Kat,

Shipping is the holy grail of internet sales. The way to solve your quest is to check out which shipper you will most likely be happiest with: USPS, UPS, or FedEx. Further, the standard retail rates are not intended for businesses. Each of these shippers have business rates based on your shipping volume.

After you get some ideas, go to the business resources sections of their website and find the list of "integration partners". Find a company among those whose services and rates fit your needs.

The bottom line is that you need a shopping cart that "knows" how to get real-time quotes AT YOUR RATE from your shipper.
