khinester Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hello,I want to create a product that is free of charge and let the user just pay a fixed shipping fee.I tried setting up the shipping range etc... but to no avail as when I make the price 0.00 and then go to the checkout shipping page it says shipping Free!Whats the best way to do this?Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CYTechnologies Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 What is the range you setup? Also, the carrier you setup, is it specific to any zones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CYTechnologies Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Is the carrier setup to do a flat rate? or a rate based on price/weight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khinester Posted August 28, 2009 Author Share Posted August 28, 2009 I tried both flat rate and rate based on price/weight and on both occasions on the checkout I had delivery free!Here is my procedure:1) Add product2) Optionsa) free sample full version3) set price to 0.004) Shippinga) Handling Charges - 0.00 Fees - carrier 1(Royal Mail)Africa 15Asia 15Europe 5Oceania 155) Price Rangesa) Royal Mail 0 to 5 Parcel Force 5 to 200--The way I did it was to make the free sample price 0.01 and the price for Shipping I made 4.99 so the total at the end is 5.00But still bugs me that I don't know how to make a product that has no cost and only charge shipping, if someone can give me a step-by-step how-to it will really help me out.

CYTechnologies Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 So it works with 0.01 cents?It makes me wonder if in the code if the cost is < 0 it just skips shipping, I will check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
