I’m waiting for my first package but I guess the weather here doesn’t let a fast delivery.
Then, I received a mail a week ago. They said a flashlight optics pack of 5 could have been sent in single quantity and I may receive only one item instead of 5. They warned me that I should be sure I get the right amount of items otherwise just post them for 4 items more to be sent.
Warning without incident isn’t something we are used to.
I just placed a $50+ order for tons of little parts, including a generic 105C (I'll report back on what components it has). Ordered some more drivers for custom programming, a car charger, and Arduino stuff. I'm excited!
Jasmine seems to be very responsive. I posted a question on their site, and she responded very fast…assuring me that they would look into some items I had requested (Kindle accessories, phone cases etc.) I have not placed an order, but have several a few items on my wishlist, and will pull the trigger when they get some Kindle items in.
I requested the cgr18650ch batteries but see they are mixed up (pictures) with the cgr18650cg (greens)…I want to make sure I get the hybrid IMR ones not the green ones…sent a ticket in…
I ordered on 12-20-12. They have marked it as shipped on 12-22-12. That is as good as as any overseas company has done, so they are OK for now. Once they have shipped, it is totally out of their hands, so no one can fault them if it is lost in shipping, or if it takes a month or more. I have found that most of my delays in shipping end up being US Customs. I can believe, that they just sit on their duffs and take their sweet time. If they are like the rest of the US postal system, "hurry" in not in their vocabulary. The only postal people that hurry are the mail carriers, especially the ones that have to do walking deliveries. I don't envy them.
So FastTech, thanks for getting my order shipped promptly. I will see how the quality is, when it arrives.
Ordered Dec 10… . Shipped Dec 11. SanFrancisco had it the 15th !!! SAT IN SAN FRANFRIGGIN’CISCO FOREVER….will be delivered today Dec. 22 !! YESSSSSSSSSSS>>>> !!
I just checked the tracking on my first FastTech order. Interestingly there is no mention of customs (like there usually is) and the current status says "Forwarded" and lists my local post office as its location. This is a problem as I never have orders delivered to my home, but to my office. Not sure why it's "forwarded". Could it have been forwarded from my work address? (No tracking info to say it was.). I have a feeling that even though I chose my work address as my shipping address that FastTech shipped to my home address. Now I have to intercept the mail before the wife! This order was placed Dec 6th by the way.
