Anybody know what this means? USPS related.

I've been looking for a guide to arrive at my house from an Ebay seller for a while now. Back on Nov. 11th I got a shipping notice through paypal with a link to the tracking info on USPS's website. This is the info there:

Track & Confirm

[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=-1]Current Status[/size][/font]
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=-1]
You entered #### #### #### #### #### ##

The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper or shipping partner on October 11, 2005 to expect your package for mailing. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later.

[/size][/font] I believe that this is being shipped by media mail.

Does this message mean that USPS never received the package, or will it not update until it is delivered?

It means that it's been mailed and they're not going to tell you where it is until you get it in the mail.

Probably means thet used paypal to ship it.

Cool, I was thinking that it was still in the seller's posession, which would not be cool.

yep I have bought many things from ebay that do that. It will say what the OP posted and then it shows up a week before usps updates that info.
