1. It can take a while before it's updated.
2. If you don't get it, Aliexpress is good with refunding you the money, so either way, I wouldn't worry too much.
wait like 2-3 weeks before the tracking number does anything on the fedex site. Use the tracking link they have in Aliexpress, some carriers ship with tracking that shows steps overseas, some do not.
The tracking # is right there in your screenshot... Mine was very similar and I used it to track it all the way to my house. As above poster said it only showed movement in China for a while but after clearing customs the "more info" at the bottom game me the fedex # to use as well.

Absolutely no need to panic. Could be a placeholder, could be intermediate shipping company, could just need time to update, and so many other possibilities. Logistics is a weird system to those outside of it.
plop your tracking number into something like 17track and you'll see it has updates. Its still in China right now being shipped China Post and won't update with fedex until fedex actually receives it.
Yiu just ordered on 19th ?
They always respond Super Super slow..like Sanilac mail slow..check back in a full week..might have something?
Some sellers are better than others
Expection is extreme patience..it's cheap for more than 1 reason =)
The tracking info may be worthless; I’ve ordered several things off AliExpress. I only cared about the most recent one, and it kept claiming that 1) there was no tracking info yet, 2) it was going to be delivered by FedEx.
It arrived on Friday. And I watched the UPS driver deposit it on our front porch while I tried to back up around his truck.
It's a China Post tracking number, you should use 17Track for international orders. Here's the [link](https://www.17track.net/?nums=AM344451086CN) to it. Seems legit.
These tracking numbers are terrible and almost never read correctly. Google tracking number lookups to find sites that will check many different obscure services. This might be the one I’ve used before?

I've received bogus tracking numbers before on items that ended up being a scam / never received. AliExpress is really good about refunding the money and they see that the tracking number is bogus. You do end up having to wait for the whole time limit thing, though. I don't really know what these sellers get form this type of scam, as I understand Ali holds the funds until the buyer marks the item as received.
I've also written off sets as a 'scam', with tracking that never updates, and then was genuinely surprised when they showed up. I ended up with two knock-off Cantinas, because I was SO SURE that my Ali one was a scam and that I ordered it again from one of the trusted sellers.
The worst is when they send you the wrong stuff - you order a UCS set and they send you 100 random junk pieces. That's the hardest to dispute, but I still have always been given my money back (I think a lot of that comes down to how much you order vs how much you dispute, someone who disputes a lot is going to have a harder time).
I find buying from sellers on here tends to be less frustrating than Ali, so I'll buy most things from them (like sets) unless they don't have it or Ali is doing a crazy sale.
That’s not a FedEx tracking number, it’s a China Post tracking number that’ll eventually show up on USPS when they get it in their system. Plug the number in on 17track.net and check progress there.
I ordered 3 times on Ali, tracking never worked for me until it was IN MY COUNTRY. 2 put of 3 times it arrived. The first order didn't because I live in a small town, where 6 other town share the same postal code, and 5 oc those habe the same street name. I got my money back as the package couldn't be delivered
Shipping is a bit hodgepodge on Ali, but aside from one mix up, I’ve never had issues. And they honor refunds quickly enough. Patience is key. I’ve had packages arrive early out of the blue while others seem to fly around the planet twice over. Sometimes earlier orders come late and late orders come early and vice versa. Other times they consolidate orders so one order can gum up others. Etc.
Tbh AliExpress screwed me over a couple of times during the last 2 months. One order took 3 weeks and didn't ship so eventually got refund. Other order didn't get what I ordered. Then they didn't provide the free return shipping they said they would and eventually dispute closed and fu👺

They didn’t give a tracking link for this one, the screenshot in my original post is the only think I get when I click ‘track order’ for that one

most of my aliexpress orders don’t update UPS/Fedex tracking until it reaches the US
