Hi,
In my opinion, during the selection of stores in the panel "buy", the information
on the windows "Confirm Store Selection" or "Edit Store Selection" are not sufficient.

I face 2 main problems :
1) Once I've finished to select sellers, I must create a cart to access the
"notes from seller".
In fact "new" or "used" are not enough detailled. For used parts, these notes
are important because some parts could be used in good condition, or used in
bad condition (for example "yellowed", or "scratched").
Furthermore, by creating carts, I book parts before be sure that their conditions
will fit my needs. And during my check, they are not available for other people.

-- I suggest to add the column "note from seller" in the windows "Confirm
Store Selection" and "Edit Store Selection" (picture "edit store")

2) When I need huge amount of parts ( ~3000 ), during the store selection I don't
find the information of how many required parts a store have for me.

-- In windows "Confirm Store Selection" or "Edit Store Selection", I would
appreciate to have the global value of "Total buying" parts in the current storen
near the total cost. (picture edit store)

-- In the tag "Buy", could the column "Item count" of the stores list counts
only the availables parts I need ? ( if store has parts ID 3001 x4000, but I
need x26, do not count 4000 but 26). (picture "buy wanted list")

I don't think that is what is happening. Items in a cart can still be bought
by another user.
If that happens you will get a message when you view the cart.

On the left side of the screen you can select to see the wanted items instead
of the wanted lists. If you then select the store by clicking on the row (not
on the store name), you will see which items and how many the store has.

Do you talk about some numbers written in red as "(5)" in cart ? If so, thanks
for the information!

Yes you're right, but with a column for it we can sort by availability of
required parts instead of checking each store.
Using the sort, I prefer to know quickly which store has the most parts of my
list instead of know that a store has more parts than I need. Even more, I think
the current method distorts the result of the sort because I don't see use
cases where a buyer need to buy more parts than he wants. Or an other explanation
is that I've not understand the tool at all..
