Hi,

I did not find anything on altough I cannot imagine it has not been suggested
before.

Please add an option like
[] Update only item which (have / have not) been sold since XXX days
to the selection for applying sale, where (have / have not) should
be a combo box to select, so I can remove sale on item which have
sold in the last xxx days. xxx has to be a numeric input box of course.

This would help so much applying sales to those non moving items.

There is an option to " Update only items which are days old or older"

this allows you to put all old stock on sale, so that should do what you want.

Sorry, no it does not *exactly* what I want.

There maybe lots really long listed but maybe bought from each always,
and are restocked constantly (imagine all the technic pegs)

Not sold for xxx days does not mean listed since xxx days.

On the right side of the inventory screen there is also these two searcg
critaria, items older than xxx days or items last sold xxx days ago.
Just want the same for applying sales.

It is a big waste of time to filter your inventory for items last sold xxx
days ago an apply sale manually to the long-time-not-sold lots.

Yes.

Although, I think there's a better way to implement the idea. Instead of adding
more options to the "update only items..." section below the Items in My Inventory
list, we should simply add bulk-change options to the "Search My Inventory" results.

So, you put in whatever criteria you want in "Search My Inventory", and then
when the list of all matching items comes up, from there you can update prices,
bulk quantities, condition, etc for all results instead of one item at
a time. That way we don't have to add dozens of different filter criteria on
the My Inventory page, effectively duplicating search filters which already exist
on the right side of that page for Searching.

I suggested this many months ago but there wasn't much interest at that time.
Not sure if people just didn't get it or what I think you've worded it
better than I originally did. Why not offer it up as a formal suggestion again?
