    Default Paypal adding shipping and handling?

    Hi there,

    I have set up my shop to be free shipping within the UK. I have set myself up an account and I was test driving it tonight and buying an item to see if all was working. I am buying an item I have priced at £5.00 with free shipping, when I hit 'confirm', and it goes to Paypal, it displays the subtotal with 'postage' as £5.90, e.g. 90p 'shipping and handling'.

    How, why...is this down to me? Paypal? I find it hard to believe its Paypal, as its free to use for purchasing..

    Any ideas, what have I missed?

    I think I worked it out. Though I had turned on the 'Free Shipping' module, in'Shipping' Modules, I had not turned off 'Shipping; in the in 'Order Total' modules.

    Hope that is it!? Confused much?

    No, that didn't work. If I buy and item for £5.00 it adds 90p, postage, if I buy for £10, then it doesnt add anything...

    *brain burn*

    Before you get to PayPal is there any shipping and handling in the total?

    Kim...

    I found out what it was. In my profile in my account in Paypal, in the Sellers section, and in the Postage Calculations section, there is a table (as you know), in the first row, it had 0.90 flat rate for the price range £00.01 to 9.99. Naughty, as I didn't put it there. I am now worried at what else is there.

    Anyway, I have set it to 0. But...blimey!
