    Xmas Shipping Dates

    Hi,

    just trying to come up with a "sexy" way of letting customer know that certain postal classes will not get there before Xmas.
    e.g. from 14th Dec Royal Mail Standard Parcel will not arrive before Xmas - they need to choose a better class of shipping.

    I know I could add comments in the shipping properties but I find most people don't read those comments. I was thinking of a Pop Up saying "Please be aware this class of shipping will not arrive before Xmas " or something.

    I've looked at the design of Checkout 1 and it seems to me that some trigger based around "SHIPPINGSELECT" variable that creates a small pop up might be a good way to go. But I'm no HTML programer so wondered if anyone had any ideas. Or maybe someone out there has already done this.

    Any advice greatly appriceated.

    I also want to use this solution for when I'm on holiday so that orders can still be taken but the customer is aware that it wont be processed until I get back.

    Cheers

    KISS - remove the options that won't get there in time for Christmas.

      We have just added the following text in the class of service field next to the drop down shipping choices, with the text being red and bold
      Since adding the first message we have seen a fair few people select the choices over the standard delivery.

      Class of Service: **To ensure pre christmas delivery may we suggest selecting either the 1st class or 48hr delivery option. We will of course still process and ship all orders but cannot give any guarantee.**

      And as of thursday night this will change to

      Class of Service: **As from Friday 15th December only those orders selecting the 48hr option will be guaranteed for arrival before Christmas, we will of course still process and ship all orders but cannot give any guarantee.**

                            Anybody wanting Mammoth Crocs (the furry ones) we don't list, get in touch as we may have some more due in. Selling like hot cakes, even shipping them back to the states (and then getting yanks whinging about the exchange rate!!!).
