Hello,

Has anyone been able to get Google Checkout working with MVS (Multi-Vendor Shipping) reliably?

The 3 second timeout required by Google to provide shipping rates seems to make this quite challenging to work reliably when quoting from many vendors as it can take over 3 seconds to get that number of responses from UPS + FedEx + USPS.


We setup some code to cache shipping rates from the rate providers so it will generally always work after the page is F5'd but Google defaults to the standard provided rates in almost all cases on the initial page load. Is anyone aware of a method to allow GoogleCheckout to work properly with MVS?

Thanks
