Should i worry??? Or just keep it kool?

[xbshine]

hey guys at ecf, i ordered a tank from ibtanked.com, it was departed from USPS sort facility AT bakersfield, CAlifornia on MARCH 21, 2013, AND EXPECTED DELIVERY BY MARCH 25, 2013, and today is already MARCH 26, i live in new jersey, and ibtanked is in California, so i know it mite take a while,, hmm i have nothing else to do but is to wait i guess??

whats your opinion guys??

 

[eratikmind]

I would not worry about anything until it is updated to "Out for delivery" / "Delivered".

 

[Toastedone]

Dont worry to much, the postal service here in the UK is shocking. Give it a couple of days, do you have a tracking number?

 

[xbshine]

yeh i have a tracking number,, and it hasnt been updated since last march 22, i think it got lost,,,, because i only ordered just 1 tank,, and i think its gonna come in a small package,,,, from california,,,, and its like 1000 miles away from here new jersey,,,



i kno its gonna come in a package just like this

 

[heroinesick]

I think you'll be fine. The tracking on USPS is horrible. It's just the way it is. It'll come to your house soon, or they'll update and say out for delivery.. then you can stalk your mailman.

 

[Apoxing]

Even it it says like 2 > 5 days delivery on any website i always give it atleast 2 weeks before i do anything about it.

Just wait and you will get it im 99%sure. I know that you want it really bad but hang in there

USPS has its flaws, and on the cheaper shipping options they aren't really going to update your package status at every turn. I'd say give it a few days, maybe a week, and if it doesn't show take action.

Relaaaaaaax . . . .

I was feeling the same. I called the company I ordered my AGA T2+ and was told that my tank was shipped out yesterday. When I look at USPS it shows "Electronic Shipping Info Received" as updated March 24.

 

[Cyric]

Yeah if you pick First Class shipping it's horrible on updates and takes forever. I always spend the extra couple bucks for Priority

 

[didureboot]

I did pay for priority. Still nothing.

 

[Bookworm]

It's only one day late. That's nothing as far as mail service goes. Just relax. Expected delivery is just that. It's not a guarantee.

 

[xbshine]

thanks guys,, for your opinion, yehhhh ill just keep busy so that i dont think about it, i cant do nothing about it anyways, all i half to do is the simpliest thing to do is just wait, thanks again guys

Relax, buddy.. keep vaping. USPS is far from perfect and your item is crossing the country. If it was expected yesterday and isn't here today, that's not out of the ordinary. FC has an expectation, but certainly no guarantees. It's generally as fast as Priority but there is variance. FC mail has been affected because of cutbacks - it's now not as fast as it used to be due to closing of sorting facilities, etc. If you had paid for Express and it wasn't there by a guaranteed time then you have a case.

I did ship a small FC packet to a friend in NY from WA on Friday, she got it this morning. But if she didn't get it until Friday, I would not have worried. Just simply watched tracking for the next update, figuring once it passed through sorting here it might be a couple of days before it was scanned again in the East.

/have shipped hundreds if not thousands of FC mail and Priority over the years.

I had a shipment arrive a day late and another one a day early last week. One was supposed to get her last Wed and the other last Friday and both got here on Thursday.
I wouldn't worry about it.

hey guys,, wanna share this also,, ive ordered recently from goodsensevapor.com and it was in california on the 25th of march, and today it arrived here in newjersey 27th of march,,, now, my recent order from ibtanked is also from california, until this day i track my order from ibtanked and still got no new updates, BOTH SHIPPING ARE IN FIRST CLASS MAIL SHIPPING, why is that from goodsensevapor made it here before my order from ibtanked when i ordered last week of 21 march, and still not here,???

heres the order of from ibtanked, and still not here


heres the update for the goodsensevapor.com and is here in new jersey already

 

[xbshine]

I think my order from ibtanked.com got lost

 

[ClippinWings]

no you thought that yesterday...

Everyone told you to relax and give it a couple days....

you haven't relaxed and only gave it 1 day...

You can't compare it to the other shipment... unless you think they were somehow:

• picked up by the same guy,
• in the same truck
• sorted next to each other,
• put on the same plane,
• next to each other
• taken off the plane together
• sorted next to each other,
• placed on the same truck
• and sent out for delivery by the same guy.

Both vendors might be in Calif. but that doesn't mean your packages went through the same hub. Hang in there. It's not uncommon for a package to arrive on a day other than the "expected delivery by" date. Sometimes they show up early...sometimes a day late. Only time to worry is if you see "Out for Delivery" then "Delivered" ...and you don't have the package! Otherwise...give a couple days break on the "expected" date.

I've been using First Class mostly lately, because for some reason it seems to get to me faster with the vendors I've been using. Go figure.

This exactly, in my experience the postal service is terrible about updating the status and it's not instant like UPS or Fed-Ex. Just hang in there and I bet you'll have it today or tomorrow.
