Products that need to be purchased in a box of 6

I need to put up 11 different teas and they need to be purchased in a box of 6 teas. This box can have any of the the teas. ie 6 packs of one tea, 2 packs of one tea and 4 packs of another tea, maybe 1 pack of 6 different tea or any combination

My issue is how to do this - if I put all of the teas on as individual products how do I make sure they only buy in combinations of 6 to make the box or if I make it one product "6 Boxes of tea of your choice" how do I give them all the options of packs above.

I thought of controlling it with shipping weight but can't work out a way as I already other products available and have used manual shipping to set postage.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated :)

Thanks

Hi,

The solution will probably be to :
- Set the weight of your products to 1 kg
- Create your shipping methods regarding your number of products, for example for your 2 first shipping method you'll have to set the minimum/maximum weight to 5.99 and 6.1 and for your second shipping method 11.99 and 12.1 kg.

Thanks I got that to work, but if they don't put in 6 boxes this error comes up

*The cart items combined weight is too big for all the possible shipping methods

Can this be changed to "You need to purchase 6 boxes to complete this order - Thank you

Can you please give me where I would find the error message so I can change it

Thanks
