I've started blocking countries altogether because it just isn't worth
all the time and money to ship $10 orders overseas especially considering the
PayPal fees for the shipping is more than the order itself.
I would rather hold fast to my policy of only charging straight shipping without
any handling or added fees, but the fact of the matter is International shipping
is a much larger drain on resources and time.

Not 100% sure it will work, but you can put a minimum order amount on each shipping
method.

I see, I need to break it down into separate shipping options--I've been
using the same ones across the board. Thanks

The page linked below has a great set of thumbnails with all known color
variations and stages of kraata. Would it be possible to add a drop down menu
or a select option so that when shops post Kraata they must choose the image
that most closely matches their piece?
That would eliminate the human error factor when posting Kraata and allow
people to more accurately choose what they want to buy based on coloration.

I just got a big bag of Kraata's yesterday, with lots of color variations.
I've been listing these in the past as best as I could with the correct color
and tail description. But it is not perfect, I agree. For example, a lot of listings
for the "Pearl very light gray" kraata are listed as "white", "pearl white" "Pearl
light gray" of "Very light gray". So sellers find it already hard to list them
with the correct color. The tail color itself is a whole different story.
I like your idea as well, but I do think that Bricklink tries to minimize any
"special" features intended for specific parts, and rather tries to come up with
a generic solution.
Looking at the 6 Rahkshi sets, I think these all came with the same color+tail
color variation. So a Guurahk would have always included a metal blue kraata
with a medium blue tail. So in an ideal world, the bricklink entry for that set
would include that specific kraata. That would require a Kraata bricklink part
as " kraata with medium blue tail" (with "metal blue" as ).
But as there are a lot of different combinations, as can be seen in your (rather
excellent) link, that would mean a lot of differen new kraata entries. And that
could in turn cause new problems with the added complexity.

We should just have an entry for every combination. It is a finite number (36x6
+ 6x6 rahkshi + 6 shadow + 1 sneaker), just work to add all the catalog entries
and pics.
Putting aside the price guide only goes back 6 months, each kraata/stage has
its own rarity and hence value. Folks listing these with their own interpretation
of the color combinations is only skewing that value--and making it difficult
to set up listing notifications on that one kraata you've been looking for.
It also makes buying them a risk since you aren't really sure what you'll
get unless you spend time with extra communication.
Of course, we could spend all the time adding the variations and sellers could
still do a poor job of listing them.

| Sales Tax has been added to the Order Download columns, but the detail items
were not tabbed over so the Location and Batch columns overlap.
