1. I suspect you forgot to look at the size limit for a parcel to USA:
Standard 2: The maximum length is 1.05 meters. The length + circumference should be 2 meters or less.

2. I suspect your parcel with measurement of 70*50*50cm
70cm length
50cm depth
50cm height

So length 70cm + circumference = 2Xdepth + 2Xheight = 270cm = 2.7m

3. Possibly the parcel could still be sent to USA but you will have to pay an extra for oversize parcel.

4. You might want to read this about tracking number CP:
format 2: the number starts with “CP” and ends with “CN”, i.e. CP123456789CN
This is China Post registered surface mail. Normally it is much slower than airmail and might take up to 6 months to arrive.

5. The CP number are register parcel and can be track in USA by USPS.

Hope this help.

1. Your best bet would be SAL = Surface to Air Lift. It means your parcel will fly out of China and not possibly take a ship out of China. It will still be a CP number so it can be track in USA by USPS.

2. This might help you:

What are the stand formats of China Post tracking number? How to distinguish them?

Hope this help.

1. It could be possibly China Post Ordinary Small Packet Plus. This type of parcel can be track only in China and has limited tracking. Can be deliver to you within 30 to 60 days. Will be deliver to you by your national Post Office just like a normal letter.

2. Or it could also be a Register Airmail Parcel can be deliver between 2 to 8 weeks but not every country are tracking those type of parcel by the Country National Post Office.

Hope this help.
