Well said Christian

I hate it when people moan like fuck about stuff like that. I have had a few items in the past go for stupidly high prices, totally not reflecting their true worth (ie, cheaper to buy new). But, theere are people who don't care, and if the item is worth that to them, they pay it. Fair's fair.

Postage, bastards who just look at the postage stamp/ticket and see £1.88 and then get fucked off because they paid £5 for it. As Christian says, consider fuel to get the item to the PO, packaging costs (Padded envelope, bubble wrap, tape, address labels) and time also.

With 99p start auctions, for the one item you make £10 on, great!!! because there are plenty more that will end without covering your costs
