Hej,
Would it be possible to show a quick list of items that the shop doesn't
have in a given wanted list ?
Say I have 100 items in any wanted list. While in a shop it says there are 90
available but it's not easy to know which arn't. Plus some duplicate
items and in reality it's just 80/100. So I'd like some option to show
me what's missing.

Use the Buy page, find the store in the list (if it has many parts you want,
it will be on top), and use the Wanted Item tab as explained here: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1202227
(In short: click near the store name but not on the store name.)

If the shop is “favorited,” it will be on top too if you check the corresponding
store filter.

Hej,
Thanks, that helped, but could have been more handy and user-friendly if it was
possible while you're in the store.

I think it would be confusing to be in a store and see parts that are not in
the store.

Besides, what would you do with that list while in the store? You need to go
to another store or to the Buy page to find said other store anyway.

Hej,
I would add them to another wanted list so I can easily find another store with
most of them. I think my idea kinda fits how bricklink works and adds another
option.
You buy page think is usefull but I can't even click the little boxed items
to buy them alone.

Hej,
Also I as stated at first, while in the shop it says 100/100 items available
but you don't know if there are duplicates (sometimes it would show 102/100
and even miss few items.

An Easter Egg in Bricklink!!

I kept following links until I reached your 2014 survey. Hopefully, my "Yes"
vote will put it over the top.

thanks for making my day educational.

Easter eggs are generally not as useful as this


  I kept following links until I reached your 2014 survey. Hopefully, my "Yes"

It was in 2017, 2014 is when I joined
But still, 3 years and I still give this explanation too often (already 3 times
this week).


  thanks for making my day educational.

Glad it helped
