 * I have wholesale lots of some items so I was testing the Bundle Rates plugin 
   and discovered that one of my other options – USPS Priority Mail – is looking
   off.
 * All of these items are 1 lb and shipping in the same size package. I add one 
   to the cart and get back $6.02, add a second item get back $8.98, add a 3rd item
   and get back a whopping $32.87.
 * Add a 4th item and the $$ remain unchanged. What is happening here – each 1 lb
   incremental increase in weight should have a modest increase in but not a huge
   jump and go unchanged with the next increase.
 * I test this at USPS.com and the result is “normal” with a small increase from
   2 lbs to 3 lbs. The test is from Ohio to Seattle WA.
 * I did check the product weights to ensure I hadn’t made an error and all check
   in a 1 lb. each with same package size.

 * I also have a problem. I checked the debug logs when sending out multiple qtys
   of an item 1″ cubed item at .25 oz. Your system sends out the stats of 1 item
   then gets a package amount from USPS. Evidently your system takes the qty ordered
   and multiplies it against the package amounts returned by USPS. This process 
   simply will not work, since we fit multiple items inside 1 package.
 * How are others using your system to get appropriate shipping amounts?

 * Hi Mreffin,
 * The overall scenario of our business is as follows :
 * 1. If client is a small business owner with 1 item and he needs only real time
   features, then he can opt for the basic version of the plugin in wordpress.
    
   2. If client has more products, a) he needs custom rates, b) he needs box packing
   c) or he needs different services for different shipping classes, d) wants to
   print labels for multiple products and get tracking information, etc then he 
   has to purchase our premium plugin.
 * Let us know if you have any query.

 * I have 6 products all the same weight and at times can be packaged together when
   purchased. I need to be able to calculate the correct shipping when multiple 
   items are purchased. Each product weighs 13 oz and I have all the different boxes
   sizes that are used to package the items along with weights. I just need to find
   out how to input it.

 * Hi,
 * We need some piece of information so that we can analyse your issue in a better
   way.
 * Could you please tell us which plugin you are referring here?
 * There is an option called “Pack into boxes with weight and dimensions” for field“
   Parcel Packing. In this option All the cart items are packed into custom boxes
   defined in Box Dimensions settings. The best fit box is auto chosen from the 
   defined boxes. This is the recommended option.You can read through setting up
   box dimensions to understand more in detail.
 * Let us know, if you need some help

 * After searching for a plug in that would work with woocommerce and calculate 
   USPS international postage I thought I was finally in luck. However, it is not
   giving the correct postage. I am shipping using the USPS Priority Flat Rate small
   box. The actual cost to send to Canada is something like 24.95 but the plug in
   raises it up to about 38.00. Same issue for other destinations like the UK which
   should be 33.95 but is being shown as 48.00.
 * I have selected only Priority Mail and Priority International as the services
   to get prices for. I didn’t see a selection for Priority Mail Rate Rate Boxes.
 * Any ideas?

 * Hi charleyntexas,
    The Basic USPS plugin takes the product as a package. You 
   are getting the rates for the package. Please select package option in USPS rate
   calculator to see the difference.
 * However, there is an option to overcome this. You can use box packing option 
   in [Premium](http://usps.wooforce.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-settings&tab=shipping&section=wf_shipping_usps)
   version of the plugin to get the desired rates.
