    Default flat shipping + handling per item

    is there a way to configure flat shipping + a handling charge per item?

    basically $3 shipping
    $1 handling

    so if they order 1 item it would total $4 but if they order 10 items it would be $13


    thanks for the help, i've not been able to find an answer to this.

    Default Re: flat shipping + handling per item

    OK i did some looking, would the following changes to the flat rate module work if i wanted the flate rate then the total # of items times 5. I'm just using 5 as an example any number should work right?


    $this->quotes = array('id' => $this->code,
    'module' => MODULE_SHIPPING_FLATCLONE_TEXT_TITLE,
    'methods' => array(array('id' => $this->code,
    'title' => MODULE_SHIPPING_FLATCLONE_TEXT_WAY,
    'cost' => MODULE_SHIPPING_FLATCLONE_COST + ($item_total_count * 5))));

    Default Re: flat shipping + handling per item

    OK that last one did not work at all. However i played around a bit and attatched is a working flate rate shipping + handling per item.

    example

    flat shipping of $15 + $3 per item
    if someone were to order 10 items their total shipping costs would be
    15+ (3*10) for a total of $45 using this modified flat rate module

    hope this helps others

    I believe you need to look at the Item Rate ...

    You appear to want a Handling fee plus a per item rate ...

    flat shipping of $15 + $3 per item
    if someone were to order 10 items their total shipping costs would be
    15+ (3*10) for a total of $45 using this modified flat rate module
    Handling: 12.00
    Rate: 3.00

    1 item = 12 + 3 = $15
    2 items = 12 + 2*3 = $18
    3 items = 12 + 3*3 = $21
    10 items = 12 + 3*10 = $42

    Adjust Handling and unit price as needed ...
