Apart from delays on pre-order items, most are sent out within 3 days then its 10-14 days wait for china post option. Only check tracking if its not arrived after 2 weeks. Only had problem once out of 30+ orders, with a recent order being stuck at HMRC UK. As soon as they can figure out what the hell all the bits are, Im sure it will land on my doorstep. Its great when you get things you forgot about turn up.

I only order stuff from China that I don't need quickly. I check to make sure it's been shipped then leave it for a couple of weeks. Once it says it's in the UK I don't check again as it never seem a to get updated from there

I only order stuff I can wait for. If I need it urgently the local vape shop usually have it, if I can wait a few days then online vendor. I use China for wants rather than needs.

Order and forget. Order again and forget. Order duplicates in error and forget. Order stuff that has no relation to vaping, like spare car light bulbs, a silicone amplification horn to attach to the bottom of an iPhone, a stainless steel camping knife, a string of LED lights, some spare bottles (oops, back to vaping again), and so it goes on. All of a sudden, you have little yellow envelopes arriving every day, until all your little orders are completed. Talking of which, I have just paid for a Subtank Plus from a kind forum member, and need some spare heads . . .

Been there Andy! Ordering all sorts just in case it'll come in handy someday, especially when there's nowt vaping related I'm after; I don't seem to be able to help myself! Been through the small tools phase, the dremmel spares, toothbrush heads, more tweezers than a beauty parlour, enough batteries to power a caravan, bulbs, LEDs, torches! There's something satisfying about getting home and finding the yellow parcel on the mat I reckon, my last purchases have been back to vaping though I got thirty of These tall skinny 30ml bottles for about a tenner delivered yesterday, and there's a spare billow v2 on the way. Cancelled a Goliath earlier cause I'd forgotten I'd ordered it and another one arrived on Tuesday from Gearbest! Just checked my order history to see, and they've had a total of 96 and counting! First order was a 100mah ego battery and a ce4 clearo 2 1/2 years ago

Like others here, I would order from China if it is something that I am not in a hurry for (I tell myself) as it might just be some coils or something, where the cheaper cost out weighs the wait of a week or so.

When you cant find any vape gear there are always plenty of other things that make want to spend. A 10,000 mah battey pack with solar panel or a wrist watch made from wood. Really, I just got one from gearbest. Cant wear metal without breaking out.
