tier prices / configurable Products - doesnt work - magento

im using Magento 1.8.0.0.
Im offering configurable Products with different Flavours
For Example:
My products is available in Vanilla and chocolate.
1x item 50€
2x items 45€
When the customer choose 2x Vanilla - he get the Price of 45€/Piece. But if he choose 1x Vanilla and 1x Chocolate he have to pay 50/Piece.
Can anyone tell me - how i can fix this Problem?

Tier price was made for selling packs of simple products.
I suggest you to take a look at Shopping cart price rules.
They are more flexible in configuration.

Magento: Best Product type for Camera Kits

I am developing a magento site. In this site I have products for camera kits. In one kit the product can have camera body, camera lens etc. These products when sold in group will have lesser price when sold individually.
I am thinking of "Grouped Products" in magento will suit my case the best.
But how to set the discounted price when purchased from a group?
Also I have to import product from another site so I will be creating all the products programmatically. So any suggestions for the discounted price. Also my approach for grouped products is right or wrong?
Grouped products are just a way to sell multiple products on one product page.
You could use a bundle product. When creating a bundle you can choose if the price will be calculated as the sum of all items or a fixed price.
I see two options for you:
Use the fixed price and create one bundle for each camera kit. The bundle will have an option "body" and an option "lens", each option has only one product selection and is marked as "required" (i.e. you don't have a choice)
Use dynamic price and a special price, then you can add different body and lens selections with different prices from which the customer can choose, but can give a discount of for example 10% on the bundle.

Stock options when using a bundled configurable product

In a magento store we have a product configured as follows:
Shoe offer (bundled product)
Black shoe ( configurable product )
Size 1 (simple product)
Size 2 (simple product)
So we have a bundled product which consists out of a configurable product who has various simple products.
What we expect to happen is that when someone orders a single Size 2 shoe via the shoe offer that the stock of the 'Size 2' is reduced by one. This doesn't happen. We configured all products to manage stock, so we are wondering if this is possible or that we have to come up with our own solution.
We are using Magento 1.6.0.
Thanks for the help in advance.
We have solved this an other way by removing the configurable product out of the configuration. So the bundle product now directly has the simple products embedded and that way the inventory will be managed correctly.

Magento Configurable Product Pricing

I need some help with finding out how to work the Configurable Product attributes in Magento. I'm using Magento for a restaurant site and I need to be able to make different sizes of a food item at different prices but I want to keep them using the same product. So for example it would be like this.
Small Pizza 8.95
Medium Pizza 9.95
Large Pizza 10.95
But instead of having three completely different products, which I believe would complicate things very much so for the consumer, I would like to have one product that would allow the user to choose what size and be able to see what the price of it.

magento tier pricing

In Magento, I have 4 customer groups setup, and different prices for each.
When I log in with a customer from one of these special groups, it shows the standard retail price of a product at $2.95 and a box beneath it that reads:
Buy 6 for $2.49 each and save 16%
I'm wondering if there is an easy way for it just to show the discounted price beside the retail price without all the rest of it.
I'm not sure where to start looking to make this modification...
EDIT: I'm running magento 1.5.0 - if that makes a difference.
The template change can be made at:
/app/design/frontend/default/default/template/catalog/product/view.phtml
or if you have local templates then in there.

Magento and configuable products for a printing service site

I am building a webshop in magento for an online printing service. The functionality I’m looking to implement is something in the lines of this example.
http://www.digitalroom.com/secure/brochures.html
The price is affected by the configurations you choose, and also there is a discount for ordering larger quantities.
I have made my products as configurable products and set up the pricing for each individual simple product. But magento seems to disregard the pricing of the simple products and solely base the price on the configurable product.
Is this the right way to set this up? Or is there another best practice to set this kind of product up in magento?
If it is the right way, how do I get Magento to act on the pricing structure under the simple products instead of the one under the configuable product.
Use the Simple Configurable Products extension.
