| Hello I am suggesting a new buyer tool..
This tool would allow buyers to query specific stores for parts from their wanted
lists by either typing in the name of the store or using their favorite sellers
list.
The results would be out but much like the normal Wanted list with the name of
the store, quantity, and price ranked in order.
The reason for this tool.. As a buyer I know the lower priced stores but sometimes
those stores don't always have what I need so I check 4-5 stores at a time. In
checking all these stores to find out the store that has the best pricing to
selection I have to add all the parts to the carts and compare. This takes a
long time to do. by having this tool I would be able to just type in several
store names and be able to compare inventory and pricing to figure out which
store or stores would best maximize my shipping dollar as well as initial price.
I would suggest having the option to select certain wanted lists or all much
like the stores search for wanted as well as an option to ignore minimum quantities
and/or condition.
I think the infrastructure is within the site to make this possible as it already
has query capabilities in the wanted lists and within the shops themselves it
is just lacking the ability to specify multiple specific shops.

Yes! This is something that I was going to suggest if I couldn't find an easier
way to do things with the current functionality. I also have to go to multiple
stores constantly to add items to the cart and then compare cart totals versus
minimum purchase amounts, shipping costs, etc. This could definitely be made
easier.
Cheers,
Randy
