Shipping solution needed.

Hi,

 

I am developing an OSCommerce store that will sell primarily surfboards.

 

Right now, my client only wants to ship within the US which is divided into 8 shipping zones. My client will provide me with a table of shipping rates for each product and zone. Example: Product A shipped to zone 1 costs $20, Product A shipped to zone 2 costs $30, etc. So, each product will have 8 different shipping costs that depend on the buyers specific location.

 

I wonder if anyone can tell me which shipping module would be most appropriate for this method of shipment. Is this something that can be done with the Table Rates or Zone Rates modules, or is there a more appropriate module that I can download and install? I must admit, just from looking at the table rates and zone rates modules, I have absolutely no idea how to go about entering the necessary data. So, if anyone can provide an example of how to enter the data, it would be much appreciated.

 

Also, my client would like to offer reduced shipping costs to customers who buy more than one of the same, or similar product. Is this something that can be done with OSCommerce?

 

Thank you in advance for any help that you can provide.

I'm gonna ask a second question.

 

In the store I am developing, we'd like to charge $1 shipping for each additional item.. prefarably the heaviest item would be the base charge.

 

Any suggestions for that?

 

Thanks in advance :thumbsup:
