I mailed a package but there is no tracking

If you mailed a package without tracking, it may have been sent using a service that does not include tracking by default, such as First-Class Mail for certain items. Unfortunately, without a tracking number, we cannot provide information about the package’s status. In the future, consider selecting a shipping option that includes tracking for better visibility on your package's journey.

My package has been in the package acceptance pending for 5 days. Why is it taking so long?

Delays in package acceptance can be due to various factors, including high shipping volumes, staffing issues, or potential customs holds for international shipments. In some instances, packages may be pending acceptance if they are awaiting scanning or processing at a facility. We recommend checking the tracking status regularly for updates.
