Ok so I bought my boyfriend a really cool cold weather/winter facemask from ebay. the item is coming from China.

I check the tracking every few days because I usually get my items like 10-15 day sometimes sooner (I got one item in 7 days!!!) But every time I check the tracking it says pretty much the same thing.

Now it is saying POSTING. What the heck is posting and why the crap does my package say it is processing, then processed, then processing, then processed but it is still where it was 17 days ago! I am so confused. and I even an extra few dollars to make sure this was here between the 19th and 31st of December. Now I am afraid that I won't get it on time or I just wont get it at all! What should I do. I have contacted the ebay seller but since they are in China and probably using a translating computer I am afraid they don't understand what I am really trying to say or I don't understand what they are really trying to say. Can anyone give me information on how I can better figure out what is going on with my package!?!?!?! THANK YOU!!! I hope everyone get's their packages soon or at least when they are suppose to arrive!!
