I’m in the process of rolling out a series of Australian online shopping cart websites powered by weekly updated drop shipping catalogs. The challenge is I’m exclusively using Instinct’s WP E-Commerce plugin for WordPress and I’m picking up on some areas I’d like optimised for Australian online retailers, like…

• Flat rate Shipping Calculator depend on each Australian state – A request for a new Internal Shipping Calculator supporting different flat rate shipping for each Australian state, selectable at check-out page.
  Update: I’ve published instructions for adding flat rate shipping support for Australian and other countries in WP E-Commerce
• Tax – how to display total price inclusive of tax? – Shop owners are unsure how to display product prices inclusive of tax which is a dirty area for Australians trading online.
  Update: The latest release of WP e-Commerce includes a Tax is inclusive in Price option within Store > Settings
  Update: Additional thread, Tax Zones for GST/VAT
• Shipping Module for Australia Post – Requests have been raised for the development of an Australia post shipping module, I’d like to see Fed Ex added int there for international couriers. Will be introduced in 3.7.6
  Update: The latest release of WP e-Commerce includes the Australia Post shipping module
