Basically, I think that it would be very nice when you by stuff from a store
off of your wanted list you could somehow have the items automatically removed
when you buy them. This option could be in the checkout stage of the buying
process perhaps. Like a box that you could check and uncheck if you didn't want
to do this....What do you think?

yes please

like on or after checkout a thing saying

`do you want to remove wanted list items in this order from your wanted list?

perhaps even go as far as to take to an edit screen similar to the one a seller
sees for re-uploading stock after cancelling an order.

It can be easy to miss in all the excitement of making a new order!

Basically this feature already exists but I do agree that for many it's hard
to see due to the small print and location on the screen.

I vote yes to having it much more visible and user friendly.

At the checkout page, there is a tickbox.

After you submit your order, read the screen carefully... there's a link that
says something like "view these items on my wanted list."

One thing that I don't know exists (I don't recall and won't place an order just
to find out) is if, when it shows you the items on your wanted list that you
ordered, it reminds you how many...

At least, it does not give the option, AFAIR, to remove the number you ordered
from your wanted list total....

Still, it's there and it works.

Correct. After clicking that link it redirects you to what looks like your Wanted
List but it only shows the items from your Wanted list that was ordered in that
particular placed order.

You then have to manually delete each item by clicking the box.

Unfortunately no it does not but would be a really good feature to have.

Already exists, theres an icon in orders page that allows you to remove ordered
parts from wanted list.

Step 1: Click here http://www.bricklink.com/orderSettingsCols.asp?v=p&viewFrom=O
Step 2: Check the second box from the top in the Left colum
Step 3: Save changes (button on the bottom)
Step 4: On the Orders Placed page, click the icon that looks like a unfurled
scroll

Note: The system can only determine whether an item in an order exists on you
wanted list in the same condition. If your list needed 8 of an item and you
only bought 2 it can't say you still need 6. If you have it as "New" on your
list and you bought a "Used" one it will not appear as being in your order.

Nice, I never knew about this setting. Incredibly helpful, it should be "on"
by default.
I was copying and pasting this link http://www.bricklink.com/wantedDetail.asp?orderID=
(replacing
and while it worked, I knew there was a better way. Thanks for the guidance.
