I haven't heard word back from Development about the apparent Commercial rates that damndirtyape was reporting, so I'm not sure how to account for that, unless maybe there was a temporary glitch at UPS's end that had their site's rate API always returning Commercial rates for some brief period? Or maybe they always treat certain zipcodes as Commercial? All I know is, we pass the order's origin and destination zipcodes and total weight data to UPS as a Residential shipment, and their site returns a rate that we add to the cart -- pretty simple process, really.

Make sure you configure each product with an accurate Weight that includes any packing materials required for each unit of that product, and configure your packaging types with an accurate empty weight, so the combined weight of products and packaging will add up adequately close to the actual weight of the shipment.]]> E-junkie Discussions; E-junkieGuru http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/3892/pg/0#post12508 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/3892/pg/0#post12508 Tue, 8 Dec 2009 21:14:07 GMT
I need this not for calculating the shipping price to the customer, but to be able to give this information to the shipper. They will charge me more for residential shipping.

I am not concerned that this pricing information gets to the buyer, but I need to supply it to the shipper.

Is this a feature of e-junkie, or do I have to get a custom application done?

The rate E-junkie polls from UPS is wrong unless the buyer is at a commercial residence (very unlikely)

I would imagine there is a flag or parameter to pass to UPS that denotes which type of address rate to return, no?

I'm guessing this issue applies to the vast majority of people using E-junkie. How does everyone else deal with this basic problem? Over 2.00 dollars on a single 1lb package is a huge difference between what the customer is charged for shipping and what I'll end up paying to UPS when I send it.

Our development department is working on adding in support for FedEx shipping. We do not have a timeline of how soon the option will be available.]]> E-junkie Discussions; E-junkieNinja http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/3892/pg/0#post12508 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/3892/pg/0#post12508 Wed, 25 Nov 2009 15:08:08 GMT
For example when I enter my own zip code in the checkout pop-up it says the delivery cost is 6.88. Heading over to the UPS site and using their calculator it gives me 9.07 for ground delivery. It gives me 6.94 when I choose the "commercial address" radio button, but I'm not a commercial address. How does one deal with this discrepancy?

Am I missing something obvious?

Also, is FedEX support going to be added soon? I see it mentioned in previous threads but with no clear answer.
