ozpost shipping module

However, it appears that the estimated rates are a tad off.

Please provide an example.

Generally speaking the rates provided will be accurate or not provided at all. Where there is a discrepancy between what the user expects and what the module provides it is the user that has it wrong.

I'm reasonably certain that the setup has been done correctly as I've copied all the old setting into the new one.

Not an easy task considering V2 has a lot more settings than V1 :-)

Also, take careful note of the way the handling charges are defined, as some of them are applied differently between the versions.

But certain postcodes are coming back with values a little bit off (<$1) away from their real values.

Again, I need specific examples.

Have the postal rates changed?

Yes, they have changed since V1.x..x but it shouldn't make any difference in regards to accuracy because the quotes are obtained in real time so you should always get the most up to date rates.

It was fine before I upgraded...

That's what they all say. Seriously, I've now lost count of the number of people that are still using the obsolete 'AustPost' module that hasn't been able to produce a valid quote for well over a year now, that have pretty much insisted it was fine until recently.

Also, 3kg express satchel is not showing up, but 3kg satchel is coming up fine. Both have been enabled. That's really strange since they'd use the same parcel weight and dimensions...

I've no explanation why it doesn't show for you.
