Hello,
I have searched everywhere and can't figure this one out.
This is for a flower company. He sells candles and flowers. My plan is to use the zone shipping module for zip codes.
The hard part is that he has one flat rate he charges for shipping to local zip codes, and then he has a separate rate I need to calculate if they do not live in this zipcode.
here is my issue:
If is the customers zipcode is one of the possible 20 that the client gave me there shipping fee will be a flat rate....Reason is because all the shipping rate really covers is the gas for the delivery driver (depending on the zip code, ex $5 for one $9 for another (client wont' drive more than 20 miles). In this case we can deliver anything for the flat amount.....it doesn't matter if they get 10 candles and a bouquet of flowers because the delivery driver can bring it with him.
So----that is figured out.
I will setup a per unit shipping module and set it at $5 per item. BUT then I need to be able to count the number of flowers and if there is 1 or more I need to add $15 to the shipping rate. (flowers is a flat $15, no matter how many they get). It would be great if I could specify that amount under or next to the other shipping total, just to break it down to the client (not necessary though).
If I could accomplish this I think it would work....only downside is that everyone in the state that the original zip codes are in will have two shipping options (one of them could be way to cheap).
any help would be greatly appreciated
thank you
