Do you ever get a REAL tracking number when you order from GearBest ?

Thanks, i have 2 package at NL post, and 17track seem didnt give any info

Sadly, both 17track and postnl provide same infomation

Does the tracking number end in NL? It is on way.
It will change at any time, when it arrives in Netherlands, to The item is at the PostNL sorting center and later to The item is on transport to the country of destination

I use trackitonline.ru to track my packets

It’s like “fake news”, until it changes from “pre-advised” they haven’t actually shipped anything yet.

My track code said” the package at shipper warehouse”, what does it mean?

Yes, they do, but my point is, they are just faster compared to the link provided in the vendor’s My Orders tracking info.

Probably more “fake news”.
GearBest, like many big merchants, don’t actually store and ship most of the goods themselves. They function more like an umbrella organization for all the smaller companies that actually handle the goods.
So my guess is that nothing has physically been sent yet.

Try with trackitonline.ru and select SKY56 carrier

Yes, end in NL :). But always “pre-advised” takes 4-5 days for me :frowning:

Now it said my package not in database
If i select”auto detect carrier. It said” arrived at sorting place”

Thanks for this tatasal. This one works. I have a DHL tracking number that was "not found" when I try to track it directly at DHL's website but I was able to track it using the website you posted.

Keeping a shortcut to this website for future tracking : -)

Hmm… there must be some irregularities here, I ordered last february 5, and as of this writing February 20, “the item is pre-advised” is still the status. :person_facepalming: Banggood has faster delivery and more status update.

+1 for BG, got”the item is pre-advised” since the 14th feb, and no update since then
really angry, why BG doesn’t have Utorch

Oh, I would’t worry much about that ‘pre-advised’ notice, it happens plenty of times, perhaps the typist simply does not update right away, haha.
Sometimes tracking suddenly updates and jumping to ‘dispatched to country of destination’.

I experienced similar notices a lot of times since I started buying online, regardless who the vendor is.

Free shipping won’t receive “real tracking number”.
For important stuffs, I always added extra $1-2 to get “real tracking number”.

Yeah, they are just shipping info from Unregistered Parcels, invoice shipping record or waybill, which is entirely different, and obviously just that, no tracking information.

USPS even issues shipping label but sometimes does not update promptly even when package already shipped.

i paid extra to get Real tracking number, but all info they provided me is” the item is pre-advised”
meanwhile in banggood. free shipping, real tracking code

THIS

Probably the reason on some orders I never got a real tracking number.

I notice that the ‘pre-advised’ info usually is given by postNL, and some other postal services has different terms about it…IIRC.
