OSCOMMERCE SUPPORT CALL 702-453-3332

Hi. I know this had to have been discussed before, but I really can't find relevant posts from this year or close.

All of a sudden, I had a lot of USPS options for international shipping at my store, whereas a few weeks ago, there were only a few... I think that when I installed OSC, I limited the choices by deleting ones I didn't want. I am only shipping band tshirts and cds, all single items are under a pound weight wise. Then I started getting emails saying that when ever international customers tried to check out, USPS would revert to Global Express no matter what the customer choose. I tried it today myself, setting up an English address and tested with a product, and here were my findings...

Global Express Guaranteed
Global Express Guaranteed Non-Document Rectangular
Global Express Guaranteed Non-Document Non-Rectangular
USPS GXG Envelopes*****
Express Mail International (EMS)
Express Mail International (EMS) Flat-Rate Envelope*****
Priority Mail International
Priority Mail International Flat-Rate Envelope*****
Priority Mail International Flat-Rate Box*****
Priority Mail International Large Flat-Rate Box*****
First Class Mail International Large Envelope*****
First Class Mail International Package*****

***** indicated that at the 'Order Confirmation Page' the shipping reverted to 'Global Express Guaranteed' no matter what I did.

The only ones I want to even use are 'First Class International' and maybe 'International Flat Rate Envelope'... the rest are just too much.

Domestic US calculation seems to be fine, so I am at a loss here. I am well versed in HTML and CSS, but with PHP I am still in beginner's mode, big time. I figured it may have something to do with the May 12 USPS changes, but I really don't see anyone else with the prob right now. Please help!!!!

Thanks in advance.

OSCommerce 2.2RC2a, stock USPS modules.

First Class International has also stopped working at my store - I'm not sure when it happened - I suspect it's some US Postal Service glitch or change.

Will continue researching and will post or check back for any updates.

Yes, that was the first thing I dug up... was excited about it, did the fix and didn't even double check to see if it worked entirely or not

A few days later I got an email saying it was still reverting to Global Express.

So in further investigation, I find that at the 'Delivery Information' page, the USPS options are displayed... by default the cheapest one is selected, 'First Class International Mail Large Envelope' at $5.90. Thats great that it chooses the cheapest one out of a trillion options (that I wish to not have), but when continuing, by the time you get to the 'Delivery Confirmation' page, it reverts to 'Global Express Guaranteed'. What I did find however, is with the above fix, 'First Class Mail International Package' DOES work as expected, at $6.10. But it is not chosen by default since I guess it is 20 cents more.

'First Class Mail International Package' is really the only one I want to offer for international... and it does at least work now with that fix. But it does bother me that the others don't work, even if I chose not to use them.

Thanks.

I too am having this international mail problem. It is interesting that this must affect everyone, yet so few respond to this forum. The previous fix did not work for me either. I also used current usps.php in alpha 4 version and still not works.
