I love my Pico's (75w) however my trusted 1st buy has finally decided it will not charge via the usb any more and this is a problem for me as I tend to use onboard charging almost exclusively especially when on holiday. I am now in fairly urgent need of a replacement by Saturday. Ideally it would be the rose pink one, but needs must so I will have to consider other colours, and a UK seller however being a staunch China buyer I balk at paying double the price of Fasttech. Has anyone come across a UK seller with isticks in stock for a decent price?

TBH, we (well, Mrs.G-J) has got the NME copies of 30, 40 and Pico, and they've been as good as the originals, hence why I don't disregard copies (and save a few quid on the way)

I've nothing against copies either must confess GJ - but when you can get the genuine article for just a couple of quid more, then personally I'd rather go genuine.
Which is my roundabout way of saying I've just bought the kit bear kindly posted the second link to, a purchase I blame entirely on him and snow !
( Some of the prices on Ebay do seem incredibly cheap for genuine Eleaf stuff! )

Thanks everyone I decided to go with the ebay one - my thought process being that its an allegedly UK seller so has a better chance of it getting here on time, plus theres the ebay buyer protection so if it comes and looks shoddy and doesn't work as expected then it'll go back. The Vaporl one is also in my basket (in white) which I may also purchase to replace my white one which although working just fine is only a month or so younger than my pink one, meantime I can use my rainbow one to charge with and swap the battery to the pink one lol

How's it performing? It arrived 15 mins ago and this was what I just sent to the seller 5 mins ago before coming here to let everyone know lol They got the colour right though and if the ruddy top cap would screw on over the battery then I might have been tempted to write it off as lesson learned and got some use out of it anyway. I even tried using the genuine top cap from my old one but that wouldn't screw down either. I just about got it closed but there was then a big gap between the cap and the top of the mod and it wasn't on straight. I refuse to pay any return postage for it so they had better offer me a prepaid label else I'll go down the paypal report a fake route.
