Title: How much commission does SR charge on each transaction?
Post by: sofish89 on June 30, 2013, 06:14 am
I'm considering becoming a vendor and am just curious as to how much commission DPR charges. I have a steady connect for certain pharmaceuticals, and I know that the prices ppl pay here are alot more than street prices, so i am wondering how much of it goes to SR, and how much the vendor gets to keep. I'm looking at adderall prices and suboxone and the prices here are 3 to 4 times as much as i pay for a sungle pill on the street.

Just sell them all to me at once. No commission involved. :P

Budget around 8% for commission fees.

$0 - 50 -> 10%
50 - 150 -> 8.5%
150 - 300 -> 6%
300 - 500 -> 3%
500 - 1000 -> 2%
over 1000 -> 1.5%

Keep in mind that if the product costs $155, the commission isn't 6%.  It's

$50   * 0.1     = $5
$100 * 0.085 = $8.50
$5     * 0.06   = $0.30

For a total of $13.80, which would be 8.9% in this case.
