Need Robust Shipping Built In: Shippo
The number one problem I have run into in my retail goods marketplace is the lack of more sophisticated shipping options being built into the system.
I have lost potential clients because the only option is a flat rate that is self-specified. That might be fine for individuals, but existing businesses are accustomed to shipping based on weight and distance.
I have recommended an integration of Shippo, which I believe is essentially free to integrate via their API's and is paid by the user.
If you have a retail goods marketplace, better shipping integration is critical

We have not tightly integrated (API integration) any shipping partners because there are myriad nationalities and geographies using us. Shippo is a brilliant idea because of its coverage, and we're pleased to say that have added Shippo as an affiliate partner - you can use them as your delivery method off Arcadier and get a better rate from them through Arcadier! Check out our Affiliates here and look for Shippo under 'Logistics'.

What you are saying makes no sense for your USA clients because for this product to not have shipping integration really drops the value of your sites. You gotta Have UPS or FEDEX in the game or else you are playing games.
What you are causing is serious financial problems for us because we can easily over or undercharge customers leading to losses of sales.
Personally I haven't ordered from a website without shipping APi for over 10 years. I am disappointed that you put in all this hard work and then slack off on Shipping.

it's really needed to have possibility of set up different shipping method based on distance, country, weight, delivery speed. Exemple if the seller is in europe: price 1 , in the world price 2 , in france price 3. If less than 10kg price 4 .... with combinaison country/ weight .... and i think better idea is to integrate solutions like SENDCLOUD, PACKLINK, ... with the shipping method integrated at the best price

We also need integration with API services for shipping, nationwide and international.
