Would it be possible to have a spot to state if a set is an exclusive? Whether
it's a magazine or a specific toy store, it would be nice to know that some sets
are/were only available from one place.

Also, would it be possible to have a spot for the MSRP for the set? I know this
one would be harder to implement with different currency/coumntries though.

The problem is exclusive to who and when? The Target exclusives are also available
at Lego stores and everywhere overseas.

Regarding showing the original MSRP for a set, this was suggested years ago,
but not implemented. If I were a buyer of a rare set no longer in production,
I wouldn't want to be reminded what the set once went for, and if I were a seller,
I wouldn't want potential buyers to try to use the original retail price as a
bargaining device. Besides, you can find that information on other closely associated
sites.
