Hi,

I found a way to gather tracking numbers, based on the reference number used when shipment was processed. This number seems the same for all RPi already delivered, as far as I can see.

Instructions (I'm not sure if you need to create an account on the UPS site for this):


On the UPS site, hover mouse on "Tracking" (top menu), then click on "Track shipments". On the left side will appear a box to enter tracking numbers ("Track by number"). You cannot use that without tracking number, of course.


Instead, select "Track by reference". New options will be shown, fill these:

- Shipment type: Package (the default option)
- Shipment Reference: GB1:05
- Shipment Date Rage: use some reasonable range here, e.g. 23/07 to 23/08 (some RPi's were shipped on different dates)

- Destination Country: 
					[your country]

leave other fields at the default. Click on "track". You should get a list of tracking numbers destined to your country, which are most likely RPis.

It is not a perfect solution, but may help finding yours.



Good luck!

PS: mine was successfully delivered to Manaus/Brazil this week with the absurd taxes paid.
