Kakobuy Agent Fees and Landed Cost Explained
Agent fees are only one part of the real cost. Buyers should compare the final landed cost after payment fees, domestic freight, packaging and international shipping.
Why it matters
A low service fee can still produce a higher total if exchange rates, top-up fees or shipping routes are worse for your parcel.

- 2Add payment or top-up cost.
- 3Include any service or handling fee.
- 4Estimate international shipping and packaging.
- 5Divide final parcel cost across items.
Buyer checklist
- Item price is separated from shipping.
- Domestic freight is included.
- Payment fee is not ignored.
- Insurance and packaging are considered.
- Final cost per item is calculated.
Mistakes to avoid
- Comparing agents with incomplete cost columns.
- Forgetting exchange-rate markup.

Decision rule
Use total landed cost, not headline fee, when deciding whether an agent or product is a good value.
