We use a fixed shipping price and we want to show the price of products with Tax and shipping price included.
Tried Virtuemart and Joomshopping and this feature seems to lack of importance, but for us and many companies in our sector this is a must, the price without the shipping included is useless for our shop.

Is it possible?

Another doubt about your component, I really liked it compared to the other 2 mentioned, if we buy the Business Edition we pay once for it or we have to renew (pay again) it after some time?

Thanks

Like VM or joomshopping, hikashop's shipping methods are for all the products in the cart. So the price of the shipping methods is for all the items in the cart.

Now, if the price of shipping is constant based on the weight or the price of the product, it would be possible to edit the view files of the product page to display the price with shipping...

( for example, suppose that the shipping price is 10€ per kilo ), you could easily edit the file quantity of the view product via the menu Display->Views and add the code:
echo 'Price with shipping: '.$this->currencyHelper->format($price->price_value_with_tax+$this->row->product_weight*10,$price->price_currency_id);

thanks for your quick answer.

Ill try to specify the case:

1 product:
15 kg orange = price + (4%tax) + 6.5€ (always the same shipping price for all products)

However we dont define weights we just mention them in the product name, we do it as separate products:
Category: Orange
Product 1: 15 kg oranges
Product 2: 20 kg oranges

The problem we encounter is the price is show with the 4% tax (fruit tax) but without the shipping price (6.5€), and even more complicated the transport fee itself has an 18% tax (IVA for Spain)

So if you could tell me at least a way to edit the price show it would be great, or how will you deal with this, thanks.

You could edit the file quantity of the view product via the menu Display->Views and add the code:
echo 'Price with shipping: '.$this->currencyHelper->format($price->price_value_with_tax+6.5,$price->price_currency_id);

That will display the price with shipping (you can place it in the file where you need it...before or after the price or even in place of the price).

Then, you can handle the shipping prices with the normal shipping methods.
set a weight of 1 for all your products and create several shipping methods:
from 0.5 to 1.5 => 6.5
from 1.5 to 2.5 => 13
etc...
You can also specify a specific tax category on the shipping methods.
