I am never using ECMS again.
I ordered some items off Mercari as always and chose ECMS shipping this time around. I was out of town and lately USPS has been fucking with me and not delivering my packages, so I didn’t want to risk the package not being delivered. Or even worse, the package being stolen. Plus, it was a little cheaper so I thought saving money would be great too.
I should have just let it sit in the warehouse a bit longer. It’s been in LAX for a week and no movement. If it was EMS or Buyee Air, it would be here already. ECMS is trash.
I am never using ECMS again.
EDIT: Coming back later to provide more details. Based on this experience, it seems that there are two different places to check on the status of your package, and they tell conflicting information.
ECMS has their own portal that tells me one story:
At some point, ECMS spits out a 30 digit number that’s a USPS tracking number in disguise. Plug that into USPS portal and you get a different story:
So if you want to have no idea where your package is, choose ECMS!
And the irony is…I’m still stuck with USPS!
