I completely understand where you are coming from. The cost of the yarn, plus the patterns, plus the shipping materials, plus the cost for putting it up on the website for people to purchase it, plus the cost of the time for someone to assemble the boxes. It’s so much more than just the yarn.
The cost of the yarn itself is 13 dollars. Three skeins you already at 40..she sells it for 49.95?? She is not scamming you. The other 10 bucks is literally for the behind the scenes things like she said. Do your research before you accuse someone. Again you are free to substitute the yarn you don't have to buy the boxes.
