Well unless you grabbed one earlier you've missed their group buy Vamov5, iy's finished now, got to keep watching for what is next

Already got a Vamo Q , Did think of ordering another as a spare but I find it a bit large . think I need some mech mods in my life. I ordered a nemesis (I think ?) the other day but seen a nice short 18350 one for just under £8.00 so I`m gong to get one of those too

One gp mod ordered and 4 copy aero mega tanks . about £8.00 an item

DONT do that, keep your orders sensible but do more of them, its all free postage and smaller packages attract less interest from HMRC

I think FTs Quality Control is better, I've not had problems with any of their items, but a mod I got from Focalecig had the leftovers from the machining of the threads still left inside it, which I didn't notice until it damaged the battery I inserted into it causing it to short and get very hot, luckily I managed to get it out before it went thermal and found the cause, also the Protank 3 I ordered turned out to be a fake (didn't say it was a copy), it came in an Authentic looking box with the authentication label and cards inside.

I've had a few orders of up to $100 get through without any interest by HMRC from FT because they don't put the correct amount on the Declaration form, but hardware orders from the States for less than $100 always gets a hit because the Yanks tend to put the correct amount down.

I've been buying from Fasttech for over a year now, and had no probs.
If an item is in stock, i've had orders shipped out the same day or the day after. If they're not in stock, as in, "ships in 5 days" this might be sooner, might be later, all depends when Fasttech get them from the supplier, which isn't their fault.

I have found that Fasttech products seem to be of better quality and faster delivery. But Facalecig have been ok as well.

[Q]

I've had no quality issues with either, except a broken 'o' ring on an attie from FT the other day, raised a query and now awaiting resolution

[Jerri]

I've always found fasttech quicker. Usually around a months wait from focal and 2-3 weeks from FT.

Fasttech all day long.

That is one option, The easier one is look under the settee cushions for lost coins

I don`t think selling any would be a great plan . I would be worried about fitment with every tank of mine measuring slightly different , and I don`t think such a small part would be worth enough £`s to justify the time spent. Fastech should do some and sell em for $2.00
