    red flag Australia Post - weights

    Hi all,

    I am having trouble with the weighing system in V1.3.9b. When estimating the postage costs at Aust Post real rates the weight says 1.591kg (which is correct for this order) but when I try different addresses in different Aust Post rates areas it seems to be weighing in at a total of 5-6kg rather than around 2kg inclusive of box and packaging.

    For the life of my I cannot see why this is happening, I did change the box size in the shipping module to reflect the box we are sending.

    Need to get this right as I have had to take the website offline until I can resolve it.

    Any help appreciated

    Martyn
