Buying Privileges - OKSelling Privileges - OK
Store: Ben's Bricks
I recently got a couple of instructions for building MOC's, put the parts
list in a wanted list and want to start buying the parts for them.
Now clicking on buy all I can scroll down and find my shop so I can see what
parts I have in stock, I can't buy from myself for obvious reasons.
Is there anyway we can pick parts from a wanted list and click on remove from
inventory or something like that so we can pick the parts we have in stock
and get them removed from the inventory.
It's very long winded pulling up the wanted list, pulling up the inventory
and manually deleting the parts that you need. It helps to have a twin screen
setup on a desktop but trying to do it on one screen would be a pain.

You can search your inventory for parts on your wanted lists, but I don't
think you can search for parts on one specific list. If you got to your store
inventory, on the right, make sure you have expanded the "search my inventory"
options and select the check box for "Items on My wanted List".

The other down side is that it doesn't tell you what list it is on, so if
you have multiples, it's a pain.

Hopefully there is something better, but this is all I'm aware of at this
point.

There is no easy build-in solution.
What we do in such a case is that I give the wanted list to my wife (download
it and upload it in her account) and then she buys the items from our store
That way we can pull the items as normal and the inventory stays op to date.
We don't mind paying the BL fee on this transaction, small price to pay for
something that otherwise would be very time consuming.
Although we still would like to a BL function to do it from your own store with
you store account.

I’ll give that a try, that’s the issue I’ve got, I’ve got a few wanted lists
and only want parts for one of them, and as you say will be a pain to separate
the lists.

That’s not a bad idea and one I had thought about, I just haven’t got another
account to use.

I’ve currently got it in a shopping cart in my store so I can pick the bits I
know I’ve got and then will have to go through and delete them one at a time.

Thanks for the replies.
