So then all my carts expire after about 2-3 days and I have to work on rebuilding
them. It's enough to give up and source parts elsewhere.
Sure, I can save screenshots and try to save in Brickstock but these are extra
unnecessary steps. Likely there is a variable somewhere in the bowels of the
BL code that could be changed from "72 hours" to "720 hours". If Amazon, Target,
and the Owl can remember my carts indefinitely, I don't think it's asking
too much for BL to do the same.
And for those who would complain that it's unnecessary, tell me also how
it would inconvenience you to have a longer cart timeout.

Amazon and Target usually has hundred guaranteed in stock and they can leave
things in the cart for many days. BL parts, especially used parts, are in limited
stock with no restock time so items in cart can poof while you're looking
around. I've had things "snatched" out of my carts before when I tried to
checkout and it reported items were already sold before I could complete.
Trying to get 720 hours on cart isn't practical, particularly since BL currently
doesn't update your cart if someone else bought out what you wanted. Just
make wanted list and dump it all in there. Then use brickficiency to scan the
wanted list and stores within your shipping area (USA only, USA + Canada, worldwide,
etc) and it can try to come up with a few stores at best possible price. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=82975&st=0
