 USPS Shipping Charges Always The Same
I have my cart setup to use USPS and when I checkout it always just uses the amount as it is in the product entry. When someone selects Priority or Express should it add an amount or does this need to be configured separately?

Did you set up the Shipping settings manager?
Also, you need to register with USPS to use their web tools.
If you haven't done that, you will need to:

Thanks.
Yes, in the shipping settings I had selected all of the USPS options.
I did not choose to have it compute by weight though. Will I still need a USPS account?
ie. In order to have it have a flat rate for parcel, priority, express. or have X amount flat rate then add X for priority and then X for express? Don't know, thanks for the help.

To use USPS, you need to use the USPS rate calculator and it would be calculated by weight.
Also, you need to register with USPS to use their web tools.
To do a flat rate shipping based on method, you will need to use the custom shipping logic.
There is documentation on custom shipping logic in the 'protected/DICS' directory of the store's directory on your server.

I'm sorry, I've been trying to figure this out, and I'm just not getting it. Here is the logic I'm using
@sc_shipping_logic = ( "|1-49.99|||20.0%",
"|50-99.99|||10.0%",
"|100-500|||5.0%");
Like metal_cd was saying, no matter what shipping method you choose, it always charges the same amount. I don't want to use the USPS tool because I don't do my shipping by weight. I would like to be able to have a flat rate added for each upgrade in shipping. For example, if they chose priority mail, I'd like to add $5.00. Is this possible?

What is the URL to your store?
Also, what, exactly, do you have in your custom shipping logic?
I need to see EVERYTHING that is in the Custom Shipping Logic box.

# In this example Shipping Cost is based on the total order.
# $1-$29.99 is 10%, $30-$59.99 is 7.5%, etc. (TURN OFF UPS!)
# Code does not force exit, so handling charge will be added!
@sc_shipping_logic = ( "|1-49.99|||20.0%",
"|50-99.99|||10.0%",
"|100-500|||5.0%");
#
$shipping_price = &calculate_shipping($temp_total,
$total_quantity, $total_measured_quantity);

Your shopping cart is calculating the shipping exactly as you have it coded...
There are custom shipping logic examples that employ a shipping method at:

I'm still not sure I'm following, but would this work?
@sc_shipping_logic = (
"usps|1-49.99|||20.0%",
"usps|50-99.99|||10.0%",
"usps|100-500|||5.0%");
"usps priority|1-49.99|||25.0%",
"usps priority|50-99.99|||15.0%",
"usps priority|100-500|||10.0%");
#
$shipping_price = &calculate_shipping($temp_total,
$total_quantity, $total_measured_quantity);

Nope, there are a few coding errors...
Try this code:
Code:@sc_shipping_logic = (
"usps|-49.99|||20.0%",
"usps|50.00-99.99|||10.0%",
"usps|100.00-500.00|||5.0%",
"usps priority|-49.99|||25.0%",
"usps priority|50.00-99.99|||15.0%",
"usps priority|100.00-500.00|||10.0%");
#
$shipping_price = &calculate_shipping($temp_total,
$total_quantity, $total_measured_quantity);
BTW, what happens to the shipping on orders above $500.00?
According to the shipping logic, they would get free shipping...
