Need to set first item to $5.99 and each item after +$2.00 for all items

[dabbuhl]

Basically, I want to charge on shipping as follows:

 

1 Item = $5.99

2 Items = $7.99 (this would be $5.99+$2.00)

3 Items = $9.99 (this would be $5.99+$2.00+$2.00)

4 Items = $11.99 (this would be $5.99+$2.00+$2.00+$2.00)

5 Items = $13.99 (this would be $5.99+$2.00+$2.00+$2.00+$2.00)

and so on, and so on.....

I read this contrib that you linked to and it does not specify where to place the 2 files. Can you help me with it?

Follow the directory structure in the contribution package... the module file is uploaded to (catalog)/includes/modules/shipping and the language file to (catalog)/includes/languages/english/modules/shipping

[dabbuhl]

Is the module file the smaller one?

please do not install a contribution. Recently, many - even huge - contributions have been suggested when standard oscommerce already offers everything needed.

 

use the per item module, as here:

Shipping Cost

The shipping cost will be multiplied by the number of items in an order that uses this shipping method.

2.00

 

Handling Fee

Handling fee for this shipping method.

3.99

 

I'm sure you have seen these arithmetic rows in maths class before. Your fee tree would have been correct this way:

1 Item = base of $3.99 + 1x$2.00

2 Items = $7.99 (base of $3.99 + 2x$2.00)

3 Items = $9.99 (base of $3.99 + 3x$2.00)

4 Items = $11.99 (base of $3.99 + 4x$2.00)

5 Items = $13.99 (base of $3.99 + 5x$2.00)
