Something is wrong in this setup. How can an item be shipped for free but not be shipped anywhere? What type of product is this? It sounds like it might be a virtual product which means that the product was not setup correctly regardless the product type.

Virtual product don't ship. Secondly the product needs to actually be set as a virtual product which is yes, virtual and no, normal shipping rules.

This should properly "set flags" that the purchase is not being shipped and the company should handle that appropriately.

Yup. With a sql statement entered through the tools->install sql patches area as provided below. Make a backup of the store's database before executing.

UPDATE products SET product_is_always_free_shipping = 0 WHERE product_is_virtual = 1 AND product_is_always_free_shipping = 1;
