Setting up a bricklink store

Hello all! Like many others before me, I've decided to use bricklink to sell off my spare Lego to help fund my hobby. I've opened up a shop, had my first few orders and ran into a problem. See, I hate all the different fees and shipping costs on BL, so I decided to take another approach. No fees, no shipping costs... Something I'm able to do because I mainly want to sell minifigures with maybe the additional set thrown in. The problem I have is this, if I offer this service and people order a 1 euro minifig ans want to have it shipped to the other side of the world, obviously I'd be losing money. I really don't mind losing out on a bit of money to be able to simplify everything, because I think it will ultimately repay itself through the quantity of orders. I just need to restrict it somehow, to protect my own wallet. So my question is... What would you prefer? A minimum buy of about 20 euros, or a flat 3 euro fee for international orders? Because my fee hatred, I'm tempted to go for the first option. On the other hand I don't want to deny someone that one minifigure they really want, just because they won't reach those 20 bucks. What should I do? Thank you for any future suggestions! Verzonden vanaf mijn iPad met behulp van Brickpicker
