ozpost shipping module

[RodG]

Can someone please tell me why I am not getting the correct parcel rate amount for this item

Q1. What *should* the correct price be?
Q2. Where are you sending the parcel too?

I am unsure of the dimensions for what a 3kg satchel should be etc...

This can be found on the Australia Post website (If I knew them offhand I'd be telling you).

For what it is worth though, the item that you have linked to is going to be too large for a satchel .. in fact the size/weight dimensions are such that this item is subject to the cubing rules.

The shopping cart will show the following:



I should be getting $16.85 BEFORE the handling amount.

Not trying to be difficult, but my tests indicate that this item should cost $19.85 to Sydney 2000 (plus handling). I guess your destination postcode was different than the one I used.

It doesn't show up as $22 for Express Post when I had that option set in Admin either.

Again, where did you determine how much this item should cost?
What postcode are you using for testing?

I'd help if I could, but my (limited) test doesn't match any of the data that you have provided .. I also tried using destination postcode 3000, and gives me a quote of $16.45 *including $1.00 handling).

So, if you could provide any additional info so that we are both using the same data for testing I may be able to give you a more definitive response.

Also, for sanity sake, it is best to assume that the ozpost module is providing correct quotes, and if you find these don't match what you expect then it is probably your expectations that are wrong (as a result of not using identical data for comparison purposes?)

Cheers
Rod.

ps. Australia Post are increasing their rates as of 4/4/11 .. ozpost.net will be quoting these new rates sometime this coming weekend.
