Hey guys,
I ordered all of the parts for my gaming build last Wednesday (1/14). I have received three of my five packages. Two of them left from Baldwin Park, CA (Newegg) and then went to Los Angeles. Both of them say that they left Los Angeles on Friday morning (1/16) around six in the morning (it says "Departure Scan"). I am from Louisiana, and the tracking info has not been updated since Friday morning. They are supposed to be in either tomorrow or Thursday. Anyone have any idea why the tracking info hasn't been updated in so long?
Thanks

You might have to call ups, but it's not uncommon. Sometimes the tracking data is slow to update even when a package is still moving through the system. I've had packages that said they'd been scanned with no further updates, then get an alert that they're one step away from being out for delivery. I wouldn't worry unless the status says the package has been delivered but you haven't received it yet.

Also check to see if it says 'smart post' anywhere which is a cheaper shipping option some places use and usually means fedex/ups (or whoever the carrier happens to be, they all have a version of this) brings your package to your local post office. 9 times out of 10 it's too big for usps to deliver to your mailbox and you'll have to go...

Keep in mind that they may not have been running since monday was a holiday and nothing moves on sundays - anymore I'm not even sure everything moves on saturdays either.

Thanks, man. And on one of the tracking pages, this just showed up sometime in the past few hours:

Next Scheduled Event: Tuesday,01/20/2015 by 11:59 P.M.

So I guess it is still moving. I'm just really excited and don't want to wait any longer to get all of my stuff together!

Thank you
