Hi,
Can you implement the search filter for email notifications?

For example, can I limit wanted item notifications to stores in my own region
or country?

Howdy -- Since you brought it up (and I supported the idea, by the way),
I send out notifications on a semi-weekly to bi-weekly schedule (depending on
the speed of my partouts).

How many notifications on average per week have you gotten from stores? What
would be a suitable frequency?

Hi,
I'm not speaking of emails from stores. I get very few emails from stores
that aren't tied to a transaction.

I'm talking about the automated Bricklink system that notifies you when an
item on your wanted list is listed. A particular part I'm looking for is
somewhat common in Europe, but I am only interested in buying from stores in
the US. I know the part was sold in the US because I bought the sets when they
first came out (in like 2004?).

When you add an item to your wanted list, you can select "notify" and get those
emails. I am wondering if i could refine the notification system to only send
emails when the item is listed in the US.

Sorry I can't answer your question because I just don't subscribe to
store emails much.

Those are sent by the stores too, when they add parts to their inventory (not
automatically, the seller decides if they sends notifications).
