Shipping FAQ
Can I use multiple shipping methods?
I don't need to charge a per item shipping...someone can order 1 product or
20 products and I charge the same amount - I want them to have the option of
choosing either standard or express and not be charged per item.
I want to charge $5 for the first item entered into the cart, and then $1 for each
additional item. What method should I use?
How do I set up shipping based on a percentage of the final sales price?
How do I add tax to shipping?
Can I use multiple shipping methods?
It's not possible to mix 'n' match domestic shipping methods but you can give
your customers a choice of carrier on checkout. From version 5.0 it is also
possible to use a different shipping method for domestic and international
orders by selecting from the drop down menu in the main admin settings.

Using weight based shipping, set every product a very low weight, (say 0.1).
Then set up your postal zones with only one rule per zone, which has a very
high max weight, (say 9999) and the cost as your shipping cost. On the admin
main page make sure "pack products together" is set.

Use weight based shipping and set every weight to 1 to make things easy.
Then in the postal zones section, set the rules so that a weight of 1 is $5, a
weight of 2 is $6 and for each 1 above the highest weight add an extra $1.
