I knew sometimes dropping expedited parcel on the street box made me not sleep well, but I was so lazy to go to PO.
And this time really make me nervous.
Dropping on Tuesday (05/03) and my package have not got scanned at all.
Tracking in Canada Post website just said order information received by Canada Post.
Unfortunately it is a $150 items.
Just posting to release my worry.
Cross fingers and toes.

Tracking does not work, never has, never will. Unless you micro-chip the thing and follow it with a GPS, forget about it.
There is no service guarantee with Expedited.

Sometimes they forget to scan and sometimes it won't scan until it gets to major sorting facilities

Thank you guys, bit comforting.
Did not use expedited that much, but ussualy mine which always dropped in the conner box got scanned at least after 36 hours ( 1 and half day).

I have had the same thing happen - but the package was delivered.
Now however, I take all the packages to the Post Office and I stand there until they scan it in.

inuk_the_polar_bear has 0% feedback - has lots of negatives on his account and has not sold anything since July 2011, and has nothing for sale, Thus I would not consider them a reliable source of any information. I currently would ignore them, but I smell a rat.

@ orphanitems. I think you need an attitude adjustment, and you owe inuk an apology
03-08-2013 06:14 AM
Lol. The tracking system is just a joke. Just ignore it and wait for the luck. Most customers are honest and patient.

Great day, finnally no more worry.
After 5 days since I dropped finnaly there was update on my parcel, "item proccessed at local delivery facility Calgary".
This mean, I might be still continue to toss all my shipment in the street boxes. It is very convinience for me because there are 2 boxes just in front of our building :^O
