| | | Not quite everyone. I like to know that if I am in someone's shop, this is it,
and I don't have to wonder whether there's something else in another shop of
theirs that I also want at the same time. I also don't like the possibility
that one seller might have more than one shop on the spotlighted / featured store
page. And plenty of people do fine selling both new and used items. What if
someone decides they want a shop strictly for gear, one for sets, one for new
parts, another for used parts... you get the picture. Why complicate things
for users (especially newer ones) as well as use up more of BL's resources unnecessarily?
I think it works fine the way it is.

I have to agree.
The main problem I would say is that it then could start even more of a trend
for others to open multiple stores as Maggie stated.
The reason I say this because where do you draw the line? 500,000 parts? 50,000?
5,000? Or some may feel that.....
"If someone can open up 2 stores for new and used parts, then why cant I open
1 store for parts and one for sets? One for each could help my bottom line because
people will know that my store named 'Billy Bobs Great New Sets R Us', is just
for sets and my other store, 'Billy Bobs Great New Parts R We', is just for parts."
"And if I had a third store named, 'Billy Bobs Great Almost New But Used Parts',
would be really great".
I know this example may be a bit unrealistic (at least the store names), but
once you open up that door it becomes harder and harder to control and it could
help lead to more and more dishonest abuse.
I would say a better solution would be to change the format so that people could
have one category for new parts and one category for used parts. That way you
can completely keep them separate. You could then set up your orders to sort
first by condition of the parts. This would allow you to have a good amount of
separation and also allow people to place orders with a combination of new and
used parts with out having to pay for separate shipping charges.
