Bbrabbit> cannot compare with tan leng leng.. Cuz she's the only rare species charging ACTUAL RATE..
(haven't seen anyone else doing it..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif])
There're still spree organizers charging 1.42-1.45 now....
Until I see lower rates reflected in my cc bill, else 1.38 is what I'll use Lo... Can't be doing so many sprees for free for long term...
Tan leng leng charges $1 for base charge.. She's doing and organizing many sprees as well.. If she has 20-30 parcels each batch, she'll also earn frm her base charge...
Base charge is only $13.40 - 10% Lo...
Every one has their way of "earning" thru sprees la...
The time, effort needed isn't free... Many hours to consolidate, place order, tabulate, wait for postman, sort out, pack,
Not forgetting little invisible things like markers to label, pens, scotch tape, wrapping, envelopes etc...
Honestly, nothing wrong to earn a few cents to a few bucks to many bucks(assuming $1-2k of orders), but how much effort and time has been put in to Organise that $1-2k of orders to earn that $10-20??
Whatever exchange rate is being charged, join only if u are comfortable Lo...
Not willing to pay a few cents-few bucks more, then look for someone else who's charging lower rates... Or can always collate Ur own among Ur frens and relatives.. ( like what u are doing..)
As long there's someone who's willing to do it, it's always good..[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
Like i say, I'm doing long term.. Not once in a while...
Last time when I just do 1-2 sprees I also charge exact and we spree among own friends... But when it gets more demanding, and more time needed.. More space needed at home... With HB nagging... No point to do everything free labor.. Because whether u earn or not, people still think u are earning... Come to a point... Give up.. Might as well earn a bit.... Still got ppl complain de.. Lol...
So.. Join all sprees at own comfort level la...[IMG=http://www.singaporemotherhood.com/forumboard/clipart/happy.gif]
