I can see a couple of possible problems if it's for making changes to terms
or prices.
We all know how hard it is to get people to read Terms to begin with, but what
if a Buyer had read the terms before saving a cart. Do you think they would
go back and read the terms again once the store reopened and they used a saved
cart? Would this fall under the "fees not clearly stated" reason for canceling
an order?
Which prices would be used, the ones from the saved cart or the new ones? How
many Buyers would even check the prices to see if they'd changed?


I want to say again I think the situation needs a solution and it's a good
suggestion. I'm just playing Devil's Advocate.

When an item is added to the cart the price is then set as long as the item remains
in the cart. If the seller changes the price before you check out the original
price is still what you pay (weather the new price is lower or higher).

As for the store terms the current terms at checkout are what is used even if
they are only recently changed. The terms are included on the bottom of the
checkout page (where shipping method and payment currency are selected) by clicking
submit you are agreeing to the terms that are shown on that page, it is the contract
that you are signing so it is worth at least skimming (if you have already read
the terms, or reading completely if you have not) to make sure no extra fees
have been added while you were browsing the store.
