Domain, packaging licence, shipping and payment fees: you add up the running costs of a small shop from documented single items. Whatever is not documented you enter yourself.

Orientation means the number comes from a provider blog or search result, not an official statistic. Documented means the value was seen in a checked source, legal text or our own price list.
