There is a facility for post & packing for each item however this can be expensive and over charging if a customer wishes to buy more than one article or they want express delivery the charge would not be enough! I have managed to negotiate this problem by having a sales category - Postage Options. Most items do not have a p&p charge included but the item carries a note to the effect 'Don't forget to choose your postage option'. This enables customers to benefit from postage discounts on multiple purchases and it works!! Visit the site and see for yourself. I hope that this helps.

It has encouraged at least one customer to buy in multiple rather than one of one and it appears to have stimulated more visits to the site. Certainly the activity has increased since the shopping cart was introduced, early days yet but very pleasing. Long time coming but worth the wait, well done and thanks.
