The USPS is another matter. I've never seen the U.S. Post Office tracking site update an order. When they first get the package, their site will acknowledge that they have received the item, and after that, there are no more updates until the package eventually arrives at my doorstep.

Dagnabbit! I guess I did manage to get a complaint in after all!
USPS tracking is not tracking. At best it might be able to pass as a confirmation system. But I wouldn't even go that far.
