"added to store on (date goes here)"

Thu Oct 02, 2008 11:30 am

Just a quick request... would it be possible to add a line in the online store info that shows when a figure was added to the store? Sometimes I get confused with everything being all together in the "new" section since they tend to sit in there for a few weeks, and this would help us older (addlebrained) shoppers out.

Or maybe a "sort by date added" function...

the "added to store" section should also have a timer and live inventory count. if an item has been up for more than 5 minutes, I usually don't want it.

I'd also like to see 'sold out' items kept in the database (with retail price) for reference purposes.

I'm serious when I say this: I almost remember it all. I can nearly pinpoint what was entered into the store in order. I can also, usually, remember what WAS in stock and what it was sold for. I wish I could make my powers useful.

I think the idea of NOT using "low stock" is to drive hype AWAY. To say "LOW STOCK" is to say "UH OH RARE BUY NOW!!!" vs. "Buy what you like."

Now this can go in circles all day, AND I see the point on BOTH sides so I'm not saying I support one way or the other, just throwing some thoughts out.

Total agreeement on the 'Low Stock' indication. Some sellers put 'Low Stock' on practically everything from the time it becomes available. I am sure the sellers that do it will justify (and I am sure many buyers would even agree) by saying 'Oh we're just helping you out by letting you know there aren't very many left) but I think it is all about hype and playing on your fears of missing out. I don't mind a 'Last one' indication on an item though, as this is meaningful information. With 'Low Stock' there might be 2 left..there might be 10.
