Shipping Rates

[KhandiBee]

Hi Guys :

My client wants to offer different levels of shipping..

We got the first tier done which is basic USPS based on price

Client would like to offer:
Reg Shipping
Priority Shipping
Express Shipping
etc...

Does Anyone have a clue how to do this?

Thanks In Advance!

Don't the options available via USPS offer the different methods?

What are you really wanting that is different?

Example: A 1lb product with a 3lb Tare for 4lbs gives these options:

United States Postal Service (1 x 4.00lbs) (Express Mail (1 - 2 days)) $25.50
United States Postal Service (1 x 4.00lbs) (Priority Mail (2 - 3 days)) $5.60
United States Postal Service (1 x 4.00lbs) (Parcel Post (4 - 7 days)) $5.35
United States Postal Service (1 x 4.00lbs) (Media Mail) $3.03
United States Postal Service (1 x 4.00lbs) (Bound Printed Material) $2.34
United States Postal Service (1 x 4.00lbs) (Library) $2.89

I can turn off those that I do not need such as Media, Bound and Library

This leaves the Express, Priority and Parcel Post as available options ...

I can also turn off the display of number of boxes and weight if desired so just the quote shows ...

Can you expand on what you are trying to accomplish beyond this?

Sure, Thanks for your response..

Client is using prices for shipping, so I used the tables because client charges different prices for shipping each product .. i.e.
3.95:1.95,8.95:3.95,17.95:5.95,35.95:7.95
for priority is should be 3.95:4.95
for overnight should be 3.95: 16.95
Canada Should Be 3.95:4.95
etc..

Would Zones or the add-on by dreamscape for MZMT be more useful to you in setting up different prices for different Zones?

well let me go and see :)

Ok, I did all of the rates like this

for Priority
3.95:4.95,8.95:5.95,17.95:6.95
For Overnight
3.95:16.95,8.95:17.95,17.95:19.95
for Canada
3.95:4.95,8.95:5.95,17.95:6.95
for UK
3.95:6.95,8.95:6.95,17.95:7.95,35.95:17.95

Now I went and make 5 zones and put all of the above rates where we want them to be.

Im testing the shipping as if Im ordering someting, and how can I make it priority and overnigth an option .. its just showing the priority rate and not the overnight

Looking at the attached pic...

Where it says Expedited Shipping..

is there anyway to have my other options (zones) show up?

That is what the MZMT is all about ... you can configure all kinds of combinations on tables and zones and then set the text to read anything you want it to read ...
