bubbasheeko Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 I wanted to know if there is a way of having the shipping module determine which category an item came from, and if there is 5 items or less purchased, it would combine them as one item for the shipping calculator? The items are small packages that would fit into and shipping envelope and can hold at least 5. That is how I ship these now, but setting this up in OSCommerce appears impossible. Any suggestions greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions greatly appreciated! If your shipping module lets you specify the size of your packaging, and you have the dimensions on your products, osc will do it for you.

Enzo_UK Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Do you currently use the weights of the items? If not how about just using the Zone based rates method, set the weight of those small items to '1' and then set a price for a weight of '5' But in the end it depends on how well this will also work for any other items you sell, and any other shipping rates you have to work out.
