I am currently building a table-based shipping module for a client. For this table rate, I need to access the original price of a product to calculate the shipping total before both discounts and the “special price” are applied. In other words, I have a product that normally sells for $62.00. However, from January 1,2008 - July 28, 2008, there is a special price of $48.00. For testing purposes, I am assigning the shipping rate to be equal to the original price of the product ($62.00), but I cannot seem to access that price, and instead wind up with $48.00. Here is the function I am using:
private function calculateOrderTotal()
{
// collects all the items in a given order
$items = Mage::getSingleton('checkout/session')->getQuote()->getAllItems();
$orderTotal = 0;
foreach($items as $item) {
$orderTotal += $item->getOriginalPrice();
}
return $orderTotal;
}
I’m guessing that the object Item does not have a function to access the pre-special price? Is there another way I should be doing this? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
