Personally I've never used a freight company. I pay a straight 8-10% of the value of the items I want shipped In a public contract and that's that. I set up a contract today that stars in low and is about 20 jumps to jita; 10 mil reward for 100 mil collateral.

Courier contracts to me I want completed promptly and I only create them if I consider it to much risk to ferry the goods myself. All this paying 1.5% stuff is all well and good , but i hope to have doubled the 100 mill in the week it takes to transport...asuming anyone ever does!


In that scenario 8-10% is fine, but you'd soon change your mind if you had to get multiple billion ISK or more packages moved ten or fewer jumps, especially if your margin is less than 10%.
