Actually, you get a track number from UPS as soon as billing info is recvd from shipper b4 UPS even picks up the package. Thats the way its always worked for me. Just UPS gets the info scanned in their own good and decided time, but yes usually after 8:00 to see any change, but I got my track number from UPS not even an hour after I ordered, but it was in the afternoon when I placed it at pillzone...
