I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but it appears that there's
no way to add an element ID until a part has been approved by a catalog administrator.
It would be awesome if it was added to the page where we add items to the catalog.

Thanks

Josh

  Add a filter to search criteria, to exclude sellers with minimum purchase over
X (where I decide the value of X).

I know it does show minimum purchase in the search results, but being able to
just exclude these stores, would be helpful.

Voted yes.

  When sellers set up a store, default to Weights turned on in Shopping cart.

Further, whenever a seller decides to turn off this feature, display a message
telling them that this makes it hard for buyers to estimate shipping, and it
is recommended that they leave the weights turned on.
Maybe even tell them that many buyers will choose to NOT buy from them, and instead
choose a seller that has the weights turned on.

I know that I have selected "empty cart" instead of checking out, at the point
I was about the check out, for at least 2 sellers in the last two days, due to
no weights in shopping cart.

I have read the reasons for having weights off. I still don't think it is
necessary (or of benefit) to not display the weights. There are better solutions
to every reason I have seen, for not showing weights.

Buyers are being asked to estimate the shipping cost, close enough to commit
to the order.
Not providing the buyers with the available information to do this estimate is
wrong.

Maybe implement a policy that allows buyers to cancel any order placed where
weights were not visible in the shopping cart without risk of NPB.
This will give sellers more incentive to just make the weights visible.

I think a better solution would be to allow buyers to (not by default) display
the weights in every store, regardless of the store's setting.

It would be great if there was an option to be notified when an item's price
changes.

This might work well if it was: A) optional and B) restricted to just sets.

If I got a notification every time a part on my wanted list changed prices, my
phone would blow up.

Maybe it could be optional for every wanted list item.

Except for temporary use, I only add expensive items to my wanted list. I have
BL notify me via e-mail when something pops up so I can pick up the best deals
on things I'm looking for. I buy a lot of cavalry minifigures. I seem to
miss a lot of them because the prices change.
