Fasttech are great!

However you do need to be patient, especially if ordering batteries or anything with a batter in it as it has to travel by slower means to the UK because of not being able to put batteries on planes.

So the general rule is order from Fasttech for goods that you are not in a hurry for, then try to forget that you've ordered it. Then you get nice surprises turning up on your doorstep.

Old info there DiscoDes , batteries are coming through as fast as normal stuff, you just choose SwedenPost as your shipping option, they are the only ones who will fly batteries

Yes but Sweden post is still minimum 3 weeks delivery and as much as 5 weeks (15 to 25 business days)

I haven't used SwedenPost myself but word on the grapevine is that delivery is as good as other methods

Always, I say Always, read the discussion threads once the products have been received.
FT seem to be selective about accepting negative reviews (I've only had positives published) but, with the exception of gross misbehaviour, the discussions are pretty much unmoderated and sometimes very helpful.

I had a package waiting for me yesterday when I got in from work, and I didn't even know I had ordered the contents! 15 x tall slimline 30ml juice bottles, a thermometer for the van, and a Taifun v2 in a natty little circular zipped case, complete with the usual bag o' bits.
A very pleasant surprise

Hi All

After the good advice I received yesterday regarding hardware I have now ordered some bits from FastTech as myepack were out of stock. Has anyone had any dealings with them and am I likely to receive authentic goods?

The reason I am now questioning this is that I was on the Kangertech authentication site earlier to check an Evod Mega kit I bought elsewhere (which was genuine) and noticed under the copycat tab that FastTech are listed No.5 as selling Kangertech fakes here's the link www.kangertech.com/?copycat.html

Has anyone any thoughts or experience with them

Many thanks

Yes Fastech are legit, and do stuff way cheaper than buying here. Sure it sells fake gear as well as authentic.
When you want to try a Kayfun and find they are £100+, Buying a copy off of FT will set you back £15.
They say is an item is authentic or not, its in the wording, someone mentioned it in 1st reply, just look out for that if you want a genuine product that is made in china anyway.
I have used FT many many times and you get a feel for when something looks poor quality. Most of the stuff is pretty good, and will save you a small fortune.
last time i used them i think shipping was quicker using the ChinaPost option when ordering.
4-5 weeks going via Singapore which was the default option.
3 weeks using ChinaPost.

A bit late, but never mind.
I have used FT for a few items, but only if I am not in a hurry for something, like some extra coils for my Nautili tanks, spares etc.
The only problems for me, is that when I check the delivery options, it is always the default as all the others say 'cannot deliver to your area'...............is that because my Kingdom is the Isle of Wight post code I wonder ?

But yes, they always state 'Authentic' in their description of the item.
