Out Of Country Tracking Good Nothing On Usps

Is there a tracking number for the package?  If so I would go to the country of origin's tracking site and look it up there.  If it doesn't show it probably wasn't shipped.  I don't know where AM is, but if it's not domestic, try the country of origin's postal system website. 

 
have a question for anyone that may be able to offer some info - and, yes, i've read through the majority of the shipping/tracking forums so please don't bring out your pitchforks just yet if this has already been covered multiple times.  who knows, there's a good chance i may have missed it!  anyway - i placed an order with a popular email vendor late last week, and i very rarely use the tracking feature for updates.  my only concern is that the status has not changed from "Origin Post is Preparing Shipment" since the package was supposedly shipped (almost a week).

I am in no way doubting that the vendor isn't reliable, and, as mentioned earlier, i know that doesn't really mean shit when it comes to the dealings with usps!  is this normal for the majority?  i do remember someone stating that their order was never even updated and stayed in that status until the package arrived!  not stressing out, just curious more than anything!  any feedback would be much appreciated and if anyone else has firsthand knowledge of this i'd love to hear from ya /default_smile.png

 
@ slide -- No pitchforks here, but I do think you'd find it calming to re-read page one of this thread...

What you're describing has in fact been the usual for me: the "Origin Post" status stays stuck in place for several days, then several new scans are added all at once; those dates & times indicate the package has been getting scanned regularly all along its journey, it's just that the tracking site wasn't updated.

 
thanks, blue!  i actually found some extra info about 10 mins after that post!  it happens, i guess!  thanks again - have a good one /default_smile.png

 
I've some experience with indiapost (I think that was the name of it) and it was somewhat accurate while it was abroad. Eventually I could track it via USPS once it got over here but still not very accurate. The first time I was anxious and constantly checking. Generally it was always a few days off and my package arrived sooner than I thought. Not worth the anxiety of trying to check all the time, it's never spot on. Just my opinion. 

 
I have a couple international packages in transit atm.  Now that I've read this thread, I'm worried because I've been tracking (stalking) them many many times every day.  One is at a standstill for two weeks now and the other was at my local sorting facility yesterday, however today it appears to have been sent to a different sorting facility 2000 miles away!  Damn.  I almost wish I'd never gotten tracking numbers at all.

Could I have raised a red flag (fucked) myself via obsessive tracking?

 
im waiting on a gift from a popular email vendor that was one of 3 the 2 sent 48 hours after nimber1 arrived but didnt show up on the tracking website untill about 44 hours after id signed for em number 1 has dropped off the face of the earth a week ago really cant put ya mind at ease about excessive tn checking as theres no difinitive proof on this but from expierience trackings too stressfull for words really hope it all works out for ya @blackcat77 keep us posted n good luck

Yes. It's possible you could've fucked yourself with OCD tn checks, but more than likely you should be okay. A good rule of thumb is absolutely never check more than once a day (every other day would be even better if you can help it) and NEVER EVEREVER CALL THE SHIPPER (not that you were going to, but, yeah, very bad idea that raises flags rings bells and blows whistles).

Remember, the less attention you call to your package, the more likely it is to arrive. If possible, check the tn when you get it and when/if the shipment is overdue and that is it and that is all and go from there.

Good luck and I hope you receive!

Thanks guys.  Both packages did eventually show up.  I've gotten weird tracking numbers in the past that weren't even real, or did not show up in the american tracking sites, so i was a little too excited to be able to watch their progress.  I was a little over zealous and have learned to ease up on it in the future (I hope!).

Currently, I have one one the way with nothing more than a ship date and its soooo much less stressful on me.  *relaxed sigh* /default_smile.png

One more thing, both of those packages that I psycho-tracked required signatures & they were from vendors that don't normally ask for that.

Confusion.  /default_unsure.png

Hi, this is important info that I had not known until seeing it here. With the recent crackdowns on certain sites and products, its even more important for others to know IMO.

ZZ.... one thing I just want to put out there. Please don't bang the TN's several times a day hoping they "update" it. They will flag the pack if they see an unusual number of hits on a TN and put the pack through higher scrutiny... can leade to a higher likelihood of interdiction of said package, for what it's worth.

S-
 
When you say country of origins tracking site are you just going to the country searching for their mail service and they offer tracking on their site or their end?  I've been trying to figure out how everyone is tracking them on that end.

  16. LW815 @ LW815: Know what’s really going on in somebody else’s head or how much they’re really dealing with and feel like they’re left with no other options. Been a very sad few days but 2 complete (irl anyway) strangers cared enough about what I was going through to talk to me about it, though they owe me nothing and have no reason to help my personal pain other than the kindness in their own hearts. Just shows that this place is a real community, not just a forum of people who only care about themselves.
  17. LW815 @ LW815: Was nodding in/out the entire time writing those shouts and spparently was fully out sending the last one lol. But II find it ‘uplifting’ as two people I’ve never actually met and only know the others online presence through subscriptions, who I have a better chance of getting a handy J from Jesus Christ himself, both were so quick to share their own experience and wise words and assurances that things will look up and not to feel guilty or be mad at somebody for going that route - as you never
  18. xenxra @ xenxra: @hotdog45 meh, same difference. they both got blacklisted on here. wouldn't be the first time a rogue shop sent out unsolicited comms after the fact.
  19. MOD @ MOD: Hello @everyone
  20. LW815 @ LW815: Own personal experience with this kind of this type kind of situation and sympathized with my pain when I really just needed somebody to talk to. Both went out of their way to help a stranger in a time of need when I really needed somebody, and body to talk to. MM
