I am using the USPS estimate option in my cart. I have noticed that the estimates that the cart gets are less than the actual rate I get with the same information when going to the Calculate a Price on the USPS website. Am I missing something here?

For instance.
3lb. box 30x3x13 : Estimate is $12.68 but the Calculate a Price on USPS website is $13.35

This should be in PHP. Sorry about that.

Hi Frank, the shipping estimator is within 1.00 +/- and your example is .67 do you get the same when filling out the full shipping address on the cart page vs using the shipping estimator?

Yes. Even once the full address has been input it shows the same $12.68 total

I figured it out. For some reason it was showing Parcel Post as the only option even though I know I set the Priority Mail as the only option. I must not have saved the page. lol Pilot error

Hi Frank glad you spotted the problem.
