Hello all,
I am a bit confused and I was hoping that I might find the help here.
I have been studying and studying and I just can't seem to find a satisfying workaround how to throw the shipping cost values from my cart to paypal.
The cart dynamically slices the items into item_number_x, item_name_x, quantity_x and amount_x hidden fields so that when a customer hits the submit button in my shop, he/she will get the exact cart content on his paypal account also.
But while doing testing I noticed that indeed I haven't thrown the shipping costs along and since I really haven't found a good solution how to do that, all the carts are missing the shipping cost. I made some research on the other boards only to find out that there is actually no shipping_cost field available at the moment.
Since losing 5 Euros per transaction as shipping costs is not an option here, any feedback would be highly appreciated. There must be someone out there that has been fiddling with the same issues.
...help...

I had the same issue. You have to set your shipping preferences in your pay pal account under your 'profile' tab. You can adjust your shipping costs based on percentage or by flat rate based on cost. Then you just pass the shipping costs per each item as 0 and when it reaches pay pal, your preferences will add the appropriate shipping for the whole cart. Hope this helps...
