[Yo ssi]

I'm tracking an order and the latest says this, there's been no movement since 2/5. Is this normal?

From aliexpress? Yes.

From aliexpress? Yes.

I have an order that has no movement since December

[az]

yes,
the reason the shipping is so cheep is that its subsidized by the Chinese government (free for small packages) ,
the way i understand it is that there is a big "box" and when its full they send it out to the next stop,
that's why you get it somewhere between 2 weeks and 3 months

I found this place https://track-chinapost.com/?page_id=242/china-post-forum-group1/china-post-discussion-forum14.0

Which seems to have a good response rate. I have no idea if "chinapostvolunteer" is actually affiliated with china post but at lease he/she is actually someone to talk to.

The response I got was:

"...shows the parcel was sent it to airline on Feb 5,2021. No update since then. Normally no news is good news which means the parcel has finally passed safety scan. It is waiting for flight space to USA.

Waiting time will take 2 to 6 weeks, you will see next update after parcel arrives USA."
