International shipping delays

[82DMC12]

Sometimes your package does not get scanned when it leaves customs. I had one guy get his package and I still thought it was in New York Customs.

I figured ANPOST would hand off the package to the domestic carrier and I could continue tracking it using the same tracking code. I'm not sure if it has been handed off or not. Fedex you would think the same code works internationally.

Anyway, another day has passed and no movement on my two packages.

Only countries participating in E-USPS DELCON INTL will report back full tracking:

This list grows smaller every year which is why I'm steering customers toward GlobalPost, which offers full tracking for all countries and costs less.

Remarkably my order came from DeLoreanGo at 8pm today from the UK to NY, just 48 hours after ordering. That was with $40 2 day FedEx shipping.

Hello from Canada,

we have been dealing for this for about (forever) years now.

As an extra gut punch after it sits at the border for however long they may send it back or send you a nice bill for all their hard work (taxes and duties). I live two hours from the US border, shipping instantly doubles once it crosses that line in either direction.

Now with the trucker's strike things are coming to a complete halt. Auto plants are cutting shifts or shutting down. It's also going to get hard to get dairy products in Canada. Looks like things are going to get a lot worse before they get better. And when they get better be prepared for higher prices. We are witnessing the supply chain falling apart.

I think it’s just another result of the overblown reaction to COVID. Once the world catches up to the fact that our leaders are lying to us, things will get back to normal.

I second that. Circus-19 has to end.

Well, my FedEx package is now "out for delivery" 14 days after shipping. My other package from Ireland is still stuck at Heathrow. WTF

My Express package departed Japan yesterday so I guess it arrived in Australia today. It really sucks for "3 day shipping". Now packages in the US seem to run pretty good with priority taking 2 or 3 days even though the USPS label estimates 5 or 6 days.

Now my first class mail package to the UK sent the same day as the Express package is showing out for delivery.

I just shipped two overseas orders yesterday. Australia USPS only does Priority Express. This is relatively new since before I could ship first class mail. The other order was first class mail to the UK. Looking at tracking it does look like the Express is moving faster but that cost was $50 more than the old first class cost.

Normal first class mail has been taking about two weeks international. When the pandemic was in full swing some packages could sit in customs for up to one month.

Well according to tracking. That Express package was delivered 2-18-22 and the first class mail to ECU was delivered 2-15-22. Shipping to Australia is not good.

I received my package from DeLorean.eu via Fedex last week. My Ireland package has now been in transit for over three weeks and my most recent tracking update was on Feb 16 where it says

Your post has left An Post LONDON, HEATHROW TRANSIT HUB

So I don't really know if An Post will continue to track it in the USA or not. It might just show up at my address some fine day. Anyway, no updates for the last five days.
