Hi all. I just had an order come to me, and I have calculated shipping for most of my listings. I noticed that the shipping was less on the buyer’s invoice than what USPS website is saying for that weight to their zip code. It is an 11 oz. package. Yes, I checked to see if I had put 11 oz on the weight. On the Bonanza invoice it says $4.83 shipping to the buyer, but when I go to USPS, it says $5.30 to that zip code. Has anybody else had any trouble with the shipping calculator on here syncing with USPS website prices or have I done something wrong? Thank you guys and gals for any response. :)

Bonanza is using commercial rate, USPS site is using over the counter retail rates. USPS website no longer offers commercial or online discount rates.
If you go to paypal, find the invoice, select print shipping label you will also get the lower commercial base rate
Those who do not use bonanza shipping, use some other service or paypal to create shipping labels because the cost is cheaper. Personally, I have always used paypal for shipping (bonanza did not have a shipping service until recently)

Unrelated to First Class calculations, but still a PROBLEM is that Bonanza STILL does NOT offer a shipping calculation for PARCEL mail pricing… only Priority and most recently First Class.
Been begging for Parcel calc for what seems like a decade now on deaf ears here.
