Just heard back from them re the SMY50W - seems they don't now have any in stock - yet when they took the money, it stated they would start checking it and packaging it ready for shipment which I should expect within 3 to 5 days (5th day was last Monday) - so I have asked them to cancel it and refund to PP

Got a little problem with them as well at the moment - item arrived Coventry (Express Mail) 19/05 then got sent back to China - don't know why, unless damaged, I've PMd Doris, but suppose she won't be back until Monday. Blimey youv'e got two lots of luck, none and bad At least Doris can normally get things sorted, amazing how these things always happen at the weekends though - thinking boilers breaking down etc., so you have to wait until Mondays  |

To balance the argument, i will use the following as they have been just about spot on, Fasttech, Focalecig, and 3Fvape.. all delivered and even back up service for a fault from Focalecig. Got a little problem with them as well at the moment - item arrived Coventry (Express Mail) 19/05 then got sent back to China - don't know why, unless damaged, I've PMd Doris, but suppose she won't be back until Monday. |

Nedpost is via Netherlands isn't it? Had some batteries from ft go that way. Takes up to 6 weeks to arrive Yes, batteries always take longer, this one took 10 days so not too bad, shame Gearbest mucked it up. |

glen will be copying to all forums Get your IPV 4 first lol Got plenty of time to put a paypal dispute in  and I'm making sure I keep the envelope which shows the weight on it, think an IPV v4 weighs a bit more than 4 grams |

This company really needs to get their act together - this time with a fully priced item.  On 16/03 placed Pre-Order for the IPV v4 they took payment on 10/04 then later they notified me that they had made a mistake and I had the option of cancelling or waiting another week or 2, wished now I had opted for the refund, they said they would also include a gift (Cloupor Mini skin) I had already bought the mod previously with no problems. 12/05 I finally get a shipping notice that says it has finally been sent via NedPost - today I receive small thin parcel ===just the gift - NO IPV v4 W T F Also waiting on another Pre-Order the SMY50w which should have shipped earlier this week |

Well mine arrived this morning (the white one) and thoughts so far, bottles too soft, plenty of slightly harder ones on the market though, post screws on the BF RDA are rubbish, would have been better with grub screws that seem to grab the wire better, first build was dual coil 26g 9 wraps round a 3mm mandrel coming out at 1 ohm, took too long to heat up, so reduced the coils down to 5 wraps, 2 taken off each end so that it came out at just over 0.5 ohm and was perfect using cotton as wick and Chef's Welsh Custard - a very nice vape indeed - well worth the price.
Might try some different screws in the posts or perhaps pin the wire at the top rather than in the post holes.

I normally just leave it in PP so that when I make the next payment they take less from my Bank a/c

One order refunded but the 2 for my brother not. Furthermore the refund has not been cleared yet as my PayPal show s a balance of £0.00! If you didn't have a cash balance in PP when you placed the order, then PP put it on hold for a few days. |
