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 Hi Jill, I agree this needs some sort of solution. I have received the 30 minute notice of store closing before, but at that time it was the only store I was looking at. Like you, I've had multiple carts in progress before, and not gotten back to one for some time. I've been lucky not to have any closed in that situation. I'm not sure a pop-up about one store's closing while you are active in another store would work if you have pop-ups disabled. I can't remember ever seeing the new message notification while I've switched between store windows either. So even if the Seller knew it was me keeping his store open and sent me a message, I probably wouldn't see it in time. There are times when I'm on call and have to drop what I'm doing and may not get back to it for quite some time. My solution was to let the 5-10 stores I was working with know I needed to do multiple batches and ask if that would be ok. Then I could shop for a few specific items in each store over a short period of time, do a first batch for those items, and then go back for other batches at a later time. Thea Always Learning!

[...] So the simple solution would be to let the cart remain until the buyer decides to either make the purchase or delete it, and if they are not allowed to complete the purchase [...] (125 months ago, Mar 17, 2014, to Suggestions)
