This kinda makes sense if its 2 packages with the same tracking. Which is what
I suspect here. Either way that's hilarious.

I've had something flop around in Los Angeles once for far too long before
going overseas. It would say departed only to get scanned in L.A. again.


I thought parcels backtracking through Memphis all the time was bad. The second
I get a message about shipping, I know Memphis is involved.

A couple of years back I had a package (ordered from Europe) that, according
to tracking, travelled around the U.S. for a while. There was never any evidence
to prove that it really had though. I have my doubts about the validity of tracking
data some of the time tbh.
