Sorry if this is not the right forum.....but I'm sure you'll have an
opinion

I'm selling a fireplace on Ebay and offered to deliver 'locally' for
£1 per mile.
Before the auction ends somebody has asked if I would deliver to her
address which is 15 miles away according to AA website so I thought I
would charge £15 , however a colleague has said I should charge £30 as
the full journey will be 30 miles.

Any thoughts?

£15 total. What you do on the return journey is your business but no
concern of hers. You might even be carrying a return load as far as
she's concerned. Besides, £30 would be a trifle unreasonable for such
local delivery.
