International Tracking Stopped Updating

[wattcarnes1]

I've shipped 3 separate package overseas (one to Canada and two to Australia) recently.  The tracking works fine locally but once it departs here the next and last update has been "In transit to next facility."  In the past, the next facility is usually an International Sorting Facility in Chicago.  It's been over a month for the first package and no updates.  Anyone else having problems with int'l tracking updates?

What shipping service did you use?

I just shipped a couple of packages USPS first class international to Denmark and they arrived at the international distribution center on April 15 but haven't moved from there yet. It's only been 3 days though and USPS is experiencing a lot of delays so I'll give them more time.

My last package to Canada was shipped on April 3 and delivered on April 14. Typically that journey would take about 7 days. So far my international packages have been moving slower, but still getting there.

I don't want to scare you - but the last package I had that stopped updating when it hit the international sort center in Chicago ended up getting seized by Homeland Security. Looking at the stuff you have sold in the past a overzealous agent may have deemed it something that needed a license to export.

It was not a pleasant experience and involved a visit from several agents. I don't ship anything remotely like what you show as sold international anymore.

All 3 packages were shipped via USPS.  Two were First Class Int'l and one Priority Mail Int'l.  In each case, tracking shows the package being accepted at my local Post Office, arriving and departing the regional processing center and finally the "In transit to next facility" update.  Then, NOTHING.
