Yeah, I got 3 FedEx packages seemingly stuck at “Label created” for a coupla weeks.
Timewise, I haven’t seen all that much difference between “untracked” (Azerbaijan Post) and tracked (various). A little over 3wks for untracked, just about 3wks for tracked. Seems to be a few days difference at most.
For AzPost, they go pretty quickly until “transit center, left hand navigation” (wtf??), then a flurry of messages, then forever stuck in “US, the transfer of customs”. When it finally shakes loose, it’s another few days ’til it wends its way through the USPS.
What bugs me is that the USPS changed all their email alerts Now it’s only “package received” and then boom, a week later, “delivered”. Wtf?? I used to get all the various status messages, in Chicago ISC, in New York ISC, in Brooklyn Distribution Center, in Queens Distribution Center, in Flushing, in transit to the post office, in the post office, out for delivery, delivered. And all the other steps in-between (incl. arrived at, departed, for each one, etc.).
I’m hitting the USPS site several times per day for each package, just to see the status. Was much nicer to just see the status messages roll into my inbox. So much for “simplifying” things…
Anyway, never ordered anything from BG yet, but GB seems to be kinda consistent, or at least the carriers do.
I’m just waiting for about a dozen things to shake loose from customs… :zipper_mouth_face:
