Clegg78 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) FYI for any members down under, there is an issue processing shipping rates for Australia right now for some weird USPS API reason. Update: Turns out this is NOT an API issue, USPS legit just stopped doing 1st class or Priority mail to Australia for some reason. I cant even do shipping through the USPS site itself to anywhere in Aus. https://powerretail.com.au/news/slower-than-in-the-70s-usps-temporarily-suspends-deliveries-to-australia/ Only shipping option to Australia right now is USPS Priority Express which is $70.

BBB Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Is there a UK rate @Clegg78? I could bodge a solution but would like to support an innovative forum member. 2 Red 2015 Tracer, UK spec (well, it was until I started messing with it...)

Yeah the site should work for the UK for International 1st class shipping. Just go and check out and it should work. Australia is the only country that for some reason the API is broken for.

So I set a flat rate of $15 USD (which will likely be a loss for me by a few bucks, but keeps it easy) for shipping down there 1st class USPS until they get this resolved I had an issue similar to this when ordering yesterday for shipping to Ontario. Going directly to PayPal would only provide two shipping options, $30 USPS being the lowest. I had to do this the long way and then select PayPal, which then carried through the lowest $15 USPS carrier pigeon option. 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(or $150 for UPS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah... it seems USPS has stopped tracking for some countries once packages leave our shore now... or in some cases its still at the departure point for a week waiting to move. The USPS has been so damn random, some people get packages super fast over seas, others it bounces around in a departure point in the US for a week then finally moves to the same country ordered around the same time! That's why I've updated the timelines on the site to say Intl delivery may be 10 - 30 days. It sucks, but its where we are right now it seems Best I can do is ship the orders the day they are placed, and I do Edited October 21, 2021 by Clegg78 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
