FrancineNJ Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 I sell VHS & DVD's. The weight of a VHS alone is 7.5 oz's and the DVD is 3.9 oz's. USPS comes up with this: United States Postal Service (1 x 3.9lbs) Priority (2 - 3 Days) $5.30 I know Priority mail will cost 3.85 to ship it.... so that's wrong. How do I enter the weight into Oscommerce for these products so that USPS comes back with the right amount? Also, is it absolutely necessary to enter the Maximum Package Weight I'll ship, Package Tar Weight and Larger Packages???? Thanks for your help.

OceanRanch Posted February 27, 2005 Share Posted February 27, 2005 (edited) Set packaging weight admin->configuration->shipping/packaging->pacjkage tare weight to 4 oz (1/4 lb) by entering .25 You can also enter maximum package weight there as well. You can do the math on the oz for the DVD and VHS to come up with .xx for those and enter those in the product's weight. You still may come up a little short or over on the quote returned by USPS. You'll just need to keep this in mind. HTH Tom Edited February 27, 2005 by OceanRanch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
