myHermes price rise: 10p on a 1kg parcel

No primary category set

myHermes featmyHermes have increased their prices which will see the cost of a 0-1kg Parcel rise by 10p from £2.60 to £2.70 (including VAT).

It’s worth remembering that until the price drop in October 2015, the cost of a 0-1kg Parcel with myHermes was £2.78, so the new £2.70 price could have been much worse and remains one of the most attractive rates on the market.

Still any price rise is unwelcome and you may need to adjust postage rates on your marketplace listings and website to take the rise into account. If you built your shipping costs based on myHermes pricing make sure you check your rates to ensure you’re not losing money.

  1. What are we supposed to do about items already on ebay or just sold where the postage price has already been shown.

  2. Wouldn’t mind too much except for the fact they keep on losing my parcels on a regular basis.

  3. We used to use my hermes for parcels below 10kg. However DHL have lowered price this week , now hermes have put there prices up. we will now only send parcels under 5kg with myhermes

  4. myHermes dropped the price in October, as Chris rightly points out. myHermes have put them up now but the packet price is still 8p lower than pre-Christmas.
