Is USPS tracking slow these days?

it depends. I think sellers who buy label and drop at post office it's comes up same day.
Once I had one bag I bought which never even went in the system, but it turned up.

Thank you everyone!

I guess I'm afraid that the seller bought the label so that there is a tracking number (and therefore "proof" of shipment), but never actually ends up shipping the item!

This is the first time the tracking number hasn't been updated for almost 4 days now (still says electronic order received). Hopefully I'm just worring for nothing!

Their tracking system is nothing you can rely on to track a package. It is nothing like UPS.

It seems to be very rarely updated. Seller shipped a bag to me on the 18th, still showing as 'accepted' Would be nice to have to reassurance to track it along the way! xx
