| I agree. If sellers do not want to include accessories,
then they should state so in their listing.

Wolverine without claws...come on now, that is just wrong people.
Wolverine again, but unlike Magneto, he has his helmet, but not the hair, and

Who is Wonderwoman without the lasso? I do know that the lasso came with another

I don't think adding accessories to minifigure catalog listings is
the way to go. Perhaps a better option, one that would most likely accompany
an improved shopping cart/automated checkout, is the ability to add variations
to products in your stores. That way, on the product page or checkout screen,
a drop down box would appear next to the applicable item and allow the buyer
to select 'add Mjölnir + $0.75' or something similar. This way, sellers
can potentially sell more of the accessories and buyers can retain their freedom
of choice.

The main problem is this, there are sellers that include accessories, and there
are those that don't. Currently, the ones that don't mostly show up at
the top, (cheapest), of the catalog pages, and will most likely be the only ones
that show up in the auto-finder option, and the sellers who do include the accessories,
get lost in the shuffle. Also, when viewing the catalog page, the comments are
not shown, so there is no way to view who includes, and who doesn't. The
result is, there is no inclusion of accessories in the average price, as that
info doesn't affect the average. So, the sellers that include accessories,
LOSE, no matter what. But, I feel many buyers of certain figures, like the ones
I used as examples already, want the "complete" figures, including the accessories.
So they have to do extra work to find what they want. The wanted list doesn't
find what they want...as it doesn't show who includes accessories either.
So the buyers LOSE too .

I agree with you that there is an issue to be solved. I also think that while
super lot filtering should be a part of the wanted list, that reintroducing that
feature doesn't solve this problem.
Maybe then there should be a base listing for the minifigure, like now, but on
the seller's inventory detail screen there is a set of checkboxes for approved
'optional' accessories that are normally associated with that figure
in the sets that it is featured in. This would make the listing auto-populate
something like "includes: sword (part#) and shield (part#)." Also, it wouldn't
count as a super-lot, but could be added as a filter option. That should make
it easier for the buyer in your scenario and the seller who includes the accessories.

I think you are proposing a workaround for a problem instead of addressing the

| I don't want to force anyone to do anything, although I have been forced
to remove super-lots, as they are not included in wanted searches, without any
warning. That's OK, people have been abusing the super-lot feature recently,
and it has resulted in bad press regarding them. In a few days, I will no longer
have any left. I would like an option to include accessories with minifigs though,
as that is the way I roll .

It is a pretty big assumption that ALL buyers would prefer to always pay for

Just my two cents..

I did not say ALL buyers. I also didn't say some, or most either, I suppose
. I am sure there would still be sellers willing to part out figures, as always,
so the individual parts would still be available. My point is that there currently
isn't a good option for sellers that do want to include the vital parts with
their minifigures. I wasn't expecting much with my post, the Cars characters
where never created, like me, and many other buyers wanted. trying to collect
all the characters turned out to be a useless cause. That's OK, I saved a
lot of $ in the long run...

Don't know what a mailchimp is, but sending unsolicited emails can be considered
as spamming. It's a selectable reason to report under the Problem tab.
It's a clever way of promoting sales without having to create coupons.
I would vote no as sellers should equally play by the BL rules of promotion.
BL should not encourage mass emailing to former customers.

the duration of the coupon, the discount amount, and the code text itself, then
anyone who knows the code can use it within the timeframe that it is active.
I would love to hear your thoughts as I think this is sorely needed for any stores
who are trying to do repeat business with customers.
