quantity break pricing

[gofer123]

Hi,
I've tried to find this in the forums but can't find what I want.
I have a product that has a price for 1
same product with price for 12
same product with price for 20
I have added "add new price" but nothing shows up, what am I doing wrong.
Cheers

Hi,
After much trial & error I've found out how to use the custom field option for different pricing for different qty's.
I've created a drop down where you choose the qty you want and the appropriate price, that works fine but I can't figure out how to have a single qty price showing in the cart window. At the moment if I set a price for the single item it adds the price to the larger qty price.
Any ideas?
cheers

Don't use customs for that. It is easier than that.
Enter the initial product price and set the quantity range (eg 0-1) and Save.
Click on New price button, add the  BASE PRICE for the new range and save. (the base price can be the same as for the single product price, and you can later override this.
Then enter the quantity range, eg 2-5 then Save
And so on.

Thanks very much Kelvyn, that sounds a whole better way of doing it.
