scratchy Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I placed an order with Hookah-Shisha on the 9th October and by the 12th, they still haven't shipped. Contacted them and they said I need to verify my card first. Did that on the 13th and got a mail saying my order shipped. Now when I go to usps's site to track my order, I get a e-mail notification of parcel received and nothing else. Does it take them more than 3 days to update tracking info or has H-S still not shipped my order off to them? I'm getting real worried here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiveSpeedF150 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I've seen orders arrive before the online tracking info even registers shipped. I wouldn't worry just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fineout Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 usps tracking is pretty weak, ive had tons of things through them and that exact things happened to me probably 75% of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting real worried hereweird, ive never had to verify my card with them i just enter the info and it went thru, with ups for me it usually doesnt update until it leaves there warehouse..then it just shows me on which day it will be dilivered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cxc5120 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Ive never had problems with usps. I usually would select them over ups or fedex for this exact reason. Maybe you should contact hookah-shisha? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I thought H-S only shipped UPS. USPS tracking is a joke, seriously. I have gotten stuff delivered before they updated the status from "Billing Information Received" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 usps actually just screwed me over 3 weeks ago..i ordered a few things from best buy and when i checked tracking it shows that they attempted to make a delivery and no one was home to sign for it and they left a notice..they never attempted anything and didnt leave any noticed..so the next day i checked the tracking again and it showed it was delivered to me..lol im like wtf is going on here..i just went in to talk to the manager and they had my items there in the office..it was a new guy on the route my usual was on vacation..i always get screwed when i get new guys on my route..

contristo Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 hookah-shisha tends to take 2-3 days to process my order. the only reason i still buy somewhat regularly from them is because they offer golden 33mm quicklights and john doesn't. they have great products and support, but the speed of their shipping definitely needs work (at least in comparison to other hookah vendors where anything past 24 hrs is alarming) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Interested to hear the actual postmark date! H-S isn't the speediest shipping lot in the world. Having 2-4 days between order and ship is par for the course with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcane Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 unless its actual tracking numbers and not the DC number, i'll never believe what USPS says about where my order is...i've had it say, "Package is Scheduled for Pick Up" to "Delivered"...what the hell happened to everything in between?

Pretender85 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I hear they fail pretty hard at their tracking system..My glass bowl from mnhookah shipped out last friday, and it hasn't even shown up on their tracking page yet..knowing them, it'll show up today or monday as a complete surprise lol..as tarik finally emailed me back saying he dropped it off.

gtm2007 Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 I've ordered from H-S twice now. Both times, USPS had no tracking information at all, other than billing recieved. Got both shipments roughly 4-5 days after I purchased them. Just thought I'd throw that in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scratchy Posted October 29, 2009 Author Share Posted October 29, 2009 "we can't control USPS"Figured as much.Bad form H-S, real bad.The least you could do is phone them and ask them to track it manually, but no, you have no control over them.Pssshhh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scratchy Posted October 29, 2009 Author Share Posted October 29, 2009 Sadly, it all goes through NAMpost, whom I speak to every day.They reckon I should track the parcel by phoning USPS, but h-s refuse to do so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king_lunchb0x Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 hrmm well u could file a claim, or see if h-s.com will ship new order...but most of the time they wont ship until at least 30days+ read the agreement on returns and shipping info. where do you live?

fillup Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 yea, I always order from ups because of their service. USPS has just too wide of a client base that causes them to have really bad service (try to ship a package in a big city and see how long you wait in line for) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
