Chinese tracking.

[inhawaii]

You know how USPS tracking shows every stop/status of a package?

I recently bought something shipped from China.  The tracking only shows "shipped" and no other info at all.  It's been several days.  Is that just how China tracking is?

If it's an LX#######CN type number, you probably won't see anything until it arrives in the US.

China sellers are known for uploading fake tracking numbers. Check and see if the tracking numbers are actually the eBay item numbers.

It might just say shipped until you get it. It takes a month or two to get stuff from china, unless it was 20 dollars or more then it seems like you get it in three weeks or less. 

The tracking numbers on most of them are worthles.

You can go to China post and see if it tracks.

There are also regional postal service private or public which your seller could be using,depends on where they are.

Some do not track or just track when it arrives at the postal facility,you should ask the seller.think back in the old days,who would be tracking his shipment every step of the way?
