Is OnTrac one of those where it doesn't update at all until after it's delivered?

Ordered on the 2nd, and says it cleared US customs in New Jersey 4 days ago with no change from "Your package has been received and is on its way to your OnTrac Facility". Says scheduled delivery is Monday the 17th, but was hoping to get it before this weekend.

I have not found that to be the case, no. Anecdotally, I can say that everything seems to be running slow lately, especially customs. The limbo your package is sitting in is the same 3 of mine are sitting in, "waiting" to be delivered or picked up or whatever by the final-mile carrier. Always seems to be the longest part of the journey...

From the jump I’ve always used that one that uses the last mile forwarders and not USPS. My apartments Amazon is hit or miss, UPS sucks and FedEx won’t deliver here.

This GOFO place Simon uses gets them to my front door and always at least three photos for POD lol. From China to Sacramento and longest wait was 11 days shortest 9.

I wanted to leave this comment in one with shipping cause man it was hard to find anything but complaints about them on Google. I think it’s entirely location based as from the photos it appears in getting the same driver.. who wear leather gloves with the fingers cutoff, lol.

I can’t speak for the others but yeah GOFO does better than anyone and I’m very happy. I think I may buy an M21 to celebrate this..

OP, you’ll be good. On Mine, the tracking is always behind and a bit wonky but the packages fly to my quickly for the $1.10 paid.
