Recommended Posts

how i do configure MS2 to just ship to the UK?

 

I want to offer UK shipping only at the mo, also with a drop down box to select the county.

 

can someone please help asap, i want to offer worldwide shipping but have no idea how to set up zones etc, so UK only for the moment until i figure out cost of sending items abroad.

 

I use recorded and special delivery for small items and the larger stuff we send with a courier..

 

can someone please help, thanks

right ive sort of figured something out but...

 

any weight i add into the product description the shipping modules add approximatly 2KG??

 

why would it do this?

 

a product that weighs 0.2 kg is showing up as 2.2 KG in the checkout thus overcharging the customer for post, im probabaly losing sales theis way. What is happening, is there a default setting for this?

 

help from anyone appreciated.!!

This will be due to the tare weight

 

In your admin left navigation panel under configuration and then Shipping/ Packaging

 

Package Tare weight.

Tare weight is used where extra packaging is needed and accounts for the weight of the box/crate paper bubblewrap etc.
