"new shipping idea"


          

how bad is this since i cant get shipping to work on paypal what if i just included the shipping cost in to the price of the treats?

1/4lb normal 3.20 and with shipping i would put 9.15 and at the top of my webpage would be a notice letting customer know shipping is already included in the cost...???????????????

I think you'll be chopping off your own foot if you do it that way... Why? because nobody is going to notice that the shipping is included, they're just going to see that you are exhorbitantly expensive.

What cart are you using???

I can't help you then, I'm not familiar with Paypal's cart.

Good luck with it.

Are you going to the right section in paypal?
Login to your account
click merchant services
click shipping calculator
You can set up your shipping there.

I set my shipping up as 1 price for however many ordered (1 - 24 pieces)to a single destination. For orders of 25 or more, starts wholesale pricing.
I haven't gotten to many orders for a single unit since then.
I'm averaging 4 per order now.

okay than maybe i am confused because there are the two things that i have done

1 set it up by the weight
2 when creating the button used a flat rate amount...

neither are working, i sell my treats by the lb...so what do i need to do here for shipping?

From shipping calculator
Set up domestic shipping Click: Start
Which regions do you ship to? Select and add states or All states and territories
What are shipping rates based on?
Total order amount
Total order weight
Total item quantity
click the total order by weight button
Then break out your calculator

Have fun
