I have a customer who wants to place a (semi-large) order. But she is moving to Germany - and her house is being packed up on the 4th. I know if I submit it today, there is no way that it will ship and receive by the 4th. So just wondering if there is a way to pay for priority mail or something? Thanks!
 
If it is an individual order placed through your website, the customer can choose different shipping options - Shewould just have to pay more for it.

Don't be so sure. If you submit it this morning, it very well MAY be to MO before the 4th.
 
You can place the order in P3 and request expedited shipping. Place it as an individual order and on the left where it says SHIP TO, under it is says, SHIPPING METHOD. Click on CHANGE SHIPPING METHOD to request Next Day or Second Day.

Good luck!
