Quick announcement: after breaking Google Checkout in the right places and bribing the proper customs officials, I'm happy to announce I can now sell and ship the posters internationally. Sorry for the delay.

Hi,

It seems that Google Checkout ask for the payment method before showing the full price of the item you want to buy. Especially the shipping price.

I do not think it is comforting or reassuring customers to not be aware of some fees before giving their credit card information...

I was planning buying some posters for my classroom but now I can tell that I wont if there is no secure and full information about the order.

Regards, NoMatter.

@NoMatter: You need to provide a shipping address before shipping can be calculated. It varies depending on whether you're US, CA/ME, or other. As with any ecommerce site, nothing is charged until you review and approve the final total.
