I have a client that wants to have 2 sets of multiple pricing for some products. IT seems like attaching the quantity pricing to a custom field.
For example:
product abc
3 day - 0-99 $.50 100-499 $.40 500-999 $.30
6 day - 0-99 $.40 100-499 $.20 500-999 $.10
3,6 day in this example i guess could be SIZES or something as well.
has anyone run into this kind of an issue? and if so HOW was it solved?
I assume 2 child products - each with quantity pricing
We are already using child products for colors such as Gold, Silver, Bronze. SO we would have to MULTIPLY the number or child products within child products at that point.. what a mess!! there has to be another solution. :( maybe a different cart is in order.. Ive used VM Since it came out so it wouldn't be an easy decision.
BUT with that in mind does anyone have any suggestions on how else this can be done OR what carts COULD support this kind of a setup? here is an example:

Experiment with vm2.9.9 - soon to be VM3 - Max has done a huge amount of work on the custom fields side - a lot simpler
