Can Anybody help with Tracking Numbers USPS

Post by Oozzee »

Hi All,
wondering if anyone in the States/Canada is able to help with tracking this package, LC660194101US
this was meant to be sent on the 22-12-14, i am unable to log on and track this due to the fact that i am in Australia.
Looking to see if it has been sent/Lost, or if i have just been ripped off.
on a side note aren't USPS easy to deal with ( not ) :evil:
Any help would be much appreciated
cheers

Won't come up here either - says "USPS Tracking™ is unavailable for this product for AUSTRALIA." Don't know if that means that they can't track it, or just that you can't track international packages (never tried USPS for international shipping - heck, I avoid them for domestic shipping too!)

Sorry.

Tracking is unavailable for that package. Likely the same error it gives you, as tracking is not available for Australia

That sounds like the usual response you get for something that can only be tracked in North America.... once it leaves, tracking becomes 'not available' due to leaving the continent. Does not mean it's not coming, and could even mean it's on the slow boat.... in which case it'll arrive in a few months... :cry:

Hope it does arrive, would be a shame to have to start ANOTHER thread about lousy US dealers..... :lol: 8) :wink:

That does not look like a tracking number more like a customs label number which means you have to call some special phone number I think to track it in the US.

You can put tracking service on a USPS "package" but it only tracks it in the US - which will at least prove it was shipped. I have shipped a lot of things internationally some get there surprisingly fast. Other look like they were lost, most of the time it has to do with customs in the receiving country.

Hi Guys,

So 4 days from postage to arriving in Australia.

Currently 9 days in Australia, still not in my hands :!: :x

Yesterday I decided to ring Australia Post, waited on the phone line for 18 minutes, spoke to a guy

only to find out that he can't help me.

So he transfers me to another department now International post she can't tell me any more than

the first guy.

Basically Customs have it and when they get to it they get to it. :!:

What a s**t service.

Dave. :x
