So PayPal discounts shipping when you purchase on the site. So how do I get a PayPal cost of shipping estimate to put on the estimate form my buyer wants. I use the PayPal discounted price to determine what I'm going to charge my customer so I really need to know what it is before I give an estimate.

Ok I figured what I had to do is use eBays shipping calculator since it gives same discount
and it's updated to U.S. Postal regulations for Dim shipping.

Didn't help at all really, when a customer ask you to send a invoice from PayPal you go to tools then invoicing then create estimate now my thinking there should be a tab there for the shipping estimate after all your are here to do just that an estimate. ie: zip code, size of box, weight and type of shipping and shipper. I see no estimator that does that for creating an estimate invoice for a customer. Not saying it's not there I'm just not seeing it. So what I have to do is log in to each individual shipping web site get shipping and then do the estimate invoice but that does not help me with the discount that is generated when you purchase shipping on PayPal as I use that to adjust my shipping quote as this is an estimate and the customer may be comparing yours with someone else so you do want to be competitive. Sorry for being a pain I'm just trying to figure out how to use PayPal without having to jump all over the internet.
