Buying Privileges - OK
Hello! I am new here.

Thanks to poor planning on my end, I had to place a number of very small and
cheap orders this week. I was thinking of leaving a tip, as all orders arrived
in short time and great condition, but the seller cannot possibly have made profit
from my orders.

Is there any way to tip a particular seller? I was looking for this option, but
could not find anything.

Thank you in advance.

I don't think there is a system for that but if you really want to leave
a tip I suppose you could just make another payment, the same way you paid for
your order and add a note that it's a tip

Hmm, it might just be my OCD but I would not be happy if someone would randomly
send tips, it could cause problems with accounting etc. but orders from returning
customers
are always welcome!

You can place another order with them. Or next time, if you think the seller
is not making money from an order, then order more. However, the seller probably
is making money from the order. It is up to them to decide the minimum value
they will accept for an order under which fulfilling an order makes no sense.
Some people don't care about using a minimum, and hope by fulfilling any
order they will generate more orders in future whereas others want to be more
efficient with all the orders they accept. Neither way is right or wrong.
