    Default Additional product fees based on State

    I have a store running Zen Cart 1.3.7 and I need to add an additional fee to certain products if the order is purchased in a specific state (in this case, Oregon). I have looked through the forum threads and researched add-ons to accomplish this, but have had no luck so far figuring out how to do it.

    Is there a way to apply fees to certain products in a store if the buyer lives in a specific state?

    Many thanks in advance for any light that anyone can shed on this issue!

    I have realized that another way to accomplish this would be to have a different set of prices altogether for a specific state (versus an additional fee).

    Does anyone know of an easy way to set up pricing based on state?

    Thanks!

    I expect your second idea would be immensely harder to implement. Logic to work in checkout (or shoppingcart) and add a fee based on criteria would be much more limited in scope of code touched. Look in the wiki for discussion of BOGO and similar cart content/total manipulation (in Developers API Tutorials).

    Thanks, I suppose you're right! It seems like this must be a fairly common situation, but I'm having difficulty finding any info on how to tackle it - I'll look into BOGO. Thanks again for the suggestion, I'll keep at it...

    Note: a direct search for BOGO won't work, but BOGOF will. The wiki is probably the best resource for this info.
