Does anybody know if a shipping estimator or calculator for the product detail page in VM2 exists? (more specifically via FedEx, UPS or USPS).
I believe there are customers that get to the product pages and want to immediately know the cost of shipping (at least the cheapest ground option) before the checkout process. Especially when they're considering and comparing different vendors to purchase the same product from.
All it would require as an input is Country and Postal Code. And then would spit out the returned values from the shipping plugins that are enabled in VM.
Here's an example of what I'm talking about (look for the Calculate Shipping box under the product thumbnails):
