Speedpak, great, but who actually delivers it in Canada..?

I see all these post about delivery standards, and the complaints in regards to it..

 

..but I see nothing in regards to which company(s) actually takes care of the shipping once it gets to Canada.

 

So who actually delivers it in Canada..?

 

And why isn't that detailed information listed in the tracking details..?

 

I see a date and the "item has been processed", but by who..?

 

I see  it's been "delivered to local facility", but where is it..?

 

..and when I do click on the tracking number it always goes to a blank page..?

 

Seriously, how hard is it, it's not brain surgery and or rocket science..

 

As usual it's an epic fail in the long list of epic fails by this selling format..

Apparently there are some variables - for example: 

Standard SpeedPAK is trackable all the way, while Economy SpeedPAK is not.

It is my understanding Canada Post is the carrier when the package arrives in Canada, but that is dependent upon size of package....

However, you may want to check out this older thread:

It’s a bit US-centric, but there’s more info on SpeedPAK and a tracking tool here:

With the realization that the Dunning-Kroger Effect is in full control of my typing fingers:

They don't tell you because they don't know in advance how the "last mile" delivery will be done.

While usually they will use Canada Post, at times they may use other small, local firms.

 

..and when I do click on the tracking number it always goes to a blank page..?

 

Now that is a Big Problem.

 

Except that it really isn't for the Buyer.

You got a deadline for delivery from eBay.

If the seller cannot prove delivery after that date, you will be refunded.

If the carrier cannot deliver (you are not home and he needs a signature) he will leave a Notice telling you where and when you can pick up your shipment.

Tracking has little value for the buyer. It will not speed up delivery nor will it protect against damage in transit.

With Canada now in its 4th week of a nationwide postal strike good luck to everybody awaiting order shipped by speedpack China or any other postal service in the world for that matter.
There will be a huge backlog to be handled once this strike is over and long delays might be expected.

You have responded to a thread from 2020 that really is irrelevant since the current CPStrike was not an issue OP was dealing with...
