New mod advice please.

Ha, I had the same issue when I received mine. Enjoy the eVic Mini by the way, its a lovely little device. Don't forget to upgrade the firmware when you get it.

Apparently the evic has been shipped from fast tech, but the tracking info has stayed the same since I got the email notification.
The email said it had been shipped (31st Oct) but the tracker says only "received" (2nd Nov) and no other info.

It's probably nothing to worry about, but I've never ordered from abroad before and am probably a bit antsy because of that.

I wouldn't worry as these trackers rely on the courier scanning in the parcel at each and every stage, and often this doesn't happen. It's probably waiting for a suitable aeroplane, slow boat, camel train, donkey cart at the moment. I find that sometimes the parcel even though delivered to my home is still showing in the tracker as in transit, often not showing as being in the UK. Which company is it being delivered with.

ahh, so these are standard issues when buying from abroad

All good then.

At least I've broken my "order from abroad" cherry if nothing else

Singapore Post is the courier apparently.

[sydsut]

I've found Singapore post to be slower in the past than China Post, so if offered a choice I always plump for China Post. But You will receive it in the next fornight or so. You're right it's just one of those things you have to put up with when buying from China. But the savings make it all worth while IMHO.

when buying from the far east do all your agonising before you click the pay button, then do your best to put it from your mind, it will arrive in a week or 2 or perhaps 3 whether your worrying about it or not

fwiw i received a small fasttech order today that was dispatched on October 27th (10 days in transit)

Thanks for the help and info guys.

That's why this place is awesome
