I'm so excited! I ordered my MVP 2.0 on Thursday, and eBay at first said that I would have it before Tuesday. I've been tracking the package, and it says it's expected to be delivered today. However, the information hasn't been updated since 5/16 when it was in Missouri. I hope I don't have to be worried, and that it will really arrive later on this afternoon.

I also ordered four bottles of juice from Mt. Baker Vapor on Thursday, and that package is also supposed to come today. The tracking on that one is working just fine, and it's on the truck for delivery today. It feels like Christmas all over again! I just hope I don't need to worry about my MVP 2.0.

Has anyone else had tracking issues when ordering from eBay and had their package arrive without any problem? It sure would make me feel better to know someone else did.

Usually if your package doesn't say it is on the truck it won't be coming, but it is possible I guess.

USPS can be up to a week late--even on "two day priority" mail

Typically your item will show up on usps.com as "out for delivery" by mid morning if it will actually make it today.

or the mailman doesn't want to get busted ...and marks it "delivered" on Two Day Priority service at time when Porkchop was home, then freaks out cause you think it's stolen....and then the packaged is delivered the next day

Hahahaha!

I KNEW you guys would understand!

I totally know I'm not being patient, and I'm just "worrying" for no reason, but I'm so freaking thrilled to get this MVP 2. I keep telling myself that at least I'll have my new juices tonight, and I'll be able to vape something new. However, it would be so awesome to be able to vape something new for the first time from my MVP.

I did check the USPS site, and the information is the same. It's driving me crazy that it hasn't been updated since May 16. I KNOW it hasn't sat in Missouri for that long...at least...I hope it hasn't.

What device are you currently using? Ego spinners? Cig-a-likes?

I just reread your OP. It sounds like you are going off of the expected delivery date listed on ebay? Don't even look at that, it is useless. That is just a very rough date they give you to make you purchase the item.

Basically, check the actual USPS site with your tracking number and if it doesn't say "Out for Delivery" Than it isn't coming.

I have had it happen a couple of times where USPS tracking did not update anything until the package was actually out for delivery. I'm guessing it might depend on how busy they are. I've also had a couple of packages listed as out for delivery that did not wind up in the mailbox until the next day, or later in the day after the regular delivery. I found out that our street is split between 2 carriers, and sometimes things wind up in the wrong carrier's bin. All in all, though, USPS tracking and delivery has been doing better for us than UPS and FedEx.

Northern NJ native , Coastal NC now.
Congrats on the MVP , most cuss themselves after they get one because they know they should of just started with the MVP in the first place.

For anyone just starting out , do yourself a favor and just get one , forget the other stuff , you will love it . Oh and don't bother with the Bay , they are available from $35.00- $42.00 shipped to your door in three days or less from sites like 101 vape and thats with standard shipping .

The tracking is very very precise as well , i live on the N.C coast and 101 is in Cali , i ordered friday mid afternoon and had it in my hand mid day Monday, now thats fast .

I have had stuff that showed up when tracking said it was still in the sort facility on the other side of the country, a good surprise. I have also had stuff make it across the country in 2 days and then sit within an hour of my house for 4 days, hell for the 4 days.

The worst experience I had was tracking it all the way to out for delivery and going to the box only to find the note that said it required a signature and I could pick it up tomorrow.

I love buying from Amazon just for the shipping and the great tracking from UPS.
