| I always use the HIGH/LOW % indicator on the "Buy my wanted list" page to see
if I'm getting a good deal, however I don't always get the best results
because the indicator doesn't check if I wanted new/used. Example:
Part Average: New-$2 Used-$1
Store A Part Price: New-$1.90 - v10%
Store B Part Price: Used-$1.10 - ^10%
If I select "any" condition, I would expect that the used part for only $1.10
would be a better deal, and yet the page tells me thats overpriced. Instead I
buy the $1.90 part, thinking its a better deal (10% lower) but it's really
not.
Suggestion:
If "any" condition is selected, compare the part's price to the average of
both the new AND used price.

By selecting ANY it means you don't care about condition, so the cheapest
one is the one reported.
