Force showing prices with Tax Excluded for all users?!


Recommended Posts

The pricing that shows on the store is sooo messed up, somehow.

 

For example, if I do a search for a specific product I get this as search result:

 

http://goo.gl/p9iHPJ

 

It shows that product as $63.44

 

However, that product is priced at $89.99 with a Specific Price set to discount $30 off of that (why does it say that "the discount is applied after the tax"? why would I ever apply a discount after the tax?!).

 

So now it shows this weird price of $63.44, but if you click on More link and get to the product page:

 

http://goo.gl/1deRQl

 

It shows the price properly at $59.99 ($89.99 - $30 discount)

 

What in the world?!!

 

Why can't it show that price consistently all across the pages, on search results page too?

 

How do I do this?

 

I went into customer groups, set all 3 groups to show prices with tax excluded, and still, if I am logged in as admin and switch to the front-end of the store I see prices including tax.

 

It somehow shows (for the product above) that $63.44 price on the product page for a second, until the page loads, and then something in javascript changes it to correct pricing of $59.99.

 

What is going on here?

 

No other cart does this in North America, so why in the world would Prestashop force this view on me? Taxes are usually added and calculated at the very end, during the checkout process, not while viewing the products.

 

How can I turn this off for all users, admin or not, and on all pages? I just want it to show a price without any tax included, anywhere... until the customer gets to checkout.

 

Ugh, so frustrating, like the developers of this cart are UK based or something...

 

Thanks!

I'm having the same problem here I think, my products are being shown with tax included which is not good when you have to compete with prices here in the USA. It's only in the cart that you can see the separation of the product price and the sales tax.

I thought I was doing something wrong but I can see now that something is going on. I hope you get a reply from PrestaShop when they see it's more that just one person having the same problem.

This is actually even worse than I thought...

 

If I have an item whose price is set to $59.99, and then I add a Specific Price discount of $15 (see attached), somehow the final price that shows up not only on Search Results but also on New Arrivals tab on the homepage is $46.72, instead of $59.99 - $15 = $44.99

 

What in the world... and how is this even calculated?

 

Who came up with this logic?

 

In the attachment it says that the discount is applied after the tax... again, WHY?! Taxes are usually added AT THE VERY END of the transaction in the checkout process, not as the first thing even before a discount on a product price is applied.

 

I am using bootstrap-default template (completely out of the box, unedited) on the latest Prestashop, 1.6.0.9 I believe.

 

Will somebody please take a look at this?

 

Because I will keep bumping this topic until someone does... as this is a serious issue messing up the pricing and affecting sales on a major live site at the moment with no solution in sight.
