    Default Quantity as a drop down selection

    Right now, the only option for enter quantity is by free text by the user where they enter the quantity, is there a way to input quantity via a drop down menu?

    ie, we will only contrict users to quantities of 50, 150, 250, 500 and 1000.

    Absolutely. You can do that out-of-the-box. Go to the product variant's page in the admin and you'll see the 'Restricted Quantities' field where you could list a certain quantities to be purchased.

    Sweet, can we identify a price for each quantity?
    ie 15, 50, 150, 250, 500, 1000, 2500, 10000, each level will have a different price?

    I was thinking of using the quantity discount, but that has a limitation of up to 5 levels.

    Restricted quantities won't let you set a different price for each quantity point, no. You'll probably need to use variants, or set that up as a kit instead.

    Is there a way to get rid of the quantity entry and use one of the 2 attributes instead?

    ie 15, 50[+0.25], 150[+0.25], 250[+0.25], 500[+0.65], 1000[+0.75], 2500[+1.25], 10000[+1.35]

    You could only do that via customizations.

    I think this might be a customization, but do we have an option where the users enters the quantity and from there issue a quote or price based on the number of quantity that a user inputs? From there, they should be able to add that to the cart?

    If customization, has anyone done and can offer some instance on how it can be done? Thx.
