I have a question for those who have ordered more than one item from China.... I ordered one item on the 22nd - it was accepted by China post on the 24th - coming registered mail - no other tracking info available. I ordered another item on the 24th - it was accepted on the 26th and was listed as sorted on the 28th... Since there seems to be a disconnect on the first item - do I have anything to worry about? Or is the tracking info from these sellers (even though I have a registered mail #) hit and miss?

Is there a better place to look up these tracking numbers than USPS? They are coming from different sellers.

Probably should have paid extra - but everyone here seems to get their items in a decent amount of time.

I'm sure they're fine. They wont start being updated regularly until they hit the states. give it a few more days

mine says arrival at office exchange USA

From china... Got there yesterday and hasn't done anything since. USPS still says whatever it said the first time accepted in china.

It shipped the 26th.
 
You have nothing to worry about. I had something sent from China. Ordered on the 24th-

29th it said it was held in customs..
30th it said it was released.. Im guessing west coast.
On the SAME day it was at my house in Texas
 
I still have a registered package rrXXXXXXXcn that only shows accepted 11/24 by China Post - (ordered 11/21)

and another raXXXXXXXcn that says accepted china post 11/26 - preparing for shipment 11/28 (Ordered 11/23)

No changes since 11/28

the track-chinapost doesn't show either of these packages existing - I'll try the second one (packagtrackr)

Cheers

Is that website packagetrackr for real? If so - it is fantastic! It shows much more information than USPS or china post - it even states that my packages may be in the US....

I will definitely bookmark it!

Thank you....

Yes of course it's real! I too had a package coming from China last month and the china post website Would not accept the tracking number a seller gave me. So after about 5 days I thought the guy was scamming me. So i contacted him and he linked me to the website. It's way better than anything else I've ever used with reguards to tracking, even a companies own website :D

It has a huge list of companies from all over the world and it works :D
 
I have purchased a couple single item things from ebay and the both provided shipping. Updates were slow and took about 3 weeks to arrive.
