I always face a similar problem between Canada and the US.

Understandably, USPS serves the US and CanadaPost serves Canada.
They each can't track or control mail once it switches carriers.

In recent years, CanadaPost and the USPS have established a better system,
and many parcels are now tracked on both sides.
Limited info is available, but I can now maintain a better watch on deliveries.

Shipping from Poland is going to involve more barriers, more carriers, air transport and international customs.
More delays.

I'd say the only way to properly track a parcel, is use only one carrier.
In other words a "courier" or parcel delivery service like FedEx, UPS, Purolater, DHL, etc

This is also one reason I like Amazon shipping. The give real good tracking and delivery details for their own shipments.


Your parcel is completely invisible (to you) until it gets picked up by USPS...and then its just 'another parcel'.
It will have no special attention, like 'tracking'.
So you'll not know anything until its delivered.

I'd say the biggest delay it will face is the time it spends going through customs.
Be patient.

Early January purchase, means only about 4 weeks...not really that bad.
I'd say you still need wait up to 2 more weeks before you panic.
China and Hong Kong takes 8-10 weeks surface delivery.
