Minimum Advertised Price by aheadWorks
Enterprise Merchants - Request FREE Trial!
Manufacturers and suppliers have their own pricing guidelines that you as an online retailer need to adhere to. Often the store price at which you are able to offer a product to your customers is lower than the minimum price that the manufacturer allows you to display onscreen. So how do you communicate this lower price to your customers and sell the product at the price that works best for you?
With the Minimum Advertised Price extension, you can now sell your advertised products at the price you want, even if it is considerably lower than the minimum stipulated price. This is an extension that keeps everyone happy: your manufacturer/supplier because you are seen to adhere to their guidelines; your customers, because they get products cheaper; and of course, you happy, as more sales roll in with the lower prices.
How it works
Minimum Advertised Price adds a special “Check Price” button instead of the usual product price. If the price in your store is less than the minimum stipulated price for this product, either no price is displayed or the list price or market price is displayed with a strikethrough just to stress that your price is lower. When a prospective customer clicks the Check Price button, the product is added to the shopping cart, and only then does the actual price you are selling the product at become visible.Quite simply, the real sale price on your store is not shown on the product page but displayed only after the product is added to the shopping cart.
Not only this, Minimum Advertised Price even allows you to offer some nifty enhancements. For example, when the customer adds such a product to the cart, it won't redirect him to the cart, but will display an AJAX layer enabling him to:
* Take the product off the cart (this can be done if the customer just wants to check the price and has not yet made a purchase decision)
* Leave it in the cart and continue shopping or
* Go to checkoutFeatures for your customers
* Get the best deal - lower than manufacturer-stipulated prices
* Know how much they save: customers see exactly much they save through the "you save" attribute
* No compulsion to buy – viewing the lower price does not mean they have to buy it. The product can be taken off the cart after viewing the lower store price
* Nice user experience: customizable text, buttons and images that can be used by the admin serve to enhance the customer's e-shopping experienceFeatures for you
* Adds optional 'Minimum Advertised Price' attribute to the product
* Great admin capabilities to maximise impact of this feature

About the Developer
This extension was developed by and is supported by aheadWorks
Minimum Advertised Price by aheadWorks 2 2The updated 1.2 version of Minimum Advertised Price is available for download! The extension is compatible with Magento CE v.1.6.0.0 and Magento EE v.1.9 and supports Subscriptions and Recurring Payments aheadWorks module. Also some bugs have been fixed. September 6, 2011Installed on our community 1.4.0 and works exactly as promised for boatshop.com. However, we need a tweak on the Product Detail page. Our Product Detail Page has definied-options purchases which can be selected and added to the purchase, before being placed in shopping cart - however MAP extension overwrites the lower left hand SUBTOTAL of purchase with the CHECK PRICE Button again. This has a net effect of discouraging nervous shoppers who want to option out their purchase and keep tabs on costs. We would like to ask aheadWorks for a tweak or work-around which allows us to eliminate this lower left-hand corner CHECK PRICE button, specifically so we can retain the original Magento Subtotaling of purchase with options.
