Where is my Mac mini

I ordered a Mac mini on the 18 of December 2020. And today is the 8 of January 2021 I looked at the tracking app and it reads it was picked up for shipping but today it is telling me it still sitting in China. I ordered it from the Philippines

Depending how an item is getting shipped and from where,

sometimes "picked up for shipping" can mean different things.


Sometimes it is generated immediately when the shipping ticket

is recorded/issued from the service provider but may still be awaiting

loading before actual transit.


Sometimes it means it is actually on the transport container but that container

has yet to be picked up by the transport method.


Depending on the means of transport with consideration for customs clearing

and also restrictions and extra precautions due to the pandemic it could be

simply slow in transit.


You have a tracking number and the company that assigned that tracking number,

contact them to find out what is actually going on.
