·2 years agoThat long long looooong list covers a whole TWO DAYS since the seller shipped it.
What dates were you given as a window for delivery.?
Mark your calendar and do something else until then.
STOP WATCHING TRACKING.

·2 years agoMy feedback is that after I eliminate all the duplicated and ambiguous scan information, I see an item that appears to be moving normally. Remember, your item isn't going on a solo road trip. It's travelling with dozens if not hundreds of other packages that have to be sorted and grouped and it's probably at that stage now.
After years of being a tracking geek, I've come to the conclusion that the value of tracking is mostly marketing puffery. Items arrive when they arrive in the condition in which they arrive and following the tracking doesn't change that. Knowing where and when your item was last scanned doesn't do anything to change the transport of your item. Unless your item is close to or way past the last estimated delivery date, there's really not much reason to keep checking your item's shipping progress. it's just adding to the anxiousness you're experiencing. I'd go for a walk.

·2 years agoIt's not unusual for items to be in customs for days, 24 hours is not long at all. Just wait it out, it doesn't mean there's a problem, this is totally normal.
