• Example 1: CD Store
  • What I want: I want to charge customers $3.00 per order, and also an additional $1.00 per CD. However, I also sell some double CDs and some boxed sets, so those should have an additional shipping charge associated with them.
  • What I fill in: I put in "3.00" as the Base Cost and "1.00" as the Default Amount Per Item. For each product that should have a shipping cost of more than $1.00, I have to make sure that I set its Shipping Price on the page where I enter or edit product information.
• Example 2: Furniture Store
  • What I want: I want to charge people 50 cents per pound of furniture that I ship them.
  • What I fill in: I can leave the Base Cost blank (or set it to "0"), and then I put in "0.50" as the "Weight Charge".
• Example 3: Store with Many Different Kinds of Products
  • What I want: I want to charge people $4.00 for each order and then an additional amount per item that is different for each product.
  • What I fill in: Just the Base Cost as "4.00". Leave everything else blank. When I add new products to my store, I just have to make sure I fill in the "Shipping Price" field for each of them.
