The example below that you are saying is wrong is from THEIR spreadsheet..

They are saying that the first type of quantiy contains a certain amount at
a certain price. In 666's case the smallest quantity you can get is 5 and
it's $10.00.. BUT if you order 15 it's 25 .

I do have the pricing.asc setup for commonadjust which I translated this into

code	q1	q5	q10	q15
666		10		25
