Thanks guys, I have no doubt with TNT Express postal, it's the dealer I am more concerned...

And some update... Today I checked my email and Airsoft Panda sent me a mail, telling me my parcel will be picked up tonight (this would be Taiwan time, same timezone as Hong Kong), below is the content:

Dear xxx,

Good afternoon! The TNT express would pick up your order at 7:00 pm tonight =)

And here is the track number : GD7xxxxxxxxWW

you would be able to track the parcel by typing in the track number at the top of the right hand corner at the following link when the parcel is picked up :

Have a nice day!

Best regards,
xxx

Out of curiosity I copied the tracking number and tracked it, and the weird thing... the tracking number is someone else's, dated back March 4th (and delivered 8th) of this year (2010). So I phoned Airsoft Panda and talked with the staff and she said that "the tracking number would be the same, but the status will be replaced with my order, with the same tracking number but a different reference number", (which I asked on the phone for and she gave. but the one she read me is five digits, while on the TNT tracking site the previous person's reference number is 15 digits long). I didn't know what else to ask, so I said thank you and hung up. But I have a few curiosities:

1. Is it possible that I have the exact tracking number as someone else who used the postal service, five months ago? I postal companies always provide new tracking numbers, so the previous ones can be put on file?

2. I always thought a tracking number is given AFTER the postal service shipped the item out, and not like how Airsoft Panda said on the phone: "this is your tracking number, the parcel would then be picked up by TNT around 7:00pm tonight and the track number updated." Huh??

Can someone with experience buying from overseas or TNT Express tell me what's going on? The lady from Airsoft Panda told me to check back the TNT site after 4 hours (8:00pm here in Taiwan) for updated status. I will post back with updates, but any feedback would be appreciated, thank you.
