No harm done 
The problem is that we can’t edit posts and can only cancel them.

EasyBuy is easy but dumb. Use the Buy page instead (Buy All button in a WL or
hover over the white heart-shaped icon and click Buy when the menu appers).
On the Buy page, you can use Auto-select that’ll give similar results to EasyBuy,
just with a couple clicks more.
Bonuses:
— you can select multiple lists,
— there’s filters (location…),
— you can even cherry-pick lots in multiple WLs (using the Wanted Items tab on
the left).
As for merging lists, yes, it’s been missing and we asked for it since the inception
of the “new” Wanted List pages, in 2016.
As a workaround, you can ‘merge’ WLs by downloading your lists and uploading
them into a new one.
Not very user-friendly but you then don’t need to use or create a tool to do
it.

| I was recently purchasing parts for two different builds that were in different
want lists.
I discovered you can only easy buy for a single wantlist at a time which meant
losing a lot of the efficiency of a single order, and because some of the orders
were small meant not qualifying for the minimum order, even though the combined
total of the wantlists was sufficient.
I subsequently merged the XML files by writing a Python script and reported it
as a new want list. This would be much easier if it were an internal feature.
Preferably I would select distinct want lists and easy buy would merge on the
back end so that I can maintain the sorting of the part lists, but it would be
acceptable to have a "merge want lists" feature internally.
This tool needs to resolve the very common situation that there will be duplicate
parts between lists being merged. Ideally it would use the merged total for calculations
but have a drop down showing the two required amounts from the premerged sources.
The former is simple the latter a little more difficult since the XML format
doesn't have a tag that would allow this.
Thank you.

| Hello,
This morning I was importing an XML file with the attached results. In every
case, removing the letter from the part number correctly resolved the issue,
but I noticed while confirming the parts that for each of these parts the site
has recorded the below numbers as "alternate item numbers".
My suggestion is that the import utility also search the alternate numbers when
attempting to import, and update the Wanted List with the most appropriate current
number. This should probably generate an import warning message but should allow
the import to proceed.
Thank you
The following items in the XML file are invalid or do not exist in the Bricklink
Catalog.
Please fix the following errors:
Item No: 3068b
Item No: 3068b
Item No: 3068b
Item No: 3069b
Item No: 3069b
Item No: 3069b
Item No: 3069b
Item No: 3070b
Item No: 3070b
Item No: 3070b
Item No: 44302a
Item No: 553b
