Sean,

you are right.

That's precisely what tracking is... being able to follow and know exactly where a package is, while it is enroute, from stop to stop. Tracking is not just knowing when an item arrives to its destination.

However--Priority mail (or first class) can be tracked (following from stop to stop) if that same item is also sent Registered.

from USPS site:

o Registered Mail – The mailpiece is accounted for its entire journey and can be monitored from location to location. This service can be added to First Class and Priority Mail.

Just to clarify JR,
Delivery confirmation is NOT tracking.
The Post Office does not offer tracking except on Express Mail shipments.
There is NO tracking service available for domestic Priority Mail.

Subject: [MOPO] Anyone received Beatles "HELP" Tri-Folded One Sheet posters?

Kevin (and Rick),

Hmmm... I have not received mine either. Marci and Teri acknowledged the receipt of my PayPal payment on Jan. 31 -- so there has been time for it to get here based on what their auction description of "Estimated delivery within 5-8 business days" at their Ebay auction for this poster:

http://cgi.ebay.com/THE-BEATLES-ORIGINAL-HELP-ONE-SHEET-POSTER-TRI- FOLDED_W0QQitemZ190369070076QQ

But it's only been 7 business days as of today, so that's not necessarily cause for concern. I did email them an inquiry today -- and since I paid for insurance I would expect them to provide a tracking number. ALL post offices offer tracking number service. It costs a buck or so, but for purchases like this I would have expected an ebay Seller with over 6,000 positive feedbacks to provide a tracking number. Perhaps a bit disturbing is the fact that I don't expect an Ebay seller with over 6,000 positive feedbacks to claim their post office doesn't offer tracking. That's odd.

Rick, if you see this, it might be a good idea to send Mari a brief message asking her what's up with the shipments?

Just curious of anyone has received the Beatles "HELP" Tri-Folded One Sheet posters that were mentioned here several times. I ordered two weeks ago but still not received. And, when I asked for a tracking number they told me the post office they used didn't offer tracking..? Thought that was strange. Not making any conclusions just curious if anyone has received their posters? Hoping they show up in next couple days...
