Using Flat Rate Shipping Excluding a Few Items

[OptiNut]

I am currently running v 1.39 with no shipping mods.

I am wanting to set a flat rate shipping charge but there are just a couple categories of items I will need to leave on a calculated rate.

How can I set it up to where most products will just bring up the flat shipping charge while specified items will show the UPS quoted rates. I was running USPS and UPS calculated rates and have switched to flat but need to make that small change.

What happens when you have some Products that need the Flat Rate flat shipping and some that need the USPS and/or UPS?

When you say Flat Rate ... is that a Flat Rate per order? Or, a Flat Rate per Product quantity?

I have this same question - Can some products be flat rate while others are calculated? Flat Rate per item with additional parameters.

More importantly is there a mod that works in the following way - either free or $$ - USPS ONLY.

**note - FR - Flat Rate, E - Envelope, MB - Medium Box, LB - Large Box, FC - First Class, Priority = Both, Priority &/or Express based upon weight (as opposed to Flat Rate).

Each Product Listings take two shipping variables;
1. Package Size Option (FRE, FRMB, FRLB, PARCEL, FC) (not required)
2. Weight (required). I understand that volume is not an option at this point.

Case 1; Package Size Option is chosen (by Admin) & This is the only item in the customer's cart =
Package Size Option will be the only shipping option available to the customer.

Case 2; Package Size Option is NOT chosen (by Admin) & This is the only item in the customer's cart =
Two shipping options available; Priority Mail & Parcel Post.

If their is more than 1 item in the customer's cart >>

Case 1; if - 2 up to 3 FRE items - shipping will be calculated by weight - the customer will be able to choose; Parcel Post, Priority, or Priority FR Medium Box.

Case 2; if more then 4 FRE items - shipping will be calculated by weight - customer will choose from; Parcel, Priority, or FR Large Box.

Case 3; if - 1 FRMB item + Case 1 - customer will choose from; Parcel, Priority or FRLB.

Case 4; if - 1 FRMB item + anything other than Case 1 - customer will choose from; Parcel or Priority.

Wow - Yes, I just did it :). Just figuring that out hurt my brain lol.

If I had ALL year, I might be able to make this work. But no such luck. Thanks for any help/insights anybody can offer.
