Sort by Price + Shipping

KyleJohnson11

Hi Admin,

When viewing an item, would it be possible to allow sorting by Price + Shipping? This would allow for a more accurate view at which is truly the cheapest option.

For the stores that are "quote only," and show N/A for the p+s, they could be filtered to the bottom.

Additionally, can we have the option to exclude quote only stores from searches? I know the quote only stores won't like this, but from a consumer's perspective, I only want to see final total with shipping and not have the back and forth.

Thank you!

Kyle

Hi Admin,

Just wanted to see if this would be possible or something that would be showing up in the future?

Thank you,

I think this sort approach would be similar to Amazon's sort to include Amazon Prime items (free shipping) to give meaningful list of Low to High, with all costs reflected. I suspect that they changed this within the last six months or so, I suspect, to solve just the issue that you describe, Kyle. (Sorry if this is not relevant to non-US people. I'm not sure if Amazon handles things differently in the different markets.)

With BO's approach of showing all costs to the customer (paypal fees, handling, postage) in a single number, this would seem to me to be a good justification for pushing the 'quote only' items to the bottom of the list.

It's been on the list since before release, it's actually quite a problem, but might get done one day.

Thanks Lawrence! Much appreciated!

@noteworthys you're right, I like the Amazon approach of being able to see the lowest to the highest with all fees included.
