  Similar to the way amazon checkout works, it would be helpful in situations where
I have to meet a sellers shipping weight/price bands..

For Example.

If I find parts or sets in a shop I want but I know the postage for upto 1000g
is $20, but upto 1500g is $35

my cart is 1.050g, I would now be able to select 50g of items to (save for later)
and when I next shop with the seller, if still available the parts would be ready
for me to (add to cart) again thus saving postage.


At the present time if my cart is too much I have to remove Items I actually
want, complete checkout and then find the parts again later. Finding and adding
parts can be time consuming.

Items in carts aren't reserved until the actual checkout is done.
You could just checkout with a message you would like to add to your order.


Yes, same problem with quotes; one part sells and the whole quote gets wiped.
I think the solution Paul is looking for it to be able to "split" an order so
the 1st 1kg order can be checked, out, paid for and shipped leaving the remaining
parts in a new order that can be added to later.

As a buyer I can see the benefit of that and as a seller I can also see that
it would encourage customer loyalty so no bad thing. I would, as a seller, like
to be able to approve (or not) use of such a feature on an individual order or
buyer basis however as well as turn it off if I was planning to go on holiday
and close the store for example.

Alternatively, yes just ask the seller if the whole order can be left open works
as long as you don't need some of the parts more quickly. Again, I would
like the option to set order open duration by order or customer or again limit
it if I was planning to close.

Just an option in the cart to (save for later) individual pieces. I would check
out but leave remaining items im not ready to buy yet in the cart. Without having
to delete them, find them again in the shop, and then add to cart again.

I can see that might be useful in some cases, so long as sellers say what the
cart can weigh (as opposed to what a package can weigh).
