| It is nice that we have possibility to import XML rebrickable file, but I am
really missing possibility to export such file for selected wishlist. A typical
use-case is:
1. Find a MOC on Rebricable which I want to build and the parts I need to buy.
2. Export rebricable XML and import into Bricklink
3. Finding several sellers who can individually or combined fulfill my needs
4. Creation a wish-list for each seller (unfortunatelly shopping cart is not
persisted)
5. Revision of parts in wish-lists and reorganizing where each part will be bought
(this is also not very UX friendly step - need 4 clicks to move to other wishlist
for each part)
6. Placing required orders for each seller.
7. Now I need to add bought parts into Rebricable under my inventory - how? Adding
all the parts of the MOC from step 1 is not good because in steps 3-4 I could
modify some parts (using alternatives).
Would be nice if this whole process could be improved - it is very time consuming
now to find few sellers who can fulfill the complete order.
Great site by the way, good luck!

The reason you are unable to download wanted lists is to stop people from using
BrickLink to facilitate their buying from other venues. This suggestion has
come up many times in the past and always been denied, and now that there is
a competitor that uses the same XML wanted list files it is even more likely
to be denied.

WELCOME to BrickLink, and welcome to the forum!
To get the lists of what you have already *bought*, you can use a software called
BrickStock to import your BrickLink orders. From there you can save the files,
and upload them to your inventory at Rebrickable.
Good luck!

P.S. you can also work with individual wish-lists for each seller, by creating
different lists with the same software. It is very easy to move things around.
From there you can then create separate wish-lists and export them from BrickStock
to BL.
* you can also import your shopping cart using the software, and save it as a
list.
