Howdy!

I can hear you now...Baron, what is Double Search?

I'm glad you asked, because I made it up, but on second thought a better
name might be Compound Search!

But, Baron, what is Compound Search & how did you come up with this fantastic
idea!

Well, have you ever purchased a Bulk Lot? Of course you have, because all the
Cool Kids do!

But what happens when you find a part & BL returns 23 sets it can be found in...now
what?

Well, you keep digging & then find another odd part which BL shows 18 sets for...

But what if we could enter TWO parts & see what sets those two parts could be
found in together???

*BOOM* The sound just made by your mind being blown away!

You're welcome!

Come on BL...tis a simple logic gate addition to the search function already
in place & you love us!

Well, no need to close it down... This page could be made much more user friendly...
With a shortcut filling the list here like "Add this part/figure/set to multi
search" in the catalog item page would make it much much more user friendly.
Once you add enough parts then you can go to the search part and do the actual
search.
