Extra weight per product

    Hi!

    I have a website that sells yarns. People can buy yarns per gram. So If you buy 300 grams, the weight of the yarn obviously is 300 grams, if 350 then 350 and so on.

    The problem is: The starting weight is 40 grams (the cone on which the yarn is being spun). So, the first gram of each product actually weighs 41 grams, and every addition gram weighs 1 gram.

    Is there any way in which I can implement this on my website? Because weight based shipping should ofzourse be based on the actual weight of what is being sent- not of what they bought… Packaging per product is imporant. Especialy when people buy a lot of cones with a small amount of yarns on it..

    If you / anybody can help me in any way, you would be a lifesaver.

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    The closest you can do with the plugin is to “shift” your weight ranges by the packaging weight. For example,

    before:
    0-100g => $10
    100-200g => $20

    after:
    0-60g => $10
    60-160g => $20

    That counts for a single 40-gram cone.

    If you need it to be checking each item in the cart instead of the total order weight, check our advanced shipping plugin. I have set up a quick example that you can start with.
