklin in the time some of these orders take to ship. And that includes EATING the peaches.
The inordinate delay — to me — is like thumbing noses at the customer: We just don’t care about your business. And there is NEVER an explanation from other sites about the delays. EVER If they just told me why, I would be more understanding.
In a few short weeks, Fasttech has literally turned the Chinese gadget mail-order business on its ear. They have all but eliminated the biggest complaint about ordering from China, the delays. And the lack of CS. I have yet to have an issue with an order, but I have a strong feeling there won’t be any of the manafont “forget-a-refund” ’tude.
But the big question is: If these guys can do it, why can’t DD and tmart and manafont. Fastech has raised the bar. The others better step up to the new rules or fall by the wayside.
And then to open an anything-goes thread like this on BLF.
Hats off to Fasttech.
how fast is fasttech?
Item Ordered Dec 6 (early morning)
Item Shipped Dec 7 (Friday)
HK Post - Shipment Accepted Dec 10
HK Post - Processed Sorting Dec 16
SF Post - Processed Sorting Dec 19
So far 14days with 2 weekends so at least 10days in transit. Maybe its the holidays but it doesn’t seem that much faster. Hopefully, I will receive it by 12/21 Friday.
How have I not heard of these guys before?
From a quick browse on the web site they are cheaper then anywhere else: they ship faster then any other HK reseller and their rep talks proper English…. I wish I had money to spend just to try them out. :bigsmile:
Ordered a couple of bits from them on Thursday, dispatch confirmed yesterday. I paid the extra £0.70 to get registered airmail. If they can land it with me between crimbo and new year I know where my birthday money will be going…
So far for me:
Ordered 12-18
Shipped 12-20
Processed through sort facility (HK) 12-22
I was impressed that they were able to fill the order so quickly since it was a mixed bag of drivers, cells, charger, flashlight, bare emitters, and waterproof matches...

they're fairly new. I've only heard of them since about a week and a half. I've seen someone order in November though. from the web site: "© 2012 FastTech.com"
placed an order 20 Dec. we'll see how fast they are :-)
Still waiting on my very first order. Not impressed so far. Tmart in the US ships much faster.
Fast enough to get me an order to my door in 10 days DURING THE HOLIDAY RUSH !!!
I just posted in the other thread about their shipping. I ordered on the 20th, it shipped on the 21st and when threw customs on the 23rd. Now that is some fast shipping! No complaints here, will order some more in the future. Once we get another discount code of course 
After all these positive comments on FASTTECH i am ready to give my first order!
However since the sum is a bit high,* is there a COUPON CODE* i could use?
Thank you in advance and happy holidays :party:
Try coupon code: LAUNCH
Someone posted this in another thread. 10% off.
-Garry
Thank you so much Garry!!
The coupon LAUNCH works, i think for 5% discount. The other one of 10% is not valid any more.

At my local Post Office and should be delivered today (12/27).
That's pretty impressive! Why so much quicker though? Maybe the big/older dealers with the larger customer base have larger shipment bundles and those get delayed as they can't fit into over-crowded transport? The newer/smaller seller has smaller parcels that are easier to fit into the transport craft and so are delivered sooner? Are they spending more for upgraded shipping to attract new customers?
However it works, it works well, and during the Christmas shipping traffic jam, and that impresses me... Fasttech is doing something right. Now, just to check out my parcel and see if I got everything as I ordered and in good condition. I'll be posting my results here soon once I get my grubby paws on the package... If they missed my waterproof matches, I'll be sad... :((
:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
The code does appear to have changed. When I posted this up it did give 10. I had no Idea how long it would last but it was there. Maybe they will start a new one for 10 again soon.
Packaged arrived!
16 days from order to delivery. Not what I would call "fast", but no matter. Well packaged and great price, plus it's the holidays so that may have delayed. Will definitely order again!
