Yes. I want to love it... yet I hate it, because it seems to never be updated correctly. Only 1 vape related package that tracked properly that I've received was from MBV. Effects of sequestration? What's your thoughts?

I bleeping hate it.
Waiting on a package I ordered on the 1st. Didn't get shipped till late on the 2nd. Tracking on the 3rd says it left the sorting facility... Sure, the 4th was a holiday, and they were probably closed on the weekend, but today is the 8th, and where the bleep is my package? ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

If it is an effect of sequestration then what explains the fact it has always been a problem even before most Americans knew the word "sequestration".
Sounds like an "Outside" topic.

The post office is totally funded by postage charges, so sequestration has no effect on it. One of the main problems is a law from the Bush era that basically says that they have to set aside enough money for 75 years worth of employee benefits within a 10 year span. This is really starting to bankrupt the USPS. It is still miles ahead of UPS and Fedex, I count myself lucky if I get a package from them in one piece.
To be fair, the USPS does a wonderful job the vast majority of the time. Yeah, I know it's frustrating to be waiting for something and not know where it is but we never seem to hear stories about all the times the post office does a great job.
That's because rarely does someone come to the internet to rave about something. They generally wait until they're upset by something then furiously type their complaint.
The quality of USPS "tracking" is dependent upon manual scanning of the barcode during every step along the way .. in many cases, the vendor has a sub-quality label printed where the barcode is not easily readable by the scanner and thus, in order for it to be in the system, the number must be input manually which most won't do because of efficiency requirements ..
As well, the original concept of what we now commonly refer to as tracking, was "Delivery Confirmation" .. it was never intended to be a real tracking system ..
The good news is, based on the sheer number of USPS deliveries in a year, they do an incredibly good job ..

Well, I have to give my mail carrier a kudos today - he had to deliver 9 vapemails all the way to my door from the comfort of his mail truck and he wasn't even very much ticked off about it.
Should get to know your mail carrier and see if they smoke... then order up a cheap ego kit and give it to them for Christmas, or their birthday if you know them well enough! Short of that... maybe a gift card for being a pro.
Oh... and still nothing yet 
Well, maybe the yellow package slip fairy will visit my PO box tonight, and I'll have something to be happily vaping on tomorrow. Bets on whether my RSST or the dripper/T4's will show up?
My money is on the RSST... since it won't do me any good on my egos, and the VAMO is in dead last place right now, so the RSST would be most inconvenient LOL.

The RSST showed up today, no VAMO to use it on either LOL. And, it is smaller than I thought it was! On a different, yet similar note, the ecig try me condom covers are bigger than I expected....
