Last week I bought a shirt off ebay, the item was listed as free shipping with Canada post.

However my online tracking hasnt really been updated for the past 3 days.
It shipped on the 25th, it says "item processed at postal facility" in Montreal.

I called Canada post and they said its not unusual for no updates to be made...
WTF? Isnt that the whole point of "tracking"?
So I know where my item is?

Anyway, is it actually normal for there to be no udpates for 3 days? or are they just bs'ing me? I dont shop online often so...
