I just buy from my wholesale place i dont want to waste time for a £1!!
also customer pays i just add 20%
 
Will dig out average costs on the listed items and post them soon.

Regarding the add on:
Assuming you have visited the site and made a list of mats, then either visited or telephoned the distributor and collected the parts, 20% is now becoming a minimum to cover the cost of your time and your fuel. In this area 25% is becoming the norm.
