USPS Tracking system down?

[varebelrose]

I was just double checking some packages sent this morning (8 hours ago) and noticed no tracking update, not even the initial acceptance scan. (I do have reciepts in hand). I then checked the USPS tracking site and when the numbers are entered, I get a message that USPS tracking is experiencing technical difficulties and is apparently not working. Whatever is going on, I hope eBay is aware and will not penalize sellers.

ymmv.

Given that eBay has a minimum of 20 days to update their systems before you are evaluated I don't see any potential for problems.

Yes it's down I have a remorse return coming back and have 2 days after tracked back to issue the refund , I haven't been able to track it as I also get the red system down message.

I have the store on Vacation  as I will have to be away due to medical issues for a few days & so wished I would have this back to inspect and refund before I have to leave.

Hopefully it will be up & running soon, I suspect it will 

And as jim posted you should be just fine with the tracking kicking in before the 20th review

Temporary glitch.  It has happened before.  I wouldn't worry about it.
