Hi,

We use a drop shipper and are wanting to use another different drop shipper and possibly
one other.

How do you set up your shipping when using 2 or 3 different drop shipper with different zip
codes?

Thanks in advance

thanks Steve for the link. I can't tell if those instructions are for if you have separate dropshippers that
have different zip codes/addresses etc..

Hi Dano, There is no way to specify a different outbound zip code for each product or drop shipper.
I think what you might want to do is set the shipping origin zip code to a zip that is in the vicinity of your drop shippers.
In other words, if one is in Tennessee, and one in Georgia, and one in Florida, you might set your shipping calculations to originate from Georgia.

It may require some fine tuning over time, but you might lose a bit on some and make extra on others. Shipping charges, and shipping paid to shippers should be looked at over a large timespan. Say, several months minimum.
Compare what you took in with what you pay out, and make adjustments as needed.

Thanks,
David

thanks David, that was what I had thought, but kinda a bummer.

Can I do flat rate for an individual product? or can we offer free shipping on just one product?
