[QUOTE="dtlinderman, post: 747731, member: 1245"] As someone that works in distribution, this can be normal, especially for smaller e-commerce shops. When they receive your order, they shipper will go ahead and "route" your order through UPS, which generates a label for the shipper to use to go pick the product (process is called pick to label). If it takes the shipper 2 days to actually fulfill your order (pick and pack) then your tracking number in UPS shows label created that whole time. It will only update once the box is actually loaded on a UPS truck. Also, some shippers don't have UPS pickups every day, so it may wait on the next UPS truck to pick it up. This usually isn't an issue at larger e-commerce providers (think Target or Home Depot) because they're trying to batch pick and push routing to the very last second so they can ship it as cheap as possible and still meet your deliver by date. They also have UPS pickups every 2 hours or so [/QUOTE]
