Well hello all - (relatively) new casual buyer here! I ventured over into the
forums, wondering if I had simply somehow overlooked the ability to display stores
by item count and price. Apparently not! Having this feature removed is a big
loss - for everyone. Not knowing what the stores' prices are (and sorting
by price) really stinks.

Consider this a vote to bring it back, please!

  The new WL system seems to be catering for the new casual buyer that only wants
a few bricks and has no idea wether there getting ripped off or not. The old
system was much more useful but apparently outdated and needed a total overhaul
to attract the newbie community.
So I think Newbies is the answer your looking for ;o)

  What was wrong with the old wanted list that it had to be changed?

  Per this exchange, I am formally asking for prices and stores to be shown again
in the Wanted List. Please vote!

My email to bugs@bricklink.com:
  I am unable to see prices in my wanted list, and it takes many, many more
clicks to actually be able to find any shops with the parts that I want. I
depend on this feature, and need the old functionality restored as quickly
as possible.

Yesterday this page ( http://www.bricklink.com/wantedView.asp?wantedMoreID=
) allowed me to have access to some of the functionality I needed, but it
now redirects to the new, broken wanted list.

Please fix the wanted list.

Response from Bricklink:
  Unfortunately this is not currently a function of the new wanted list feature. I am very sorry that you are not satisfied with the new wanted list feature. We provided users with the opportunity to provide feedback during our preview launch and have since applied much of that feedback. The redirect link was a bug and should not have ever led to the old pages. I understand that learning an entirely new feature can be a bit daunting and would be more than happy to help you with specific tasks if I am able. However, if you have any specific suggestions you would like to provide about how we can improve the wanted list please feel free to post them on the Suggestions topic of the Discussion Forum. This way other users that feel similarly can vote on these changes. This will be the most efficient way to get them addressed. Thank you!

Sincerely,
BrickLink Quality Assurance
