Can or cannot do?

Hi,

I have looked through forums and cant find specific answer for my questions so i ask first before i waste to much time on something that cannot be done.

I am in Sydney Australia and am trying to use the Auspost plugin.

My customer only has 1 posting method with 2 options.

Express post within Sydney $10 (upto 2 items) shoe box size and weight

Express post outside sydney $20 (upto 2 items) shoe box size and weight

Any more than 2 items get processed in multiples of 2.
ie 3 items in syd = $20
ie 4 items in syd = $20
ie 5 items in syd = $30
ie 6 items in syd = $30
ie 7 items in syd = $40
He has been doing all manually to date.

Can the Auspost plugin work this out or does it need to calculate using a different method. My client is flexible on how to do things.



Also......He already has a merchant account with a big bank (NAB). At the moment he gets the card details and keys them into his swipe machine on his customer counter.

What is the best plugin to use to get info to his merchant account and automate the whole process?

Thanks

I think that the best in your case would be to use the manual shipping method. You would set a weight of 1 kg per product.
Then, you would create several shipping methods with restrictions on weight and post code:

for 0 to 2.5kg and post code for sydney => $10
for 2.5 to 4.5kg and post code for sydney => $20
for 4.5 to 6.5kg and post code for sydney => $30
for 6.5 to 8.5kg and post code for sydney => $40
for 0 to 2.5kg and post code not for sydney => $20
for 2.5 to 4.5kg and post code not for sydney => $40
for 4.5 to 6.5kg and post code not for sydney => $60
for 6.5 to 8.5kg and post code not for sydney => $80

The correct shipping method will then be displayed on the checkout based on the weight of the cart and the address of the user.
