I'm still trying to get this. I likethe BTD, but the NLD that I state
above sucks.
I need some function that will discount the shipping as the number of
lots increases, but won't have funny humps.
I'm thinking S&H = $7.40 * BTD + (lots won * ($7.40 * BTD) / 20)
or S&H = (1 + n/20) (7.40 * BTD), where n is the number won.
I've summarized how the shipping would work at
http://128.206.234.201/eBay/LEGO/S&Hdata.html if anyone cares to look.
Are there any problems with this that I am overlooking?
