The individual packages don't get separately scanned until later at the sort facility where they, you know, sort things based on destination.

It is typical with cards from Greg Morris that there is 3-5 days between when the actual shipment is processed by GMC and when it gets it's first individual scan inside the USPS network. The history will often look like some variation of this:

Attachment 550639



To blame this on the seller doesn't make sense. It is, as i believe Rich K said earlier, an artifact of the USPS process and the fact that GMC is located in the second largest city in the nation.

Again, not naming the seller, but when a shipment requires multiple packages and only a single label is created the next business day (which appears on the next day's scan form) with the remaining labels being created several days later and subsequently all packages hit the USPS sort center at the same time, then that is on the seller, not on the USPS.
