I think shipping costs are too high in my opinion.
For example if I want to order a few pieces of TESA tape + the tape holder thing it costs 44 USD + 44 USD delivery.
I would buy from iFixit all the time but the only thing that is stopping me is shipping costs, in the end it's always significantly cheaper for me to buy from eBay or from my other supplier's website (as they don't charge me for shipping).
Is this a worthwhile discussion?

That tape dispenser is very heavy and the size does not allow it to be shipped in any of the cheaper international packaging like envelopes. While it is a cheap item in price, the cost to deliver internationally will always be high. One good thing is it is a rather universal tool, and I'm sure something equivalent is available locally to you (unlike the custom cut Tesa tape).
