    Default Best way to separate pricing for singles vs. dozens?

    I need to have different prices whether the customer buys 1-12 or by the dozen.

    Since oscmax doesn't have quantity price breaks, Is the best way to implement this by creating separate product pages, one explicitly stating it's by the dozen? This can get rather confusing with a lot of items. I thought about putting it in attributes, but I already have a few different attributes on everything, that would just create more confusion i think.

    Is there a simpler way to do this?

    You could install the quantity price breaks mod, and that would allow you to do what you need. Other than that, there is not a good way to implement this that will not cause customer confusion.

    I have added it several times without any issues, make sure you use the one for SPPC.

    I have the Price Breaks 1.11.3 mod installed, but need some help with tuning it:

    * The mod will gross up the price of the single block with sales tax for those in the applicable tax zone, but will not gross up the price for the multiple blocks.
    I don't mind the grossing up, as long as it is consistent across the quantities.

    * The quantity price break table will only show in the product_info.tpl.php (individual product) view, but not in the index_products.tpl.php (category) view, the products_new.tpl.php or bestselling_products.tpl.php.
    It is possible to click the "Buy Now" link from bestselling_products or products_new or index_products and bypass the product_info page where the price breaks are shown.

    I don't mind having a piece of text in the product description for the pages that do not show the price breaks that says "click here to see price breaks".
