| Many times I run into the problem that the auto cart creating feature creates
unnecessary carts. It does that because that other store has the part a bit cheaper.
So it saves like 0.1 Euro. However, the extra card creates an extra 3-4 Euro
shipping cost.
Would it be possible to add the following features.
Filter not only for seller Country but to seller City/Location. This would facilitate
personal pickup to cut down on the shipping.
Also add an input field for a flat shipping cost figure. In my country, the domestic
shipping cost is about 4 Euro. If I could add that into the equation, I think
Bricklink would cut down on the needless carts and would tend create the optimal
solution with Shipping cost included.
Thank you!

This has been suggested before but will not be implemented for privacy reasons.

The algorithms have been said to include an approximation of the shipping costs
(something like the recent¹ average¹ cost¹ between the seller’s and buyer’s adresses¹).
(¹ Whatever those words mean….)
