when I go to fastech tracking it says shipped and shows me a pic of the actual package with our name and address on the label

Who are the carriers @vickywood  the tracking should show that, and isn't there a Tracking Number to click on which will take you to the carriers site or 17Track site where you should get more info.

That's brilliant @vickywood, I've just ordered a few myself as I'm running out of 15ml bottles from China.

Ah yes, International airmail is Swiss Post and they don't do tracking as I found to my concern a few weeks ago. But the package still arrived in 13 days. So no real complaints.

is 17 days about right (so far)?

From the details given the order was only placed on the 10th march, and no ship date given. So hard to tell when it will arrive. You have to remember that like the Americans the Month and Day dates are back to front to us Brits.

awww no so its only been 10 days? it seems 17 well more like a month lol, guess I'm waiting waiting waiting

@vickywood- Fasttech may still be recovering from their 2 week New Year holiday. About 2 weeks is the average minimum for delivery, so they certainly aren't overdue yet!
Treat yourself to a BOGOF from JooseJuice and save all bottles to begin with, or take some of the links from above. You can bet your bottom dollar that the FT ones will arrive the day after the UK-sourced ones though!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news @vickywood, but that Amazon vendor is in Hong Kong, so you're unlikely to get this lot before the FT ones

Bugger! I've ordered them too

I've tried several of the cheap deals from China and haven't yet found any with decent narrow tips for those tricky atomiser filling ports (Erl & Aqua but also Kayfuns).
The cheap-ish needle-tip bottles from FastTech are pretty good but the needles start to gunk up after a couple of weeks and they're a bit tall for my juice drawer.

I'm at the stage where I'm producing lots of 5/10ml testers and 10ml samples for friends but wanting larger bottles for myself.

So I've nabbed a box of 100x 10ml bottles (with narrow tips) from flavourartuk (still on special offer at £15 + a couple of quid postage) and the chunky 15ml bottles from eBay (that I suspect will actually take 20ml) that are actually from The Plastic Bottles Company in Cumbria who sell a huge range of sizes, including screw-top bottles (useful for those of us mixing by weight).

[Perpetua]

These might not be fine enough for some filling holes . . . but I've found them worth keeping some in as they fit the majority of bottles that I seem to buy:

[Q]

I've just looked through my recipes and I have one that is 34% flavouring but most are around the 18-24%
A lot depends on who's concentrate you use, some are good at only 5% (not many) whilst others need a good 20% to get the flavour.
