Feature: buying two different items enables discount

 

Hi,

I am selling car-equipment, and want to give my customers a discount if they buy fx. one screen and one dvd-player. Is it possible to make osC calcuate a discount when these two products are added to the cart ?

 

I could just make one item featuring the two products, but then I cant keep track of my inventory that well.

 

Hope you can help ..

Not sure if it exists (haven't looked) but it would be a good addition imho. I would like to do something similar by giving away a free gift with the purchase of 2 items in a certain class. Anyway, if it doesn't exist, this one gets my vote as well. :)

I have something like this for my site, except in my case it's what I call a "mix-and-match" discount where if you buy combinations of products in a certain class, you get a quantity discount. I do intend to put this into a contribution, but it is complicated and I haven't had the time to finish it.

 

I started with the "Classes of Products" contribution (and fixed the bugs in it.) Now for my case, I added a new Order Total module to compute the discount. For a free gift, you could create a discount equal to the price of the gift. You could have the customer add the gift to their order themselves, or figure out a way to add it automatically (and only when the right combination is present, and make sure that it goes away if the customer removes items from their cart.)

I would love to find a contribution that could do this.

My scenario is complicated any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated:

 

1 tub = 3.50

2 tub = 3.25

3 tub = 3.00

4 tub = 2.75

5 tub = 2.50

6 tub = 2.25

7 tub+ = 2.00

 

These tubs can be a selection of 9 types of insects, and 8 possible sizes per tub.

 

example buy: 2xcricket tubs, 3xlocust tubs, 1xmealworm tubs, will cost 6 x 2.25 = 13.50 total.

 

My thoughts where to create a category called mix&match then have seven products underneath:

 

Insect Pick&Mix

1 tub

2 tub

3 tub

4 tub

5 tub

6 tub

7 tub+

 

This way I could carry the price across and use attributes to handle the rest but its a major pain doing all these attributes, andI think it would be a pain also for customers, Master Products with attributes I am working on to see if this can work.

 

Anyone else any thoughts on this problem PLEASE PLEASE do help me out I am pulling me hair out, whats left anyrd. :D

I considered that approach - you're right, it's a major pain.

 

I've got what you want on my store, but it isn't in a form I can give you, as I didn't put in more general code that you would want. For example, I have only two price levels.

 

I did start on making this into a contribution, but have not had time to complete it.
