P&P Lowest first?

[Scoobysteaks]

I understand the other issues it may cause, but I think 'calculate' is a bad feature as well. eBid should track your location and details and work out the prices before you click onto the auction. Without P&P Lowest First as a buyer I was terribly confused. I was trying to get a close friend to sign up the other day and he was checking it out and asked me to search for an item and he also complained about P&P lowest first not being included, without me even saying anything.

I'm going to persist with this idea because I really enjoy eBid as a whole.

Still hanging on to this!

Does anyone know if this is in eBids special to do list?

Sorting on Total Price including P&P is an absolute necessity.
I have implemented this on other ecommerce sites and when available it is always used more heavily by buyers than item cost alone. Most price comparison sites now offer this, as do other auction and ecommerce sites.
The significant issue of international P&P costs, which most listers won't pre-calculate can be overcome by splitting the item list: Show own country items including P&P first; International items with P&P pre-calculated for the buyers country second; Items without pre-calculated P&P last.
This split of the item list may also save bidders some effort as I (for one) search UK items first then International items when researching prices and a split list would save me doing multiple searches.
...And P&P inclusive sorting would save a lot of frustration and manual calculation. Let's make it easy for buyers, please!

Well...I hope so…if this option exist in here in that case 99% my items will show up on the top if the buyers search first from that option, because I offer one of the lowest shipping for my items on whole eBid and International shipping I think I offer cheaper from anyone from here…with of course NO extra charges for multiple items Domestic and International….
Well…I just say PLEASE eBid Implement this options in here….
Please…Please…Please…........

:P When I'm looking for bulk stamps it takes me a while to calculate the cheapest, really frustrating, this needs to be implemented!

This is definitely needed. And for the naysayers who imagine it would be too complex to implement, hey, tell us how feeBay do it then, if it's too complex! Years ago they didn't do it, and although I was keen to have it (even considered how to write a Firefox plug in to reorder the results on a page), I imagined it was too resource intensive to be feasible for feeBay. And then, wonder of wonders[*] they did it!

The result was that I became MUCH more interested in checking out bargains on the site and BUYING. Well now, that has to be a big plus, right?

[*] After all, there's a lot of things they don't get right, so I was pretty amazed at this win!

Completely agree with this, thanks

Bumping this up to the top...
