So it started in Shanghai, went to Anchorage, and then went back to Shanghai? And now my package status is listed as "Package Status." My package is supposed to arrive tomorrow, and I'm really hope it gets here by then. If this tracking info is correct though, that doesn't really look like it's going to happen. Is this a common thing for FedEx?

Don't forget your package crossed the International Date Line on its way from Shanghai to Anchorage, so the times may not be in exact order of occurrence. Technically, it could arrive in Anchorage before it left Shanghai.

i had ordered a guitar once from a large online mailorder co. and it shipped via UPS. this was maybe 7 years ago. the package kept going back and forth from Denver, CO UPS hub to miami, FL. it went back and forth about 20 times....not kidding. should have received it after a week and it couldn't be found. it was going back and forth for 8 weeks! when someone finally stopped the viscious loop and i went to fill out the paperwork to send it back and get a credit......man you should have seen the "box" it was in. new case was all battle-scarred. ridiculous. i'm sure you'll be fine.
