However, bear in mind this alters the price of ALL units for that item, not just the 2nd-Nth unit(s), and takes a flat amount off the base price, so getting a 2nd item at 50% off would be equivalent to getting both items at 25% off, so you should determine the flat-amount price reduction accordingly -- e.g., if the item's base price is €5.00, a 25% discount would take €1.25 off per unit.

This help page explains our discount settings in more detail:

I want that if buyers buy 2 copies of product A, then the second is -50% e.g. 5€ + 2.5€

I don't want any of those:
Ax1 + Bx1(-50%)
Ax1(-50%) + Bx1(-50%)
Ax2(-50%)
Ax3(-50%)

This one is okay: Ax1 + Ax2(-50%)

It seems that I should use specific product instead of all cart items, right ?]]> E-junkie Discussions; brviceod http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5378/pg/0#post19386 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5378/pg/0#post19386 Wed, 17 Aug 2011 00:19:03 GMT
Product: All Cart Items
Discount Name: Half price 2nd item
Discount Code: [leave blank]
Expires: [blank]
Max. Use Count: 0
Discount: [half the item's price] - Flat
Applies to: Item Total
Min. Item Quantity: 2
Min. Item Total: 0.00

That way, when the buyer sets their first item's quantity to 2, the cart will automatically apply the discount. You would also need to enable "Let buyer edit quantity" in the product's settings. Note this method will only work with E-junkie Cart buttons, not Buy Now buttons.

When the buyer receives their download link, the number of Attempts you permit for that link will be multiplied by the quantity they ordered. You may wish to add instructions to the product's Email Message, explaining that if they bought an extra copy for a friend, they can just forward that email to their friend, so they can use the link in the email to obtain their own copy at no extra cost. In this case, you should probably also go to Seller Admin > Account Preferences and delete your Common Thank-you Email message template, so the buyer will only receive a single email for the product they purchased.]]> E-junkie Discussions; E-junkieGuru http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5378/pg/0#post19386 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5378/pg/0#post19386 Sun, 14 Aug 2011 14:40:39 GMT
About the discount for the second copy, I was rather thinking that the buyer would offer and thus buy it, like this: "buy one and get another one for half its price".
If the stamps are the same or if the buyer has to send the copy himself it doesn't matter much.
So is it possible to just buy a second copy at a discount price ?]]> E-junkie Discussions; jebo http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5378/pg/0#post19386 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5378/pg/0#post19386 Fri, 12 Aug 2011 02:09:48 GMT
You can create a discount code that the buyer could give to their friend to purchase another copy of your eBook, and perhaps offer that code as an "online coupon" in your thank-you page or email:
http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/help.discounts.htm

If you wanted the PDF Stamp to identify the friend rather than the original buyer, that friend would need to order the eBook themselves, since the name and email on the stamp is taken from the PayPal account details of the actual buyer of the file being stamped. If you provide a purchase link on the thank-you/download page for the original buyer to purchase an additional copy at a discount for their friend right away, that buyer's info would be stamped on the extra copy, rather than their friend's info, although the stamp would show a different Transaction ID.

You might also consider whether the buyer might resent being offered a discount to buy a copy for a friend when they didn't get a discount on their own, original purchase.

You can use our Updates feature to send previous buyers free download links for the latest edition of a product file:
http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/help.updates.htm

However, such Update links would not be able to stamp their downloads, since there is no checkout being performed to provide order data that would be stamped to the file. If you want to offer a free update that issues stamped files, you would need to create a discount code for the full price of the item, then send that code or a direct purchase link incorporating the code, which they would use to order a new copy of the product for free using our Free Checkout, and that would be able to provide checkout data to be stamped to the file.

Affiliate share commissions are calculated on the full price the buyer actually paid for the item, before PayPal takes their transaction fee out of the buyer's payment.]]> E-junkie Discussions; E-junkieGuru http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5378/pg/0#post19386 http://www.e-junkie.com/bb/topic/5378/pg/0#post19386 Thu, 11 Aug 2011 16:32:19 GMT
Is it possible to offer customers to buy a second copy of an e-book for a friend at a discount price ? if so will both PDF stamps be different ?
Is it possible to give a free update of the e-book to those who purchased it ?
Is the affiliate share based on the raw price or on the amount I perceive after PayPal’s fees ?

P.S. with this forum post it will the fourth time that I'm trying to get an answer to my questions (1 web form email + 2 direct emails). Are you trying to alienate potential customers so that they go to your competitors ? No there was nothing in my junk folder and before that I did receive a reply to another question sent from the site.]]> E-junkie Discussions; jebo
