Any experience with Wordpress e-commerce for shipping?

[ryanlesser]

OK, so after ages of just setting aside leftovers to sell "later", I am finally getting my online shop in order. I use Wordpress as my CMS and have recently installed WP E-Commerce. It seems sophisticated enough but I am finding one thing either confusing or missing. If you have this same setup, let me know if you have advice please:

- I am not sure how to set it up so that there is a base price for the cost and shipping of a tube and then on top of it, additional fees for added posters. For example, if it costs 7.00 to ship a single poster in a single tube from Providence to Portland, but an additional 1.00 to throw another poster in the same tube... how do I make that happen?

I did not see a competing WP commerce plugin that had the same reputation as this one, but if there is a better one... I am all ears.

Thanks in advance!

I believe you should find an answer into the WP E-commerce forum if it exists or into the Wordpress forums.

There isnt a way...you have to do it by weight if you want to offer this. I used to use it, hated it and went back to bigcartel...too many problems.

Unfortunately WP is particularly bad for online shops unless you're Paypal's cart. Even then it may be an issue if you want something advanced.
