High Shipping Rates to Canada From USA Using USPS Integration

We are seeing incredibly high international shipping rates when using the USPS API.

Our customer was charged $546 for “USPS First-Class Package International Service” That order was for 5 items each weighing “170” which we understand to be grams from the documentation.

We also have a 20% markup set for the service.

At first we thought that it was perhaps treating the grams as ounces, but that doesn’t work because First Class International is limited to 4lbs. When we check the rate in our own shipping solution we see somewhere around $25. Any ideas?

This was fixed by the Snipcart team.

This section originally expected a markup like 0.2 if you intended to have a 20% markup. If you set it to 20 you would get a 2000% markup.

They modified this so that the markup percentage is the whole number you provide now.
