Hi. Is there any way weight could be shown in store cart for bulk items? Like
superlots, or lots of small parts that can be bought by multiples only.

Right now for such items in my cart I only see:

Qty: 100 (x100)
Qty Available: 500
Each: US $0.05
Total: US $5.00

...but no weight, even though it's basic bricks and plates. It's hard to figure
out what the total weight would be, when your buying several hundred of the same
part. I'm sure that info can be calculated, so the issue is putting it in storeCart.asp.

Once you add it to the cart, you can see normally see it when you view your cart.
If you can't, the seller disabled that ability for their store.

For custom lots, the weight may not be available if the seller didn't enter the
weight. You'll see a red question mark for these.

Oh, this happened with a bulk superlot of perfectly documented basic bricks and
plates. So it's probably the seller's setting then.
