What does this mean? Bloody Yodel tracking!!

[AintNobodyHereButUsChickens]

Ordered an item off eBay and my heart sunk when I saw Yodel was the courier. The tracking currently says this

"A label has been created but the item has not been collected and scanned into the Caribou network yet."

What exactly does this mean? This was 12th March and nothing has changed since this 'update' when I was told it was dispatched

It means the barcode for the label exists but hasn't been scanned yet.

I would assume.

I think it's yet to leave the place it's coming from.

When did the seller have it advertised to arrive by?

@Crunchymum it was supposed to be here by the 17th!

It means that the seller has created and printed off a label but it hasn't been collected by the courier yet.

I just want my washing line props
