Newbie needs help - 2 prices

[Shamshop]

Hello and thanks for a great shopping cart - I have spent hours looking for this and probably cant see the wood for the trees.

I have ver 1.3.8a and my problem is :-

I have a price / quantity for a SINGLE item which works well.

In same product I want a price / quantity for same item when purchased by the CASE. (case being as manufacturer sends - unopened boxes.

I have looked and searched online and the manual - maybe I am looking in the wrong spot or not looking at it as I should.

Thanks in advance

Ron

Look at "quantity discounts". These can be done either at the base product level or at the attribute level.

Thanks for the fast reply -

I think I went there -

My request is in 1 product

BUY this item say 1 bottle incremented as a normal cart price

or

BUY by the case which might be 4 or 6 or 12 depending on product.

I could do as a seperate product but wanted on same product listing.

Set the discount quantity at whatever the case size is for the product. If they order more than that, they get the case price.

If you want to limit the case price to only full case quantities, you might make a dropdown with the individual quantities and prices:
()1 ($1.00)
()2 ($2.00)
()3 ($3.00)
()4 ($4.00)
()5 ($5.00)
()Case of 6 ($4.95)
()2 Cases ($9.50)
etc.

This is not really ideal as it limits flexibility a bit.
Another method might be to simply have a two-choice option set:

()Single unit ($1.00)
()Case of 6 ($4.95)

and then they can pick the quantity of either singles or cases in the add to cart Qty box.
They can only order singles or cases, not some of each in one go, but I don't see that as a real problem. If they really want 1 1/2 cases, they can add to cart with a case and then again with a few singles. The two will stay separate in the order totaling process.
