    Default Help needed with implementing Shipping cost- complete Novice

    Hello
    Can anybody point me to a tutorial on how to configure postage options.
    I have spent several hours going through the post, but so far have been Unsuccessful in find any answers.

    Basically what I want to is

    In any under the value of £29 being sent to UK will have a fixed cost of £1.81 plus the cost of postage for the item.

    In item over the value of £29 being sent to UK will have a fixed price of £4.75 plus the cost of postage for the item.

    In any item being sent to EU will have a fixed cost of £4.75 plus the cost of postage for the item.


    I am aware that I need to configure a weight to postage amount table
    I have tried various configurations under Modules/shipping such
    as setting minimum order valus to £0.001 and maxiumum order value to £29.00

    I have assigned a handling fee of £1.81

    I have also assigned a weight to the item as 1

    I have added these Shipping rates to GB & Northern Ireland
    1:0.30,2:0.40,3:0.70,4:1.00,5:1.20,6:1.50,7:2.00

    So what I expect to happen for UK delivery is that customer is charge automatically £1.81 plus 0.30 per item

    So 1 item with a weight of 1 would be £1.81 plus £0.30 total £2.11

    What I am actually getting in checkout is

    Per Unit (Best Way) £0.00
    Royal Mail 1st Class Recorded Signed ForTM "Packet" (Great Britain and Northern Ireland only : 1.000 kg(s)) £3.28
    Zone Rates (No shipping available to the selected country

    I have many more questions, but first I would like to learn how to fix this and then why it was not working.

    Website is not live and it on the server where I purchased the e commerce software. so I can not provide a link.

    Any guidance would be appreciated

    Regards Toni

    Purchased the software? If that is the case you need to talk to the folks you bought it from.
    Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

    Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.
