Glad i got my order in for the Aqua clone, shipped yesterday stu1873

I have 4 orders from them with 2 dispatched to overseas and 2 still in HK customs. Hopefully they will leave before the 2 month holiday!

Can't wait to see what the Aqua looks like on the Origin Mod.

Don't tempt me, i was looking at the Origin Mod when i noticed the 69 days.
Seems to get good reports for both Origin & Aqua from FT, i was looking at the Brass Origin it says it has a magnetic bottom button but the s/s one has a spring button, strange.
Post some pics when it arrives stu1873.

Does fast tech tracking number work in Royal Mail track and trace when item reaches the uk....?

Yes .. it generally states that it has been received at Heathrow in the first instance and then at your local sorting office etc.

so if its shipped today or yesterday, there is no guarantee of the order getting out of the country by the time the holiday starts? so it could still be held up by holidays over there?

Thanks......I ordered on the 26th December and they shipped on the 3rd January then all of a sudden the tracking said shipped 15th January and 17th January outbound to gb.
Confusing hopefully it will be here by the weekend

There is usually about 7 days between Fasttech "shipping" an item to Singapore Post and it being "dispatched to GB" by Singapore Post and a further 10 days before arriving at Heathrow. The time in between is taken up with travel within China, customs clearance, travel within Singapore and more customs clearance etc. You will probably get your package around 27th  ...  I have one that was dispatched to GB on 13th and it hasn't arrived at Heathrow yet so you shouldn't worry if yours is not here by the weekend.

I have been ordering from FT and other Chinese vendors for over 9 months and I have never been let down  ...  best to order and forget until the postie rings the door bell  ...  much less stressful than checking the shipping status every day and it usually turns up within 3 - 4 weeks whether you status check or not.
