Hi,

I've been thinking on how best to design this feature where shipping would be
automatically calculated upon checkout and so far came up with the following
option for sellers.  Sellers could input a combination of the below 4:

A) Base shipping fee
B) % of grand total
C) 5 slots to input if grand total is greater than $X.XX, shipping is $Y.YY
D) If grand total is > $X.XX, shipping is free

Anyway, I'd like to hear some input on this before it is implemented.  Any
thoughts?  Thanks,

Dan
