Vendors: Shipping from other locations

So in my scenario, I work with a number of vendors. The vendors simply contract with me to sell from my eStore. I do not warehouse items, I am simply the front end for their products. Once an order is placed, the order is verified, forwarded to the vendor and the vendor ships the products. These vendors are in other states.

Right now as the shipping module sits, shipping is based from MY location TO the customer and not FROM the vendor's location. What is the best way to configure shipping when the items are shipped from another location in another state?

You can only ship from one location with a stock Zencart installation. You might search the web for ceon advanced shipping

Many thanks I'll look into that module.
