  It happens the parts I want to buy don't meet minimum buy treshold. Sometimes
with a large gap, but usually with a small gap.
When trying to find some extra items to reach the treshold, it happens I go into
a next shipping band, making it more expensive for the second time.

My suggestion is really simple: add a "give-extra-money" (or "donation"
box to reach the min. buy treshold.
Let's say I have 3.75 USD in my cart and the min. buy is 5.00 USD. I just
fill in 1.25 USD in the "donation" box (a sort of a "special service
product" to reach min. buy treshold while still keeping the same weight
and dimensions of my order.

You could even think about linking the extra money to a charity. If the seller
would configure his shop saying he allows going under min. buy treshold when
the buyer pays the gap to charity (preferably managed by BrickLink, so the surplus
is automatically donated to charity).

You can do it this way:

so if i buy that , & that only, does the shipment come wth tracking ?
also, if it never ships & seller cancels order, will the Bricklink Admin allow
negative feedback on that purchase for non-shipment / non-delivery?

actually never heard of "selling a Fee"

if this is truely allowed, can i sell a $5.00 email response service charge fee
for $1.00 USD...?

i mean we could charge $5.00 if you want us to respond to an message, but hey,
i'll sell you 1 response for $1.00

[...] Well, you can't buy just that, because the fee to reach the minimum buy is less than the minimum buy itself ($0.79 vs. $4.00). Even if you tried to buy both [...]
