Using Discounts module: Add tax to certain products over a given price

Hi,
We have a customer that runs an art gallery.  They have to add a tax of 5% to single paintings that exceed kr. 2000 in price, but not to say, books.

So the shopping basket may look like this
Painting A - kr 2500 (fee must be added)
Painting B - kr 1900 (no fee)
Book A - kr 2010 (no fee)
Book B - jr 350 (no fee)

Using the discounts module I have set the sales discount to (minus) -5% which generates the tax, however this is applied to all products.  I have tried the various Discount types, but none seem to have an obvious solution to the problem (short of manually adding one and one product to a list that should include this tax).

Am I missing something, is there a workaround or do we need custom code?

Hi David

I'm not sure that Discounts is the right way to go. You might be able to use sales tax groups to accomplish this.
