Thanks Charlie. I did wonder about the smaller amounts. One of our products is a deck of yoga posture cards and the total amount of product only takes up around 1cbm. Shipwire quoted me $62.95/month for storage and pick n pack. On the basis that we only ship 10 orders this adds $6.30 to each item. This doesn't include the shipping either. It takes the value of the cost price beyond what is a fair price for the item. Even with a small amount of space, it seems really expensive. The other product is big and awkward in size - a round yoga mat, which when rolled is 120cm long by 15 cm wide and 15 cm depth. This takes up much more space - 500 of them is around 7cbm. I'm ordering a MOQ with these already, so can't do any less than 500.
