Shipping costs related to category

Does anyone know how to do the following :

Flat rate shipping costs (no zone differences): €5 (I can do this with the flat fee module)
Order value above €50 have free shipping (no zone differences): ( I can do this in the free shipping module)
but
if a product is chosen out of category X and the total ordered value is not above $50, a different fee applies (see my little explanation below)

If your total order value is below EURO 50 your shipping will have a € 5 flat fee, anywhere in the world.
The flat fee does NOT apply for 12" records (LP's and maxi-singles) and mugs.
These will have to be posted as parcel and therefor have a shipping fee (regardless of number of records) of € 10 for Europe and € 15 for all countries outside of Europe.
These fees only apply for all orders under € 50.

I'm in the dark how to do this.:wacko:

Re: Shipping costs related to category

Well, I found out dat CEON's advanced shipping module does what I need. So after some consideration (pricy), I bought this module. Installed without problems and most of the configuration was easy. I encountered one little problem so contacted CEON several times but did not get any reply. I today surfed around and found out that the owner/writer of CEON, Conor Kerr passed away very recently which is tragic to hear. My thoughts go out to his family and friends.

I have no idea if CEON was an one-man enterprise or more people know enough about the configuration to help me, and others for that matter with CEON products?

I hope this isn't a sick Joke!!!! I also hope it isn't true. Seems like it was only last week I was having a discussion with him.

If true, a tragic loss. I only hope he knew how much and how many people appreciated his work.

Pricey? You're not really serious are you?! It's solved your problems for less than a couple of hours pay for a quality developer. A bargain I would say!

Absolutely nothing I'd joke about. I got it here http://www.canvas101.co.uk/blog/?p=6. It''s sad enough.

@Torvista: pricy is relative I know, but I''m setting up a shop to sell a personal collection and nothing commercial. So no big business and then $80 is a relatively high price.
