final price is incorrect every time. Please help

[redgirl]

I have put in a price of $49.00 for an product attribute and its adding 31% to this price totaling $64.18. I have no tax or shipping costs. I have tested this with 2 other prices and the same thing happens.

I am new to this cart but feel I have done everything right & have search for anywhere this field could be effected. Please help

Did you perhaps mark this Product as Priced by Attribute YES when it should be NO?

NOTE: Products that are Priced by Attribute YES means that the price cannot be made for display purposes without building the display price from all of the attributes by taking the lowest priced Option Value in each Option Name and adding them together ...

thanks for your reply. After I posted my message, I came across another post which related to my problem (that didn't come up in my original searches) so I was able to fix the problem. It was the currency - it was marked up at 1.31 for AU dollars!

But your post is helpful as now I am not sure if the way I setup the product is correct. I have created a product but entered the price in the size option as there are 3 sizes, each at a different price. Is this okay or do you think this will cause me problems?

If you have Product Price as 0.00 and the Attributes hold the real price for the sizes ... then just mark it as Priced by Attribute and the lowest price in the sizes will be the display price ...

If you have a Product price ... plus the sizes do or do not have prices then mark it as NOT Priced by Attribute ...
