I can't find the original thread for feedback, but I do want to post before this is finalized. It looks good, but there are a couple little changes I'd like to see made to the second page "SHIPPING":
1) There is a check off box for "commerical/business address".
PLEASE, insert "non-residential" in front of business. People will check that thinking it will get them a lower shipping rate. In fact, it will cost me a few cents more and can delay their delivery if they wrongly claim their home business as a commercial address.
2)Beneath the phone number field, reads "Note: Please enter your phone number if you are choosing an express shipment method. This will allow the shipping carrier to call you about delivery, if needed."
I ship almost exclusively with FedEx GROUND and they also require a phone number. I import to the fedex address book and if the customer's number isn't there I manually enter mine, but it slows things down. That "note" makes it sound like it's not necessary to enter a phone number if you're not using overnight delivery.

I have a comment as well.
I love that international buyers will now HAVE to choose the correct shipping (int'l) as they now won't be shown USA shipping.
But, how about the ability to only offer them teh PAYMENT methods you accept for int'l?
Some sellers don't accept Paypal for international orders, yet there is no way to disable paypal for only international orders. Will that be fixed in the new release?

Is there any chance that we can enter different weights for calculated international shipments, than the weights we have recorded for domestic shipments? I know this sounds a bit crazy, but I actually try to compact packaging for international shipments, making a point to make it lighter, so as to save them a bit of money, since it's more expensive.
I'll be sure to pass along your comments to the product manager, as we're working on the final "tweaks" now.
