I'm very new to Web Payments Standard. Thought I'd be able to enter some product info (weights, dimensions, etc.) and PayPal would automatically come up with exact amount for UPS, FedEx, USPS, etc. It seems more like I have to define the shipping cost per item, or by weight, after researching for myself what formula will always cover the actual costs. If that's the case, any recommendations on how I determine the shipping costs for various quantities, weights, etc.? Buy a scale? Get Stamps.com? Spend an hour at the post office getting quotes for various combinations of products? I'm not impressed with documentation I've found on shipping. But perhaps I'm missing something. Thanks.
