P&p

[Matt H]

POINTLESS THREAD ALERT!!!!

 

I notice that many of the private for sale adverts say after prices '+P&P'

 

Now is it just out of habbit, or do some people actually add on to the item the cost of an old shoe box / loose cardboard and bubble wrap they've got lying around?

 

I've always just put 'postage' but many times you see P&P.

 

So, just wondering, has anybody in one-off private sale considered packaging cost? or is it just a habit putting P&P?

Saves time typing P&P compared to postage.But some larger items require a lot of bubble wrap,tape and boxes etc.It all adds up Sir
