Title: Express mail tracking not working
Post by: cooksy on February 13, 2013, 03:23 am
So my express package was shipped a little over 24 hrs ago. When I try to track it, it gives me this message

"Delivery status information is not available for your item via this web site. A return receipt after mailing may be available through your local Post Office."

The last time it did this I ended up never receiving the package. Anyone have any experience with this? Does the tracking just not show up sometimes? Also, fuck usps, every time I use them theres always a problem

That's the message you get when there's no record of that package at all.  Enter any random string, you'll get the same message.

Either your vendor is scamming and never sent it, or they're just being particularly slow and haven't scanned the tracking properly.  Maybe it has something to do with the recent switch away from DCNs.  shrug.  I wouldn't know.

Almost 100% sure the vendor isnt scamming me cause the last time this happened he did a reship when the express package didnt arrive after 3 days. Also, he shipped me some extras over an issue that was out of his control, so I feel pretty safe in saying that he wouldnt try something like that. Just wanted to know if anyones ever experienced getting their package before the tracking info ever shows up
