Please bear in mind that in most cases your packaging isn't free. If you forget to account for that cost somewhere, you will end up out of pocket on your sales. The best place to account for it is in the postage and packing. I generally try to make it clear that my listed p&p rate for an item includes the cost of the bubble-wrap and cardboard. I don't want my buyers looking at the stamps on the package and thinking I'm trying to con them by charging too much for postage :?

That is good advice -> as postage and packaging costs include the postage costs + anything you need to pay to package the item (bubble wrap, jiffy bag) + your costs to get to a post office (like me -> where I don't have a nearby post office that I can just walk to).
