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

What would be really useful is to have an option of shipping charge based
on weight... which has been suggested already.  BUT...  Brickbay could then
add a "weight per brick" field in their master catalog which would allow
the system to automagically calculate the weight of order!

That could be done BUT sellers sometimes list items that are not in the master
catalog.  It seems this feature wouldn't be of any use so I'm going to discard
it.  Thanks for the input!
