USPS Shipping calculator problems

iamkingdude:

I still cannot get the API to display First Class Rates even though the option is available (and selected) in the Module Admin. Perhaps this is just part of the whole API problem reported in this thread?
Two questions:

  1. Did you Uninstall and Re-Install the module by clicking on the appropriate buttons in the ZC admin area?
  2. If you try an online quote for the same shipping criteria by using the USPS website directly, does it give a First Class option? What quotes does it give you?

Re: USPS Shipping calculator problems

I have the same error on both the websites I have installed the fix on. The parcel post rate comes up to MORE than what the Priority Mail rate is... and when I check the USPS website... all the priority & express rates are correct, but the parcel post is not correct.

Yes... I uninstalled the "old" mod and reinstalled the new...

Any help?? One of the websites is at http://jeunepeau.com

Re: USPS Shipping calculator problems

Check the Machinable setting for your site:

All Packages are Machinable
Are all products shipped machinable based on C700 Package Services 2.0 Nonmachinable PARCEL POST USPS Rules and Regulations?

Note: Nonmachinable packages will usually result in a higher Parcel Post Rate Charge.

Packages 35lbs or more, or less than 6 ounces (.375), will be overridden and set to False
