Shipping charges question

[rico]

I have set up 3 products:



(a) the regularly priced widget for $9.95

(b) Set of 2 widgets for $14.95

(c) a Free widget for $0.00



And we have the following special offer:



"Buy the set of 2 widgets for $14.95 + $2.95.s/h. If you order today, you can get a 3rd widget to the order for FREE, just pay an additional $2.95 s/h."



The rule is that you can only order the Free widget if you purchased the set of 2. I guess we'll have to manually enforce that rule, but I digress. I need to figure out a way to apply the first s/h charge if you purchase the set of 2 widgets and apply ANOTHER s/h charge if you opt for the free widget. I tried a flat charge per product, but its not ideal b/c if they were to buy several regularly priced widgets (even though it costs more), we would only want to charge them once for s/h. So is it possible to apply a flat charge PER PRODUCT in some cases and a flat charge PER ORDER in other cases?



Thanks in advance.

Go into Seller Admin > Cart Shipping Settings, set the Cost of a Small Box and Regular Box both to 2.95, and leave everything else set to 0.00. If you will only ship to buyers in the USA, select United States in the Shipping Destinations list. Click Next to save changes and proceed to the Shipping Rules screen, but you can just click Back to Admin from there.



Configure your single-widget product with Shipping enabled, set it with a weight of 0.00 to be packaged in a Regular Box, with a capacity of however many units you would ship for $2.95. Configure your "2-pack" product the same way. Configure your free product the same way, but packaged in a Small Box with capacity of 1. Note that these package/capacity settings are strictly for shipping-fee calculation purposes; you can actually pack and ship your items however you wish.
