There is a big difference between those 2 things.having a small fee that really impact only the small purchase (like if you buy shein clothes for exemple) but not big package because if you bought a 200€ motor you can pay the +2€ easily. And on the other hand you have random tariff between +50% and 200% depending of the day of the week and of the mood of the supreme pedo monarch.
