Hi,

the "criteria weight, min 7" means that an item must "weigh" 7 or more 
pounds. I think you need to put an if statement in your checkout page to 
test how many items in the cart, then if < 7, use the quantity method, 
and if > 7, use a weight based method. Also the min's should probably be 
1 for these methods.
