A few questions regarding postage issues...

[phr0]

Hey guys,

 

My problem is this, I have currently installed the Australia post shipping module, but its pretty buggy as its weight calculation isn't working accordingly and is causing a loss.

 

Ive search contributions and i havnt found something that will allows me to set two separate postage prices for each individual product.

 

What I mean is, as i am adding a new product, I will have a field where i input the regular postage cost and the express postage cost for that item. So my first question is is there such a thing that allows me to add this in?

 

 

if there is, then as a customer purchases products for example:

 

1. Item 1 (set postage=$5)

2. Item 2 (set postage=$5)

3. Item 3 (set postage=$15)

 

will it calculate 5+5+15= $25 dollars postage? Or is there something that chooses the highest price($15) then adds %10 from each of the other items postage price and then calculates total postage to be around $20 rather then $25.

 

I hope i have made sense guys,

 

Thank you for any information provided that can be of help.

 

 

cheers,
