Not Telling
Hi workuseonly04,
We have a similar setup where we charge shipping based on the dollar amount ordered for most of the items we sell. ex.
$10-$99 $5.95 shipping
$$100-$200 $6.95 shipping
etc.
Here is how our setup works.
Customer calls to place an order. We enter the items into MOM that the customer wants to buy. If 1 of the items is a large item that we charge actual shipping for we look up the cost to ship that item in our UPS rates book or go to USPS's website to calculate shipping. We then figure what the cost of the other small items is. If the small items cost totals less than $99 then we charge $5.95 plus the actual cost of the shipping for the large item. So say the large item costs $15.00 to ship. We then manually enter $20.95 into the shipping field. This all sounds like a lot of work that would tick off a customer, but it really doesn't take long at all. Our phone people are very good at it. I hope that makes sense. Sorry if it is confusing.

Hi, I want to try this, but I just have a question, how do you calculate the price the if you don't know the package's Dimensions, like I am selling clothing, if a customer order 30 shoes with 10 t-shirt, and want to know the shipping charge for the order with shoe boxes, and without shoe boxes? Also, where do you get the UPS rates book? Can you upload it? Thanks.
