Anyone else tracking a FedEx package right now? WTF??

Post by TU BE »

My tracking info has not updated since the 9th. Says it's still on schedule for delivery today but the last scan was "left FedEx origin facility" in Reno, NV.

Had this problem last week with US Postal. What the postal worker said was they were partnered in some way with FedEx? Not really sure but there was like a 2-3 day window where no details had been updated.

I've had that same thing happen randomly with deliveries. Package ships, a delivery date is posted, no updates - shipment arrives on delivery date. I haven't been able to detect a pattern as to why that happens. Most of the time the tracking works as expected.

Regarding USPS. That number they give you is a "Delivery Confirmation" number, not a shipping progress number. Some post office workers call it a tracking number but it is not a tracking number in the same sense as a FedEx or UPS tracking number. They should always refer to it as a Delivery Confirmation number.

I get this problem with FedEx occasionally. Updates stop at a certain point and then all of a sudden, my package arrives.

Maybe they've changed it - improved service is always welcome. Back when I used to be a fairly active seller on eBay I complained to my local postmaster (my neighbor) about the lack updates and he explained the "delivery confirmation" only thing to me. I searched the USPS site and confirmed that it was indeed the case at the time. I may actually pay attention to those shipping numbers they give me now instead of ignoring them.

I hear ya. I used to not even bother typing in the number but with the hyperlinks from shipment emails being easy to click on my iPad I tried it. :D

It's crazy and I'm still not used to it. USPS tracking?? Just typing that feels wrong

I'm tracking 2.

One is filled with Hops and Beer ingredients, the other is filled with brewing and kegging hardware. I've got a third that I'm waiting on confirmation on...but it haven't received it yet.

Fucking $600 on beer making equipment.



Also, if anyone cares, I tasted some of the hot sauce I made a few months ago.

Utter shit.


Salty and shitty...but HOT AS FUCKALL.

I'm HOPING it will be better when cold.
My trash is whitest.
