Nah, Amazon just disables tracking altogether as soon as it's running late.
People might think you're joking, but they literally just did that to me last month.
Happened to me yesterday. One day shipping of course. I was super excited for it, now it's supposed to arrive between 3:30 and 7:30, lame. I guess it's good I finally got an update.
Edit: Now 4:15 to 8:15, of course.
Had a unicorn moment a while back. Ordered an SSD and for whatever reason the seller didn't use detailed tracking but only the basic "has been delivered" one. Amazon status turns from "Expected today" to "running late", thing is: the package was there (letter sized, hence no accurate tracking info... on a 100€ package) tracking status did NOT update so I just got the money refunded, while still getting the ssd. I was tempted to try my luck again but ultimately decided not to.
Welp, that'll teach the seller not to use the cheap shipping.
