My Son is wanting just £5 of items, but it's short of the minimum amount
required. Can you just pay for less and pay postage than buying £15-£20 of stuff
he doesn't need.

looking forward to any guidance you can provide.

thank you

Hi,
This is a question you can ask directly to the seller. Some sellers will allow
it with a small packing charge but there are many sellers without a minimum purchase.

Or you can choose a different store that doesn't have a minimum buy.

Exactly. I have a hard time ONLY spending £5

Somebody else here coined the BrickLink phrase "Need 1, buy 12"
and I have always tried to live up to that. haha
