oliversi Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Hello everyone. I've looked around the forums and looked through the shipping modules, but I cannot seem to find anything that will suit my needs. I'm hoping somebody will be able to suggest what I should do. Basically, We are setting up a book shop, and we want the shipping costs to be calculated by the amount of books being sent, IE: ?1.99 for 1 book, ?2.00 for 2-5 books etc etc, the costs also need to be different for europe and overseas deliveries.. It seems very simple but I must be simple as I cannot find out how to do this at all! I would grately appreciate any help! Thanks in advance, Ollie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seank123 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 Not sure if there's a module that does that but you could fake it with the 'table rate' shipping module - just set all your books weights to '1' and use something like: 1:1.99,5:3.99 etc That would give a carriage of ?1.99 for 1 book (or 1kg in weight) and ?3.99 for 2 - 5 books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
