Hi @ejalal the “subsequent print” additional charge is a tricky one to use in my opinion. While it’s an easy way to add an extra cost for each copy printed (and bear in mind, it’s applied only to multiple prints of the same object) it does mean that every order you get that needs multiple copies will have this surcharge added, whether there’s a lot of work required for each model or if multiple copies is just a press of the “print another copy” button. This extra cost per model can make your Hub look very expensive compared to others that don’t have such a fixed fee and I removed mine some months ago.

As others have said, it’s better to consider each order at the review time and discuss with the customer extra charges on a per order basis. If you can anticipate a lot of post or pre processing then you can agree an additional charge with the customer and add it manually to the order before accepting. Doing it this way ensures your prices remain competitive in the list, but also allows you to be compensated for additional work beyond what might normally be expected.
