| I have an order from a popular auction site I know that shipped from Hungary
on August 29 and hasn't arrived. The seller is a polite and asked me to
be patient, but is it normal to go over 2 months? I am nearing the time that
the auction site will no longer support the transaction.
Something that is odd to me is that my tracking app said there was information
on Royal Mail and indeed there is. Is it normal for Royal Mail to transport
a package from Hungary to the United States? When I go to parcelapp.com it says
the destination country is the UK. The last scan was September 2 leaving Hungary.

I don't suppose the USPS tracker has information on the tracking # ? Typically
it would show there if the package was destined for the US

Package can land in US and sit at the customs for a month and a half before it
is scanned in and shows up as 'reached US'. Had it happen to me.

Yes, but the tracking number still typically shows up in the USPS tracker as
e.g. "Origin Post is Preparing Shipment"

Ah, yes, absolutely. But try explaining this to a buyer, who messaged you with
'my package is not here yet' on Tuesday, after placing the order on a
late evening on the previous Friday 
Whatever is happening with the OP's package - chances are that Hungarian
post 'destined' it to the UK. In theory - should be returned or perhaps
even re-routed to US straight from the UK..
If I remember correctly once it took 3 or 4 months for a package to be returned
to me from Malta, after the buyer's local post office screwed something up
