Cannot resist so slung a blue one in cart, but the sods dont take paypal, my only other option is Mastercard, and them sods would charge me about £4 for currency conversion, so did resist in end  MP I've used Mastercard for everything I've had from Aliexpress, don't think I've been charged for currency conversion. Everything I see is in £s, and I pay in £s. The advantage over FT is that the price you see is the price you actually pay - everytime I order from FT, Evkoo or GearBest the Paypal price I've had to pay is higher than the price quoted on the product page. Plus with Aliexpress the seller doesn't get the money til you receive the goods and are happy with them. I'm an Aliexpress convert!  Edit - should have read further! Enjoy your blue iStick when it arrives, hubby is loving his. |

I'm sorry for the Paypal problems alex05, sounds like a nightmare. Hope you get it sorted soon! Just to let everyone know I got a tracking number from Colly early this morning for my missing GS16S - very impressed with the swift action from Evkoo to rectify a small mistake. Will definitely be ordering from them again. |

I've been pretty impressed by how Alex has dealt with everything so far, communication is always a good thing and he/she has done really well, especially considering the language differences. It seems all our pre-orders were sent on the same day, and I'd guess there were many, many more than just ours, so one forgotten GS16S is not much in the scheme of things. I'll wait to hear from Alex, I believe they are on holiday at the moment so I'm quite happy to wait a couple of days. The Mini looks quite good with a full size Protank on it, anyway! Hi dizzi, sorry for the mistake. We will send you the atomizer soon. Our customer service will email you more details. Sorry again & thanks for your understanding. That's great alex05, thank you for responding so quickly! |

Sorry to hear your GS16S was missing dizzi  I'm sure alex05 will resolve this for you when he sees your post  I've been pretty impressed by how Alex has dealt with everything so far, communication is always a good thing and he/she has done really well, especially considering the language differences.

My 2 iSticks turned up from GearBest today, very happy with them. The tracking was a bit odd, as it said "this item is pre-adviced" for about two weeks. NLPost says this means they have a tracking number, but not the parcel. Once they did have the parcel the tracking started to make sense, and it's now showing as delivered. I'll give GearBest the benefit of the doubt and will probably order from them again.

Mine landed this morning as well, and I love it! Unfortunately the GS16 S didn't arrive with it alex05, this was order number 100001233, shipment number 100000786. The packaging wasn't damaged (although the mini iStick box was a bit crushed inside the padded envelope) so it didn't fall out, looks like it wasn't included. Could you send it to me please Alex? |

Update: this arrived this morning, ordered on 16/12, posted on 19/12 and arrived less than 2 weeks later. It's not a bad bit of kit, charger and atomizer both included. Excellent value at £3.85. I'd be quite impressed with GearBest - if the 2 iSticks I ordered on the 12th and supposedly posted on 15th had also arrived. But not yet...

Thanks Q, I'll hang on another week or so and see what transpires. Seems a bit pointless having tracking if it doesn't get updated though. |

Merry Christmas all! I bought 2 iSticks from GearBest on 12th December, they were sent (supposedly) on 15th with tracking number RS198713363NL via Netherlands Post. Tracking is still saying "this item is pre-adviced" which seems to mean it's not actually been sent yet. As I've had half a dozen orders sent from China since then, from GearBest and elsewhere, most of which don't have tracking numbers, I know they are not on one of their many holidays. I wouldn't expect this to have arrived yet, but I would expect at least some information. Is this standard procedure and I just need to wait til the postie knocks on my door, or should I contact the vendor?

Looks like someone left off a "2", FT have what looks like the same one for $25.39. Hope they honour the price for you guys!

Not sure the atty comes with it: "Package contents: 1 x Electronic Cigarette Battery " no mention of anything else. Anyone know? Edit - GearBest have 900mAh Evod batts for about £3.50, so if this doesn't come with the atty/tank (which I don't recognise, Vivi Nova type?) then maybe not such a good deal? Edit again - sorry monty, wasn't meaning to diss your thread. I've been out of the buying loop so long I don't know what's a good deal any more! And another edit - bought one. Couldn't resist at that price. At the very least it can go into the ZAB (Zombie Apocalypse Box) or I can pass it on (with an atty if it doesn't come with one) to a new vaper. It's all good. I'll report back in a couple of months when it arrives. |

Already done and ordered robby! If Evkoo get them in I might add a pack to my order. The 5 from Aliex will probably see me right, especially if they're as easy to recoil as autumntwist says, but you can never have too many, amirite? |

I'm sure
