Problem setting up shipping through other companies

Hey all. Gotta a little problem I could use some help on. I am trying to set up shipping so that you don't require them to choose a shipping method. We sell restaurant equipment and as far as shipping is concerned, we ship through a national carrier who the customer actually pays.

How can i make it so that my customers can skip shipping without making my products virtual? We ship anywhere in the world, so location is not a problem. Just want to skip the shipping process all together. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I think one could setup a table rate as "0" and rename what is presented as F.O.B. some location....
I believe what is presented as default is "Best Way"

Re: Problem setting up shipping through other companies

Excellent! Thanks for the advice! I got it to change to say FOB, but I don't want it to say any price. More like "Call for shipping quote". Any way to change that to anything else besides a number?

Re: Problem setting up shipping through other companies

Ok...I've gotten everything the way i need it...sort of. I was able to get into the code and manipulate the php script enough to change the text to call for quote. However, it also changed the in-store pick up to call for quote as well as it seems to loop through the database. Any ideas on how to change just one shipping option if you have 2 options available?
