Hi all, hoping for a solution.
Is there a way to calculate international rates on shipstation prior to an order
being paid?

The usps calculator has gotten complex and doesn't have an option for less
than a pound in weight.
Any help, thanks! amber

You can create a label from scratch and use a fake international shipping address

Does the USPS website no longer let you do rates by country?

I don't know if you're sending to the EU but keep in mind there's
nowhere on PayPal Shipstation to enter the IOSS number.

On ShipStation.com find the small calculator icon at the top middle of the page.
Handy little button.

My problem is that I must be stupid because I can't figure out how to get
to the page you're referencing? I see no way from paypal and if I go to shipstation
on the web I don't see it there either?

Maybe WildBricks is using the non-PayPal version of ShipStation? Anyway, if you
have the buyer's address and you just need a shipping quote, you can create
a label from scratch and copy and paste the address.

The calculator on the USPS website does work for international shipping; simply
ignore the customs declaration. Note that the USPS calculator uses retail pricing
while ShipStation uses commercial pricing.

It seems BrickLink isn't the only website written using spaghetti code…
