Oh great lol just what a eBay seller wants to see so close to Christmas on a tracking number...guess this means they shipped it to the wrong postal hub and are re-routing it back to where it was suppose to go. Anyone else having oh so joyful shipping problems? Also Priority is taking up to 5 days now....first class up to 10 days

Had that happen about to me on one about a year or so ago. Better to know than not know.

Sorry to give some bad news but.....
last week unloading a trailer of mail which had just cleared Canada Customs, trailer originated in USA, destination Canada. Half of the trailer was unloaded, no problem. The whole back half of the trailer was cages of priority mail. Problem... all of the mail was for the USA.... whoops I guess somebody loaded the wrong trailer. So all these cages have to be sent back to Canada Customs, reprossed and back to USA.
On Monday, trailer clears Canada Customs, trailer originated in USA, destination Canada. Whole trailer, mail destination Europe & UK. Not one piece of mail for Canada. Back to customs, meanwhile there is now a line up of 45 trailers of mail from the USA waiting to clear customs.........wonder how much of it is really going to be for Canada.
One of the reasons that customs can't refuse it as they are to inspect the contents of the mail, not the postal address. I don't believe that they can refuse trailers of mail because they believe it was addressed wrong. This applies to customs on both sides of the border.
I know we've also done some "slip ups" with our own provincial mail.
Sorry, but we are getting more of your mail than we really should.
