Tiered pricing allows sellers to offer their items at different prices depending on the quantity that a buyer purchases. For example, a seller may sell a part at 10 cents if the buyer only buys one, but would sell it at 8 cents if the buyer buys 100 or more. You (the seller) can specify for every item in your inventory the quantity and price break for every level of the discount (up to 3 levels). |
Example #1: |
Quantity: 1,000 Price Each: $0.10 If the buyer buys quantity 100 or more, price is $0.09 each If the buyer buys quantity 250 or more, price is $0.08 each If the buyer buys quantity 500 or more, price is $0.07 each In this example the seller is using all 3 tiered pricing levels. |
Example #2: |
Quantity: 2 Price Each: $100.00 If the buyer buys quantity 2 or more, price is $75.00 each
In this example the seller is using only 1 tiered pricing level. |
Sale: |
If the seller puts an item on sale that has tiered pricing on it, the additional discount prices will also be put on sale so an item that looks like this:
Quantity: 1,000 will look like this after the seller puts this item on a 50% off sale:
Quantity: 1,000 |
