    Displaying previous prices on special offers (Best bractice?)

    What is the best practice for adding previous prices on products?

    Many shops have display the previous price when - how would you add the two prices on a product in ucommerce?

    In this screenshot the product price was 4899 and is now 1875.

    I planned on using a variant, but it's a bit messy i think.

    Any suggestions are welcome. :)

    The easiest way to do is to add a new field called "OldPrice" to the product of type number. You only need the field for display purposes typically, so that'd be the way to go.

    We've got a prototype running of the new Dynamic Pricing Engine, which does this stuff on the fly, but for now the above would be the simplest way to go.

    If you're rendering your pages using .NET you could alternatively create two price groups one for the list price and one for the discounted price and just load that up when rendering the product.

    Ok we will add a new field and wait for the Dynamic Pricing Rocket Engine™

    Thanks :)
