I think it would be useful to have seperate Minimum order amounts for Domestic
Orders and International Orders.
The reason for this is the large amount of time it takes to ship an international
order versus a domestic order.
A domestic order I can ship at anytime using the Automated Postal Center in the
Post Office Lobby, My packages are often shipped around 1:00am. But International
orders, require that I wait until the Post Office counter is open and then wait
in line before I can ship the package.
If this suggestion were implemented, then I would remove my Minimum for domestic
orders, and increase the minimum for International orders to $5.00.

Haven't ever thought about this, probably because for us the international and
domestic postal process takes the same time (we leave all our parcels at the
local Post Office every morning and they process them at their leisure in time
for the postal collection but then I suspect our arrangement is quite unique).
Thinking about it there may be other reasons to do this.. international shipping
is (usually) more expensive than domestic hence more Paypal fees for the seller
to absorb so a slightly larger minimum might help here. I don't think we would
do this as for small orders exit UK, the postal price difference is marginal
versus domestic (in one case actually cheaper!). No objection though, should
remove the need for some sellers to use dubious hidden handling fees for overseas
orders, so I vote yes.

It won't save me any time either, but I've had many $5 orders that cost over
$20 to ship. The PP fees on the shipping completely erode the margin. Not sure
if I'd use this but I'd like the option to. Voted yes.
