## Description

Shesha by The Courier Guy plugin for WooCommerce allows the seller to give live 
courier quotes and ship your parcels with a click of a button.

This bypasses manual shipment detail capturing and allows for waybill printing within
the website orders page.

WHY CHOOSE SHESHA by THE COURIER GUY?

The Courier Guy has built a strong reputation through strong customer relations 
and effective personal service. Today The Courier Guy is trusted, recognised and
the fastest growing courier company in South Africa.

**_DISCLAIMER_**

Parcel sizes are based on your packaging structure. The plugin will compare the 
cart’s total dimensions against “Flyer”, “Medium”, “Large” and “Custom” parcel sizes
to determine the best fit. The resulting calculation will be submitted to The Courier
Guy as using the parcel’s dimensions. By downloading and using this plugin, you 
accept that incorrect Product and Parcel Size and Weight settings may cause quotes
to be inaccurate, and The Courier Guy will not be responsible for these inaccurate
quotes.
