This item ships via eBay Standard Envelope for Trading Cards, Stamps, Postcards & Coins.

Occasionally, eBay standard envelope shipments may not track all the way through delivery.

eBay standard envelopes are handled by the USPS and treated as first class letters rather than parcels. The barcode on the label is different from standard USPS tracking. Not all envelopes are scanned at pick up, acceptance at the post office or at facilities along the way.  When the barcode is scanned, however, that is only by sorting machines at processing centers or bulk deliveries to nearby relay boxes and not by the carrier.
