It would be really useful if there was an inventory system implemented for buyers
not just sellers. That way if I buy a set for parts I can simply come on here
and add those parts to my inventory and then any wish list I have containing
those parts would be updated accordingly.

You can upgrade to seller and keep your store closed.

Or keep inventory on Rebrickable.com or with Brickstock.

I use another website to track my overall (loose and in sets) parts inventory;
BL is just not designed to do so efficiently.

That said, I also have maintained separate wanted lists here on BL for parts
that I've received, for a specific MOC or custom set: when the parts arrive,
I simply copy-and-paste from the want list to the "received" want list, and then
remove them from the want list. When all parts have arrived I now have a list
of them all for that custom build.
