MySQL IF ELSEIF in select query

I\'m trying to select different prices of a product based on the quantity that user chooses. This is the query I\'m working on (it has a syntax error):

 sele

You have what you have used in stored procedures like this for reference, but they are not intended to be used as you have now. You can use IF as shown by duskwuff. But a Case statement is better for eyes. Like this:

select id, 
    (
    CASE 
        WHEN qty_1 <= '23' THEN price
        WHEN '23' > qty_1 && qty_2 <= '23' THEN price_2
        WHEN '23' > qty_2 && qty_3 <= '23' THEN price_3
        WHEN '23' > qty_3 THEN price_4
        ELSE 1
    END) AS total
 from product;

This looks cleaner. I suppose you do not require the inner SELECT anyway..
