Title: What is the preferred Shipping Extension to integrate?
Post by: jus2sho on January 23, 2014, 18:14:31 PM
Hi,

I'm setting up a new store with VM2.  What is the best or preferred Shipping Extension to go with?  Are there any free ones out there?

Thanks

Forgot to mention that USPS shipping is a requirement.

USPS?  http://extensions.virtuemart.net/shipments/bundle-ups-and-usps-detail

Or use the included & highly configurable Shipment Method

Thanks for the reply Jenkin. Sorry for my lack of knowledge, but can the Shipment Method be configured to bring in the shipping rates of USPS? If you could point me in the direction how to configure the stock Shipment Method, that would be much appreciated.

Since USPS is not available in the UK I have no idea what its rates/rules are. But it is preferable to a dedicated plugin specially designed for the service.
