Hopefully Simple Question

[melbo]

I cannot figure out the attributes, options etc... so I'm asking.... I simply want to list a product and have a drop down on the same page of different sizes and prices for that product. As well as ability for customer to select from the drop down....

Could one of you gurus please explain it to me... simply...

Thanks very much!

OK, I "kinda" get it.... but here's what I want to accomplish...

AKOil
16oz - 4.00
gal - 25.00

Do I still use the radio buttons?

Yes.

On your product info page in admin set the product price as 4.00
In the Attribute controller leave the + price column blank for 16oz
and for the 'gal ' just enter + 21.00 (making it 25.00)

Another option is to set the product price to zero in the product info admin. Also set the 'price by attribute' to true (same page).
Now In the Attribute controller set the + price column for 16oz to 4.00
and for the 'gal ' just + price column to 25.00. The lowest of the two will display on the product info pages and when the customer selects 'GAL' the price will change to 25.00. The order will indicate clearly to you which option the user selected.

Thanks Louis! I got the drop down done... NOW, I'd like the shoppers to be able to indicate how many of the item they want. By selecting the drop down size, it's only letting me put 1 in the cart. Suggestions/help?? OH, and now that I have 2 different sizes of the same product, where do I indicate stock levels for those product sizes?

Ok, time for a link to your site so I can see for myself what you are talking about. I use the attribute function on my site and users can add any number to cart.

OH, and now that I have 2 different sizes of the same product, where do I indicate stock levels for those product sizes?

I do not know. Perhaps somebody else can assist you with this one.

Thanks for the update.

Just to clarify for others that may have the same problem, this setting is found in the page used to create/update product details.
