    customer issue Can I allow checkout, but let customer choose "Shipping Cost TBD"?

    My business is commercial coffee brewers and related beverage equipment. I do not stock any equipment as I depend on the manufactures of the equipment to ship for me.
    Within the U.S. I ship items for free so I have free shipping set up for the U.S. zone. I have two zones set up, U.S. and Not U.S. This was done through an SQL mod I found on this forum.

    During checkout if the customers address is in the U.S. then they can proceed through the checkout process.
    If it is an international customer and they select their respective country in the address field the warning comes up that we are not shipping to your region at this time. Since I do not stock equipment, I depend on the manufacturer to give me a quote each time for international shipping. Most of the items I sell go through a freight forwarder so setting up the UPS module will not really help.

    Ideally when I have an international customer, I would like them to register, add a product, enter the international address and then have a page come up that says we will return your inquiry by e-mail with a total price including shipping within 1-2 business days.
    Is there a mod already out there that will allow me to do this or will one have to be created? Maybe there is a work around to this issue that I don't know about.
