| My apologies if this has already been suggested.
It would be great if, in addition to showing favorited stores and those with
coupons first, you could also show stores in which you have open carts first.

My suggestion is, that when a user favorites a store, he or she should also have
the option to receive coupons from that store. This should get around any concerns
about privacy.

I like it! Voted yes

We could make a feature where one item could be casually sold without becoming
a store, offered on the forum or some other way, and the sale could be official
and register for fees and everything. Buyer would know it was different from
buying from an established store, but it would make it easier for someone who
just wanted to sell 3 sets from their childhood or just wanted to get rid of
a box of their children's used Lego. Right now someone just has to tell
someone in the forum that they'll have to make a store and I expect 98 times
out of 100, they shrug their shoulders and go to eBay or Craigslist.

They shelved auctions about ten years ago.
It would be a good idea for job lots but I guess the problem is that people might
use it to scam. If there is no seller verification (the barrier to open a store)
then it wouldn't surprise me if we saw lots of listings for UCS MFs and the
like. Similarly, people might try to use it to sell license based MOCs that are
not allowed on the site any more. So presumably someone would have to police
it to ensure that LEGO is not allowing the sale of anything not allowed on the
main site.

Indeed, make it possible to add 'complete/incomplete' to the standard
selection criteria, so: add it to the database for this category

I imagine people might also list ones with missing pages as incomplete. Although
if there is a description of what is missing, it should not be too bad.
Of course the alternative is individual entries for each instruction book.
