Okay, first of all, I said I repeated I am inexperienced several times throughout the thread. And next, because I don't understand the question and/or I am uncomfortable to answer it. I have asked people on this thread a question too, and they have not replied and completely ignored my question...

I'm not going to say it in the description, I'll let people experience it on its own. How am I not accepting the help people give to me? What help? And I'm still new at this, I'm still sorting everything out, and yes, I am not experienced, a bunch of people have rubbed it in my face that their...

Yes, i'm new to this. just because I don't speak a soapmaker's language doesn't mean I'm trolling everyone. I asked a serious question trying my best to express it in soap terms and everyone decides to make fun of me and treat me like I'm a little kid. thanks.

I have done my research and professional people say it is best recommended not putting ANY fragrance in the soap, in case for sensitive skin. And I've done my research on honey and the effects of it, which is healthy and nourishing for the skin and can treat acne. I also looked upon the bad...

I'm selling it on etsy. and because I have a full supply, but I suppose I should add it too. and yes I bought the mp base locally. I charge shipping separately and I add packaging toward the shipping charge too. not to be rude, but I've stated this many times throughout the thread, and I keep...

I will, and I've just started. And yes, I'm adding the packaging and posting price toward the shipping price. Or is that not a good idea (and I should change it so I follow what YOU do)?

True. It adds a few cents into the cost of each bar. Thanks for giving me advice! :)

Thanks for letting me know, nicely put :) And indeed it does.

The base is shea butter, 32 oz (because I'm afraid this soap making business won't work out, so I don't want to waste too much). I have done a lot of browsing on etsy, and most prices are $5 average and shiping $2-$3. And artfully done? Yes, they are massage bars that help your skin and acne. I...

I don't add color, because it could harm the skin. I don't add fragrance either, but I use essentials and honey and olive oil for cleansing and acne. I already have a great supply of both essentials, so I count it as free. Any, my soap base is only 4 lbs. (since I'm starting out, I don't want to...

First class, at first I decided flat rate, but now first class it costs me only $2 :) and I'm making M&P because CP is more professional and longer to make. So of course, M&P.

It's a MP soap, so it costs way less. I've read other soap forums, and people agree that it only costs .40 cents a bar.

I know, but I asked around on Etsy and they all said they put the shipping expense into their price. But yes, I think making my soap cheaper and charge them full shipping will be more effective. Thank you!

Oh silly me! I meant how much you earn each bar of soap...so I can see if $2 is an average. I'm so new to this *facepalms* forgive me

I am making $2 profit, just like I calculated.Thank you so much! What is your profit?

I'm not paying for it, I'm just adding the shipping expense into the price so it seems less expensive (the shipping), and it's more fair and effective that way. May I ask a question? How much does it cost for you to ship a bar of soap? And how much do you earn per bar? :) Thanks for all your help!

It is :) But I'm not paying for shipping, the customers are, it's just I add half the shipping expense in the price, and when I minus that and the rent, I get $2. How much do you earn a bar? How much does it cost you to ship a bar? And I'll try that method.

How much do you earn for each bar? Hi! I'm new to soap making. With shipping, Etsy, and Paypal costs, I calculated what my pricing should be, and I decided with $5 (average selling price on etsy), and I don't want to sell it anymore expensiver. However, not including the costs, I receive...

each soap i make costs .40 cents. shipping the bar costs 5.60 (i think) and taxes take some dollars. i really need help on pricing, because i caculated and the money i get when someone buys a soap is on average $2, when i charge $5 (for shipping and taxes). how much does it cost you to ship a...

I'm just confused. How much does it cost for you to ship a bar of soap? I checked online USPS and it said 5.60 flat rate...I'm really new at all of this so help please! :-)
