It would be nice to have a global cart where you can put in items and then
have the function to get a list shops that have most of the parts
for the lowest price like the "wunschliste" at "geizhals.at".

So for example you add 200 parts to your global cart and press "list shops".

After that you should get a list of shops orderd by price and shipping costs
like this:

Cart: 200 items (max difference between cheapest and most expensive = 30$)
(max number of shops = 4);
Constelation1:
Shop items price shipping total
Seller A: 100 20$ 5$
Seller B: 50 10$ 10$
Seller D: 30 40$ 10$
Seller E: 10 15$ 5$
---------------------------------------
4 190 85$ 30$ 115$
(10 items not found in any shop)


Constelation2:
Shop items price shipping total
Seller A: 100 20$ 5$
Seller B: 50 10$ 10$
Seller C: 40 55$ 20$
---------------------------------------
3 190 85$ 35$ 120$
(10 items not found in any shop)

I don't think the wanted list by shop includes prices of those parts, especially
including shipping as very few of us has built in shipping prices.

Exactly the issue, for big wanted lists terms and conditions are more important
than base prices.. per lot fees, "handling charges" etc!!

Use WL then eliminate those that charge 20 cents fee for every 5 cent part, you'll
get a much beter deal than looking at base prices alone

But this list is sorted by parts not thinking about cheapest price and ammount
of parts needed. So if one shop only has 1 item of a part and i need 10 i want
to get the parts from the shops that have most of the parts to save shipping
costs.

So what i want is a balace between the number of shops,price and shipping costs.

This would be a great function that would help many buyers. I will support this
with my vote!

Until that time, using excel and listing 'your' maximum price per item in BL
can help you avoiding to get overcharged on items. You can easily compare the
your max price against the prices in the shop you visit but also at S@H. (Sometimes
cheaper then BL).
