| I'm trying to give someone who lives near free shipping over a certain order
total but I tried two ways and both fail. First I tried to create a shipping
method for it, but I can't seem to make it conditional on either region or
password to unlock it. Is there any other way that I forgot to think about?
Next I tried to give this guy a coupon that would correspond to the cost of shipping,
but that also didn't work.
See picture. Why is this part blank? That's weird. Why can you only make
a percentage discount conditional and not a fixed discount?
Suggestion: Allow fixed discounts to be conditional as well.

Hello Teup,
Not posting that I think your suggestion is invalid or that a coupon that would
just be "free shipping" (and conditional) isn't a nice idea.
It would seem like you could deal with this now though in 2 ways.
1. Do create a Domestic shipping method that is free over X amount. If you keep
it Domestic I assume it might not get used by others before you remove it (after
they place an order) if that is the plan. I posted some ways to do free shipping
over X here: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1072145
2. Make an agreement and have them checkout with one of your Manual Invoicing
options, and don't charge for shipping.
Cheers,
Cosy

Thanks for your suggestions. I guess I didn't really explain the situation
properly; I would like to offer free shipping on any future orders that may come
from this buyer (and ideally, all buyers in this town). There's not a current
order yet that I want to have it for.
I think I will create a domestic shipping method with a minimum order, as you
suggested, and put in the description that it's only available for buyers
in my town and the next town. Not ideal, but I can at least try it and evaluate
after some time.
I hope this missing coupon feature will be added, as well as an option to offer
a shipping method based on password and/or on region. I'm sure I am not the
only one who for whatever reason would want to offer a shipping method on a selective
or individual basis.
