Shipping module for the WP E-Commerce system that offers weight based shipping to various destination types.
This plugin provides two shipping modules for the WP E-Commerce system that offer shipping:
Quotes can be calculated either by looking up the entire cart total weight against the configured weight bands, or alternatively
by looking up each individual item, and summing up the individual costs.
Both modules can be used at the same time – see (http://www.leewillis.co.uk/region-based-shipping-wp-e-commerce/)
This plugin also provides an online tool to allow you to split countries into whatever regions are relevant for your business.
