    Default USPS and product weights

    hi there... I have used other carts in the past and when I used USPS for my shipping I had to weigh the item and divide by 16 (as there were 16 ounces in a pound) I think it was. Is this the same for the Zen cart? How do I set the weight for the product? Thanks
