Hi,
I'm sure this is answered somewhere, but I can't find it despite my best googleage. I have a product and a standard shipping package. We will only be using one package for shipping ever. I can fit up to 4 products in this package but will use the same package for any number below that. So basically there will be a base price for a single unit to ship, some incremental amount based on the weight of the next 3 products, and then it will roll over again for the 5th product.

Since all the products weigh the same, shipping charge should go something like this:

1 product : $10
2 products : $10 + $2
3 products : $10 + $4
4 products : $10 + $6
5 products : $16 + $10
6 products : $16 + $10 + $2

...

I'm assuming this is some workflow-ng thing, but the base price for 1 product will come from USPS or UPS. I don't know if it will even be possible to get the incremental cost from UPS so we'll probably have to figure that out by hand and just suck up the difference if there is one.

Ideas?

Mark

Sorry to reply to my own problem, but the lion's share of my issue was solved from this thread: http://www.ubercart.org/comment/24460/Re_Shipping_calculations_incorrect
