| Hi. I was wondering if it was possible to search for an item from a selection
of stores. Soon I will be making minifig purchases from around 5 stores. These
are stores in my "favorites".
However, I'd also like to purchase weapons and other parts to go with them.
It would be nice if there was a system to scan from selected "favorites". This
way I don't have to individually check them (the 5 stores I'm getting the minifigs
from) to see if they have certain items. I'd like to do this of course so I don't
have to pay for extra postage (by choosing any old store and unknowingly creating
a needless order at another store). Hmmm, I hope this explanation is clear. Maybe
this would help...
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Favorites Search screen...
Favorite Column...
Click on the favorite stores... (they appear in a box to the side)
Next go to an item selection screen, just like the default one in the "buy" tab.
Put in item number or description...
Clickidy Click...search goes on...results...BANG..now I'm aware if these select
stores have what I want. (Then I know where to add items to consolidate with
my minifig orders...or I know if I have to look elsewhere)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe I am unaware of some function that already exists on this site...my bad
if it does. I tried to search for individual items and see if those stores had
them and it takes a mountain or time. This would be much faster. Another thing,
maybe selecting from "favorites" is one opinion and "all stores" another.
Cheers

Add all the parts and figs to your wanted list.
Then, on this page http://www.bricklink.com/wantedSettings.asp , click the option:
"Indicate My Favorite Stores on My Wanted Items By Shop"
and "Sort My Most Favorite Stores on Top and My Least Favorite Stores on Bottom
in My Wanted Items By Shop."
Then, from http://www.bricklink.com/wantedShop.asp
Your favorite stores will be up at the top and will list how many of them have
your wanted items.
