Why do I charge £1.99 to post a DVD/Game/CD?
I believe in top quality service, as you would expect from the likes of amazon.co.uk.
Each item I ship is sent in a brand new padded bag, or well wrapped in bubble wrap. Cost around 25p
Each label is a thermal transfer dymo label, which avoids smudging. Cost around 11p.
1st Class Post costs (jan 08) 70p
Total Cost 70p+25p+11p =£1.06
The remaining 93p covers labour cost, for printing the label, managing on ebay, packing the item and putting in the postbox. This takes around 10mins on average per item. This is a cost of £5.58 (6x93p) per hour for labour, which is not far above minimum wage.
I would also state that all my listings are sold for below way retail price, so when the price is considered including shipping it still represents incredible value.
