Okay so sometimes the search engine isnt the best thing to sift though I got over 600 results and the first 5 I thought might have my answer in it didnt so here is my Q of the day:

Do any of you you know what percentage of your money is charged when sell through contract.

I know it's 10% in the market, but I didnt pay attention to how much I was charged for my last contract (im trying to calculate how much I ACTUALLY profiting)

[Ha sorry for all the fluff, Ill just bold the important part]
Thank you

Depends how far apart they are and what the item is.

Between two companies with HQ in the same country, it's zero.

I tend to say that it's roughly 1% (or less) of what you're selling for, but that's not a rule. Some products (wood) are notoriously expensive to ship, and a shipment between Congo and Germany should be more expensive than between Turkey and Germany.

There is no % charged right off the top like in the market, but there are small transportation fees charged if you're selling the goods to someone with a home office in a different country than yours. I think that is limited to 2% at the most though.

You're generally better off in selling things by contract than on the market.

Ahh! I was thinking it was about 1.5% but I didnt realize that location played a part in the equation as well.

I appreciate your help, thank you


I suppose I will just take 2% from my total to be safe...

none

Well what heppends is say your warhouse and head office is in turkey and your selling to someguy in say congo, there whats called a transportation fee. It will waiver depending on where your selling to how mutch your selling and what article your selling. but say you both have head office in congo there is no transportation fee. It is quite small the fee except fro wood witch i hear is quite high. :cry: There is no real way to calculated it excepte by watching when you send your next concrate off. but if you want just take 150$ max off totale.

You all should reset your accounts and put your head office in france. I'm tired of shipping to Germany.

shipping costs are negligible
