Shipping Fee ?

The guy who set up our OSC appears to have added a shipping fee of $3 somewhere in the system even though there should be no shipping fee because our products are digital downloads.

 

I went into the shipping module and found it was set up for a $5 flat rate. Where the $3 comes from I don't know. Maybe it is a default fee of some sort? I zeroed out the $5 flat rate and disabled the flat shipping altogether.

 

I then sent a friend in to register and purchase a $1 product using PayPal. At the checkout counter it adds a $3 shipping fee. Total fee for the $1 item is $4.00.

 

 

How do I shut that 3.00 fee off?

Still no response here? Am I posting to the right group? I'll try posting a duplicate in General Support and see if someone there knows the answer.

the only thing I can think of is to check the shipping module again! make sure everything is uninstalled. Make sure you only have the flatrate set and make sure it is zero....

I can't think of anything else that can be causing it.

if at first you do succeed...try not to look surprised!

Thanks Glamourfish, I'll take a looksee and make sure everything is as you advise. I was afraid it was hard-coded because there was never an entry for $3. The flat rate was set to $5 as a default but I zeroed that out. Will try again.

 

What would be helpful is an answer from someone actually offering and selling digital downloads and a posting of their shipping settings. I could match them and see if the problem persists and be better able to pinpoint the problem. :'(
