Combined shipping for multiple quantities of same item.

[bin2500]

I have some Jack Daniels glasses listed, $5.99 with $5.90 shipping. If someone wants to buy more than one I don't want to charge them $5.90 shipping for each, I want to offer them  a discount on shipping.

Example:

I costs me $5.00 to ship 1 glass from AZ to NM  and $8.00 to ship 4.

I would like to pass that shipping price on in my listing so the buyer doesn't have to pay $24 in shipping cost. I mean if they want the glasses they will pay, but I'm sure the shipping cost will deter many buyers, which in turn means little or no sales.

Anyone out there know how to go about this?

Thanks!

When you set up your listing, you first select FIXED PRICE.

You enter the Buy It Now price, the Best Offer option (if you have it enabled and want to use it).

Enter the Quantity.

If you want to enter a flat shipping pricefor 1 item, you can do that, and then enter the cost for each additional item.

Use calculated shipping and in your shipping preferences, set up either calculated shipping rules or check off that you want ebay to combine the weights for multiple items. Shipping preferences are in account/seller preferences

One problem with that method is that the calculator doesn't change the box size, just the weight.
