    Default New UK postal charges

    Very shortly, Royal Mail are going to start charging both by weight and dimensions. Anyone got any suggestions as to how to cater for this when selling a variety of products of differing weights and sizes?

    The Canada Post module currently offers dimensional support. You could use it as a basis for building a new module...

    As a result of our earlier exchange of posts, it's on my to do list to track down this module, translate it and then see how applicable it is to the UK situation and what tailoring would be needed.

    So far, I have got as far as ... putting it on my to do list. If you were to grab the module and do a rough translation (I can go back to the original if I need more precision), that would greatly improve the chances of me finding the time to finish this off and, as Ryk says, make you rather popular.

    You and me both sir, I havent had the chance to look into it yet properly but I know both the sagawa and yamato modules have this in and I have already translated it all.
    Theres not a great deal of text in there to translate really.
