Just request that they declare the proper amount on the package. I asked GB to do that when I ordered. It is actually international postal fraud and for some reason they don't understand that.
This is for anyone willing to take the "risk" ordering from Fasttech. Let me also say that i've received all my parcels so far despite them saying that ecigs are banned in South Africa:
1. This is when you go to checkout if you have a mod/Tank in your cart:
2. Select "Ship to a new address" then select Zimbabwe. Select desired shipping method.
3. Click on "Select from address book". Do not click on "Ship Here"
4. Click on "Continue"
5. Select payment method. Then pray that our customs are in a good mood.

Just an update..
I received a Fasttech package today, another one is in JHB..
Gearbest app says shipping unavailable for SA..
My experiences with 3fvape have been fine so far.. I have always received orders from Chinese vendors and have bought from more vendors than I can remember, but the common ones are 3avape, 3fvape, sourcemore, efun, fasttech, gearbest, that's all I remember now..

Soooo... An rta finally arrived through SAPO. 17track indicated arrived at CapeMail yesterday and being processed. So I do what I normally do and off I go to CapeMail this morning. Guess what? For the first time ever they processed in a few hours and sent it out to Milnerton depot. So I missed it. And I can't get the number of location for Milnerton depot. So now it'll be another week.
Why does it always work like this?
Yip, so close. At least I went and bought batteries from vaporize.co.za today.
So at least I don't feel empty handed from today's trip.
Not recently with the heavy inflow of packages. But it looks like that has subsided now and things are moving again. But today they were too quick for me.
I try and catch packages as soon as they hit my local post office. It can take up to a week for the postman to deliver the notice these days even though post office is just 2km away. Used to be in my postbox within 3 hours sometimes, but our little post office is packed to the brim lately.

@SinnerG so you're getting it together - in bits and pieces. Never mind - the whole is greater than the parts thereof! What's Vaporize like? I should go there as they're not too far from Yzer - probably about an hour's drive or so

lol count yourself lucky to have a Post Office. Here in Yzerfontein, our one-and-only P.O. was closed down a few months ago, because the one-and-only employee left! Don't blame her either - she had to pay the rent out of her own pocket!!
I placed my order at something like 3AM in the morning (fixing stupid postgresql database upgrade
) and got a message at 7:47AM that I can collect. Just didn't have time to have a chat as I was in a rush.
Bloody hell. They closed down Bayside post office some time back, now the small Tableview post office handles everything.
They should put those copious R24 handling fee payments to use and sort things out.
Okay order status is "Shipped" now we wait..
Hope our stuff arrive safely
This one was quicker than I thought.
Second one here as well.

Just had a look, mine arrived as well, waiting on SA post and customs now. Looks like the workaround method worked, well for when we placed our orders lol, don't know if they fixed the workaround yet or not.

Arrival at Destination Post (Country: ZA)
I dont understand how packages previously took a month+ to get here. It only took two weeks now. Maybe they got too many orders from SA.
