    Default Cheaper shipping for higher purchases

    Hi all the gurus hanging out here. I would like to seek your expertise regarding PHP.

    Example:

    Im currently using flat rates with 5 clone flat rates.

    I have a flat rate call "fiveflat".

    For this flat rate, every purchase below $100 will be charge $20.
    For every purchase above $100 will be charge $15 instead.

    How should I change the coding for this cloned flat rates?

    I would like to say thank you and appreciate any advice given =)

    Oh I see.

    You should use the Zone Rates method, by Price.

    Zone 1

    10:20,20:20,30:20,40:20,50:20,60:20,70:20,80:20,90:20,100:15,110:15,

    See if that sequence works for Zone 1 and try buying different products to see how the module calculates shipping.
    Cheers!

    If you only have the two charges:
    <= 100 is $20.00
    > 100 is $15.00

    you could then use the definition on the Zone Rate as:
    100:20.00,1000:15

    Both configurations can work, this one is just a little more to the point ...

    I cheated and tested it first for giggles ...

    It just looked like way too much duplication in there so thought either you were trying to do something odd here that I was missing ... or perhaps you had not tried to consolidate things a bit ...

    Now we are all brillant and you are in charge of Zone Rate shipping module support ...
