Double the shipping charge

Hi all, thanks for your time.

 

I have a few products that I offer on my site that have to be shipped twice. In other words, I ship a kit to the customer and when they are complete, they ship it back to me. I then ship the final kiln fired piece back the customer.

 

I need a way to charge them for shipping the same item twice. ANy suggestions?

You could just build it into the price, or do you need to charge a veriable based on the distance?

 

You could double the weight, or...

 

You could double the wieght and set your 'Enter the Maximum Package Weight you will ship' to something less then the weight of your products and set the 'Larger packages - percentage increase.' to 100%

 

You can always increase your handling fee too.

Best Regards,

You could add a field to the products table products_double_shipping

 

When set to 1 or true then have your shipping adjust the weight or count depending on how you shipping to double the weight of that one product in the cart.

 

You might also want to use this extra field to alert the customer that there is a double shipping fee on that product and have that show on the product_info page and shopping_cart as well as in the email.

 

It's a bit of work, but this can be setup to work auto for you with just the one additional field in products that you can then just setup for On/Off in Admin when adding the product.
