I use version 3.51a and I want to set up some really specific shipping options.

For the most part, I have flat rate shipping on everything - one price for everyone in the US, one price for everyone internationally.

But there are a few items that I ship which are so heavy that I need to create a higher shipping price just for those items, otherwise, I actually lose money on the sale.

So what I've done is set a shipping weight on those specific products at 5 pounds. none of the other products in the store have any weight listed.

then, I set up new shipping settings using weight as the determining factor. I did one for 4-6 pounds in the US and one for 4-6 pounds International.

I was hoping that since I have these certain items set at 5 pounds, when someone checks out, it would return the rate that I specified for 4-6 pounds.

But these rates aren't showing when I do a test run.

What am I doing wrong?!

Thanks all!
