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 because the store closed during the compilation of the cart, there
should be a option to still be able to view the cart and then save if for future
reference, Jill

This needs to be made optional for each seller. Sellers close their store for
a reason. To stop getting orders so they can catch up, or because they go on
vacation, get sick or have a family emergency. If they don't want any further
orders, I don't think they should be forced to accept orders from buyers
who leave their carts open and don't check out until hours or days later.
I rarely close my store. But when I do it is not for a minor reason. Something
serious is going on that makes it impossible for me to take on more orders. The
few times I had to close my store there also wasn't time for me to write
a closing message or send emails about order processing delays. Or I was in no
condition to do so, such as lying on a gurney in the ER after heart problems.
As frustrating as it might be for a buyer to lose their cart, I hope they can
also understand that there are situations in life where sellers sometimes just
need to be able to decline taking on more orders.
So what might be better here is for each seller to decide for themselves and
input how much time they want to give shoppers to finish shopping and checkout.
Right now the system decides that - 30 minutes. Let each seller input their own
time. Some may allow 6 hours or more, while some may allow only 10 minutes or
no additional time at all. It is their shop... let the seller decide.

Once again I think we are loosing focus on what I am saying and I agree with
what you are saying, as stated above the cart belongs to the buyer until they
decide to place a order, and if they are not allowed to complete the purchase
because the store closed during the compilation of the cart, there should be
a option to still be able to view the cart and then save if for future reference.
Just like when a buyer checks out and parts are no longer available because someone
else bought them, You have the ability to view the cart and then decide whether
to complete the purchase or not. The same type of notification should happen
but the goal is to not lose the cart. Jill
