Is this what it looks like when US customs screws with an order???

I have an order coming in from Banggood and it appears to maybe be stuck in Chicago, but I do not really understand what the tracking is telling me. Looks like it is going from China to Chicago and back to China. I have a cut and paste from my browser…

This means Banggood has asked for a tracking number.

The facility (post office) has received the item and is processing it for shipment to Chicago.

It has left the facility and sent to airport for dispatch.

It is waiting for, or on, the airplane.

Thats the way I read it anyway :smiley:

first… “chinese lumens”
then… “chinese definition of ‘in stock’…”
then… “chinese XML = lattice bright emitter”

now? chinese tracking, lmFao…

what i would call “american tracking” every LINE is a different location, and, i can “track” the package making its way to me, line by line… heck the fact that i can “track” the package from hop to hop, line by line? Probably why they called it “tracking”, lol

whether i pay for tracking from china or not? (3 times now…) I have YET to get an “actual” tracking number that “actually” tracks a package… shrugs

it just says, if anything at all? “nothing”… “nothing”, “nothing”… then i get a message on my CELL PHONE that says it was delivered and its always on my mailbox in plastic bag after i get that text message.

I think the first origin post is China and the second origin post is USPS after clearing customs.
