I don't know if this is the best solution for your problem,
but you can define your own price calculator like this:

# Pricing 
UserTag calc_price Order code quantity
UserTag calc_price Routine <<EOF
sub {
    my ($code, $quantity);

	if ($Vend::Interpolate::item) {
		$code = $Vend::Interpolate::item->{code};
		$quantity = $Vend::Interpolate::item->{quantity};
	} else {
		($code, $quantity) = @_;
    }

	# sanity check
	if ($code !~ /^\d+$/ || $quantity !~ /^\d+$/) {
		Log ("Wrong input for calc_price: CODE $code QUANTITY $quantity");
        return;
    }

    my $db = Vend::Data::database_exists_ref('price');
	my $keys = $db->query ("select price,min from price where component_idf = $code order by min");
	my $price;

	if (@$keys) {
		# fallback price
		$price = $keys->[0]->[0];
		# check for appropriate price
		for (my $i = 0; $i < @$keys; $i++) {
			if ($quantity > $keys->[$i]->[1]) {
				$price = $keys->[$i]->[0];
			}
		}
	}
	$price * 1.95583;
}
EOF
