It may require a small design change, waiting to hear back from the proprieter or *gasp* actually working. 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. Brian Absolutely Yes. Sometimes it is just the original items that get removed from my cart, and then I look at my cart and see there is nothing in there I still need, so I empty the cart and don't ever place the order. Emptying my shopping carts is the 3rd most irritating feature of BrickLink (to me).
