I have searched a lot, but I couldn't find the solution yet.
We need to have different prices per customer for the same product. These prices should be shown on the list of products.
Is there any way to do this?
We are using
Joomla 2.5.7
VM 2.0.18a
Thank you in advance,

You can use Tax and Calculation rules for achieving this,
Create Different shopper group for your shoppers.
Create tax and calculation rules using margin option.
Assign it to the shopper group.
You have done. Just check the listing and details page.
Hope its helps..

I have products with a normal price(let's say product A costs 20e) and a group price(lets product A costs 15e) assigned to my customer group
that I call it "Resellers".
I want to apply an extra 20% discount to specific Resellers (not to the whole Reseller group)
in the group price(meaning the 15e)
I tried to solve it by creating a "Shoping Cart Price Rule" (I called it "20% Extra Discount") it applies to the whole Customer Group
How Can I apply 20% it only to specific Resellers and not to the whole Reseller Group for the group price only?
What you are asking is not possible with Magento out of the box.
You can overcome this by generating a coupon that you can send out by e-mail to your specific customers.
or you can try to use an extension like this.
It's not free, but from the looks of it it might get you what you need.
I'm in no way associated to the extension provider. I just found it on a simple search on the web.
You need to do some coding in order to achieve above said, following is the way it should happen.
You would need to hook into an event, ex :
Changing the price in quote while adding product to cart: magento
Also in the observer created above you need to do something like
Add custom discount order in total with button
Now whats above will do :
Let us suppose you create a general rule for 20% discount but do not relate it to any customer group.
What happen is once a product is added to a cart you can check into an Observer whether you want to provide discount to this particular customer.
If yes programmatically add coupon to the quote or order else not.
Please note : there are various other type of event for ex: after moving to checkout etc, in case you do not want to use on adding of product to cart.
hope above helps.
This may sound bizarre - I need a customer group that when they login into magento they see a price increase.
The reason for it is the online price is going to be cheaper than the instore products. So I'm going to setup a user for the sales staff to login to so they can process the orders - but obviously we need to increase the prices.
Is there a way to do this, it basically just need to be something like 10% more.
Quickest solution might be an extension. Google search found this: http://www.webtexsoftware.com/customer-group-prices-magento-extension
Just make the default price the higher price. Then setup tier pricing for the lower price. Associate all the groups except your sales reps to the tier price.
In the end we decided to create a new store that had the 'instore prices'
I would like to programmatically display a discounted price on the product list/page so that each customer as a personal price shown based on a customer attribute (like gender for instance, and of course let it be assigned as new price for the user session) but I can't see a viable option via the magento catalog price rules involving customer attributes other than the assigned group.
I'm using the group to do different kind of discounts and categorization of the customers, so the path of "split the customers on the gender" (or similar) is not an option unfortunately, since I can't assign more than 1 group per customer.
At the moment I was thinking about setting up a custom observer to check for calls to the price generation and then let it consider my customer attributes when calculating the price.
Is that possible? if so, any pointers about?
Would you suggest something different?
Thanks a lot to everyone for your time.
As I was thinking before, I solved my issue creating a custom module with an observer looking for catalog_product_get_final_price calls, getting the customer details from the current customer session.
It works great, I just need to let it display the correct price in the catalog product list, but is minimal, as the price seems to be calculated correctly inside the product page and the cart
Is there anyway to get product Id of product in Shipping module, so that for different category I can charge Additional amount.
for eg: i have to two product in carts. One is in phone category and other is in computer category. for shipment I have to add $5 for phone and $25 for computer . so shipment charge should be $30 dollars in frontend. Is there anyway I can get product Id and corresponding product's category Id in Shipping method collect rates method??
Please help me, I am in a deep trouble....I hope Eg that I provided , explains what I need.
Thanks in advance.
You can get the products from quote
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/cart')->getQuote()->getAllItems();
or
Mage::getSingleton('checkout/type_onepage')->getQuote()->getAllItems();
and iterating over those items (be aware of grouped and bundled parents and so on) will give you the category(s) they might belong to and you can make your conditions against those
This is only a tenable option if products belong to only one category. Unless something has changed in the last couple of versions, there is no data for quote items that shows the category context from which they were added.
WebShopApps.com has several already-developed solutions for shipping scenarios. Depending on development contract & budget, it may be more cost-effective to use one of their well-tested extensions, e.g. Shipping Override Matrix.
So, the site we are working on right now is going to be Multisite and we are going to have different pricing for each website. The issue comes when one of those sites needs to have two different price lists.
There is going to be the price list for one site, and another price list for the other and then there will be a price list based on the customer group for the second site. I am not sure the best way to set this up since the pricing will be per website. The only other option that I see out of the box is to use the tiered pricing functionality and set if customer group A qty 1 and above use this price. (Thank you Joseph Mastey from one of your other answers!)
I'm concerned about this since I am doing a nightly price update as well and I assume programmatically saving this per product could be a pain. If anyone has any tips on setting the tiered pricing programmatically that would be huge or if you have another suggestion I would appreciate all that come my way!
Thanks for the mention :)
Having looked at this before, you're exactly correct. The tiered prices seem to be the only easy way to accomplish this. I have thought about trying to use multiple store views to the same effect, but I haven't had success yet.
Also, yes, updating tier prices can be a pain, I'm not sure the APIs even support it.
The API does support updating tier pricing.

If there is a simple percentage reduction for one customer group then you can use a Catalog Price Rule.
