 * So I have installed the Sendle plug-in and for any International orders it throws
   up this error:
 * Array
   ([status] => 400[error] => Bad Request)
 * Which is a completely useless error message. Local shipments in Australia work
   fine.
 * I have stepped through the order details manually based on the information in
   the log and the Sendle order will raise without issue.
 * So any clues?

 * Well I finally got this to work.
 * The question now is – why does the Plug-in use the Product Short Description 
   for the Sendle item description rather than the product title?
 * This appears to have been the issue that the API didn’t like something in the
   Product Short Description. So I simplified the short description in the products
   the customer had ordered and resubmitted the Sendle request manually and it worked.
 * The upshot being I have gone through all my products and simplified all the short
   descriptions in an attempt to get this work. So when a new overseas order is 
   placed I will see if it works and automatically raises the Sendle order.
 * As mentioned above it would seem like a far better idea to use the product title
   as the Sendle Item description than the short description.
