I had to go through all of my items with the other stores to figure out what items were in this cart. If a seller closes their store, there should be a warning that a buyer has items in their cart and they should contact that buyer prior to store closing. Not sure if this feature exists or not but it would be nice, Jill Sorry Jill. I have to vote no on this. I think sellers should be able to close their store at any time regardless of whether or not any buyers may have some open shopping carts. Those carts can stay open for hours, and many do not result in sales. A better way to address your situation might be for a pop-up to appear for any buyers who may be shopping when the seller closes their store. The pop-up could say something like: "This store has just closed. Please complete your shopping within the next 15 minutes. After that time, your cart will be cleared and you will not be able to place an order while the store is closed." Thor Yes a warning on either end would be a nice feature, I would have either checked out or printed out the list of items in the cart so I don't lose them and have to spend time trying to figure out what they were. I typically buy 10 to 15K items at a time and the stores that have many items in them and I have dealt with b4 I check out and add-on later, Others that have store minimums I try to shift item to them to meet min/sales. I usually deal with 20-30 stores at a time then I try to consolidate if possible to have fewest orders possible. Jill
