Another Fasttech Question.

[Petrus]

Hi Guys.
I am a noob at ordering from Fasttech. If you order say 4 items from Fasttech and choose the "faster" shipping method and their is different shipping dates next to the items, do they wait till the last one is in stock before they ship? The reason for asking is, I don't think they will send every item separately? Thanks.

They wait to make up the whole consignment before posting. The dates are also very off at times. I have split orders per the advertised availability date just to find that all of them were delayed due to stock not being delivered on the dates they advertised.

Yes, they will wait for everything to be in stock, if there is a delay they will let you know and give you the option to cancel the offending item or ship it separately.

That is why I like to buy local. Pull the trigger and the next day I get a visit from The Courier Guy.

oh and, don't trust their dates when ordering any "pre-order" items, they're almost always overly optimistic.

Just order stuff you're not in a hurry for.

Things like batteries that you know you're still good but will need to replace in 6 months because that's about how long batteries take since they can only ship them by sea but at the 3rd the price, it's well worth it.

Then things like certain types of cotton etc where there are alternatives locally to keep you going for a month and order the bulk from there for the next year or 2 since you probably pay the same as the monthly cost for that volume, lol.

I try to find expensive electronic stuff like mods locally though so the warranty is easily accessed if there are issues. That being said though, I have ordered some electronic things from them since it was so much cheaper and on the occasions where they were defective, I logged a complaint/return/ refund whatever and they always gave my money back and asked me not to return it but keep it.

Delivery is free on everything so I split my orders as well if I'm impatient for something that is in stock. Everything that is in stock and ships in one day as one order. All 5 days on there own. All 7 days on their own. Batteries on there own ALWAYS since they will hold everything up on the slow boat.
