I am going to share with you a little know secret that is utterly going to blow your mind!

Yes, it is mega frustrating when you ship a parcel through USPS and after it leaves the USA the tracking stops updating. This leaves your buyer terrified and you frustrated and praying it is scanned again soon. BUT, there is this absolutely incredible, 100% FREE (no account needed!) website called 17Track (17Track.net) and it is a total GOD SEND! This site will help you navigate the often tricky and confusing world of international shipping.

IMPORTANT NOTES (keep reading!)

1. 17Track works in almost all languages! So your buyer from Asia will be able to review their tracking status in their native language:

2. Also, the tracking is super specific…. Far more detailed than what you see when you check your tracking on Usps.com:

3. A parcel sitting is customs IS NOT "LOST".  The duration of time a parcels sits in Customs depends on a huge variety of factors.  PLEASE READ OUR BLOG POST, The 15 Reasons Your Parcel is Sitting in Customs to learn why many packages seem to sit forever (or literally do sit forever) because THE ISSUE COULD BE YOUR BUYERS FAULT and there might not be any way to get the package out of customs without your buyers cooperation.
