Same experiences here:
SKU.4348605 is listed as “In Stock” and has been since I ordered on March 01.

I ordered four of these. On March 28, I received this notice via the FastTech ticket system:
_“We are sorry to write here that during packaging, we discovered that the item SKU 4348605 (UltraFire 18W 1*COB 1890LM 3000K LED Emitter)—(2 pcs) we were about to ship out is actually not ready for ship because we had mistaken the stock in the system.
Please note that the status of your order is displayed as packaging in the system, but actually it is not ready due to the above mentioned item. Your order will be shipped once this item is restocked. And a shipment notification will be sent to you at the same time.“_
…but their system still shows that it is in stock. There has been a lot of discussion on their horrible stock status updates in the FastTech Deals thread:
FastTech service seems to have slipped a lot recently, and I’ve had several orders that were held up in a similar manner. I have another order placed on March 28, which included several XP-G2 emitters, listed as “Ships in 3 business days”. The entire order is now held up as the emitters are listed as “Restocking” with no ETA. My more recent orders through Gearbest have been better experiences than with FastTech.
