Expensive empty boxes!
« on: November 12, 2012, 20:39:58 »
I have just received a ds order, in which I had ordered some of the Christmas parcels.



When I looked at the invoice I was shocked at the price of them  :o

The green parcel wasn't too bad at 35p, but the tiny blue one was 75p and the yellow parcel cost £1.30.   :o

In total the six boxes in the photo cost me £4.80!!
The two elves were cheaper at £4.10 for the two.
I thought that paper would be cheaper than plastic, but obviously not.
At these prices, I don't think my klickies will be getting many presents this Christmas.  :lol:

Your palmobil is having a hard time affording to buy playmobil presents  8} I wonder if the boxes that are made to look like real sets are the same expensive price?

Better to give your clickies a gift they like instead of an empty box.  :)

A few kegs, a new shop, more friendly clickies to keep them company.. they might like all that much better.  ;)

That's kind of high, you have to really watch the DS prices. Electronics are the worst. Last year I checked to see how much it would cost to get just the lighted tree from the Christmas room set. It was $25.00 for just the tree from parts, or I could buy the complete set off their website for $20.00

Wow Elaine, that is steep pricing indeed!

Like you say, not too bad for the green one, but the blue, and especially the yellow ones are way overpriced. The price we pay for our hobby eh?! 8}

Yeesh. If I need spare gift boxes, I'll just make them. I wonder why the huge price difference.
