Hi there.
Nice piece of software peoples.

My application involves multiple ( fingers crossed ) items purchased and sent to the same address. Not multiples of same item.
For example first item $6.95 but extra items in same delivery will be $2.00 each.
Can the cart do this ?
If so, how ?

Hi

The best way to accomplish this is to use the handling charges option in combination with shipping options.

1. Apply a $2.00 handling charge to every product
2. Setup a default shipping charge of 0.00
3. Add a shipping option of $6.95 and check the box "Require customers to select a shipping option on checkout"

Just noticed.
Perhaps if my first item postage charge is $6.95
then my customer selectable should be $4.95 ( plus the $2.00 handling on all items ).

Hi Scott,
If I want to use $9.95 as standard shipping cost per unit ordered, but offer a $2.00 discount per item (for shipping) if more than one item is ordered... how can I accomplish this the easiest?

There is no way to offer any discounts like that in the software at this time.

If I read this correctly couldn't you use a shipping charge of $2.00 and then use $7.95 as your handling charge?
With 1 item you'd get $9.95 and add $7.95 for each additional item ordered.
Might want to explain that to your shoppers though.

This is how it reads, but this is what I'm doing, and this is why I'm doing it ---
