FastTech coupon codes...help keep members updated

Only in China…

It used to be 10% off for real actually… :slight_smile:

Yes it did. I found the code searching the web one day. Fasttech reported back to someone, that it was some kind of special code that they had given to someone, that wasn’t suppose to be used by the public. So they kept the code but changed the % amount.

TENOFF worked for my whole order including a couple knives and non flashlight related items

TENOFF can be used instead of BLF.

5% OFF on all products! :)

TENOFF did not work but this did
CPASTE13SPRING

Thanks for this! TENOFF is now an invalid code.

arrgghh the tenoff is invalid now…i think sharing a not flashlight related coupon code extensively in public catch FT attention :frowning:

I wish they would just gives us a 5% off on all products. Some items might not register for BLF but would be used in a flashlight way anyways.

Just be thankful you’re getting 5% off anything.

The only thing that I dont like is you have to pay using Paypal - their exchange rates are worse than my credit card.

You do not need to use Paypals exchange rate

How do you avoid it?

AFAIK, if your paypal linked mastercard, the exchange rate is rendered based on mastercard rate regardless the bank issuer. but if linked to visa, it’s based on bank own rate when transaction is posted. CMIIW.

Fasttech has such low prices already but a –5% is something!!

I always use my CC conversion rate, since mine only charges the currency exchange, no conversion fee. It adds up.
From what I noticed with other CC rates, PP was comparable: Conversion plus about 2.5%.

I switched from the PP exchange rate to my CC rate, but noticed the other day my CC company now charges a 2.75% “non-sterling transaction fee” on top of their commission. Might go back to Paypal’s rates.

Where is this setting to change exchange rates?

My credit card (Halifax Clarity) doesnt have a non-sterling transaction fee so I’d like to use that, but I dont see a way of doing it when using Paypal.

When you are in the PP pay stage, there is a “use other exchange rates” option. This takes you to a screen where you can use PP’s rate, or use your CC company rate. Bit difficult to explain - I just changed my setting to buy the O’Pen, and can’t explain properly lol.

Bottom line is you know (in my case) the sterling price you pay without having to wait for the CC bill. tbh, I think it’s six of one, half dozen of the other, but I was just surprised at a very long CC bill the other day, and finding a new line/fee for each PP transaction. Wasn’t like that last month.
