Add weight of packaging

    Is it possible to add the weight of packaging before making the shipping calculation ?

    For example – if I send 1 book, the shipping cost should be calculated on the weight of the book + the weight of the packaging. But if I send 2 books, the shipping cost is the weight of 2 books + the same weight of the packaging.

    If I add the weight of the packaging to the product weight on the product page then the the total weight is overestimated if two or more copies of the book are added to the basket.

    If it’s not possible to do this in the current version, would it be possible to add a “Packaging Weight” on the APG Shipping tabs of Shipping Zones ? This could function similar to the handling fee or additional fee categories, and be added to the total sum of the product weights.

    There’s no option for this, sorry, try to use the additional cost for this.

    Kind regards.

    Thanks for replying. Additional cost doesn’t really address this problem – it’s a question of the weight of the packaging, not its cost.

    Does anyone else know of a workaround ?
