Hope this lightens up your day. I had a packaged shipped to me from the UK on Nov 7th and no tracking update whatsoever on usps.com since then (always "origin is preparing shipment", without date or time), but finally today I had a call from the post office and it was here :yes:.
 
I called today and still no updates. It really sucks.
Thank you WIA for your precious help! :flowers:
:hugs: :hugs: :hugs:

**Look below though at Chestnutty's post! :nuts: :yahoo:

So glad to hear you received your package. Can you tell me, when you did pick it up from the post office, if the package got a final scan? I mean, you can see that from "origin post is pr..." went to "delivered"? If not, well I just hope my buyer is honest and really did not receive it because if it does not get scanned at least upon delivery ... well I'll never know.
I've been sending packages to US (and worldwide) with this method from the longest time and never never had any problem, it's just bizarre that the first and only time there's no tracking... well the buyer does not get it? KWIM?

Yes it changed to "arrival at sort unit", "notice left", and "delivered" on the same day (yesterday - the day I picked it up). No other scans recorded (even NYC ISC). I did have to sign for the package as it's a registered mail.

That's exactly what happened with my package. I believe that even it is not get scanned through its journey, when they deliver to the recepient, it has to get scanned.
I am still waiting to see updates for the second package sent on November 6th. Still ''processed though sort facility-Athens'' on the USPS tracking page.

I really hope you find out what's happened. The fact that the tracking never updated, even at the last step ''delivered'' makes me think that the buyer never received it, and it is lost somewhere on the postal system. I hope you will be able to find it!
 
So frustrated! Still no updates for the packaged I mailed on November 6th from Greece to US. Still ''processed through sort facility-Athens''.
 
Ugh! So I'm not the only one frustrated and worried! Mailed a large flat book via media to my buyer on Nov 17 and the tracking is totally blank! I emailed that P.O. said it could take several weeks but worried that the tracking it blank. Hopefully the buyer is honest if (s)he receives it and tracking remains blank. It wasn't a lot of $$ but still...
