This is the date fed ex says it entered their system, too. Oddly, it says 1 package of 1 at 1.4 lb, then in another place (on the fed ex tracking website) it says 1 package, 6.6 lb. Neither of those is heavy enough to have my order and reasonable packaging... We shall see.
Hobby king tracking from Hong Kong is much worse, at least in implementation. The website is flaky (sql errors), the automated population of fields doesn't work at all (have to copy and paste the tracking number from HK's site), and so on. They use some sort of universal tracking website that has their own tracking numbers and doesn't reveal the carrier's tracking number. Or possibly the eventual carrier hasn't even gotten the package yet, and this system is the inventory system of a drop shipper? It claims to have been delivered to the carrier 12-15-12, received by the carrier 12-16-12, and claims to be being processed by the sort facility as of 12-17-12.
