I thought about that and about showing shops with 10K+ parts in bold but then
shops also have sets in them so it would have to be a combination of how many
parts and how many sets one has in their shop. How would you determine how
many parts equal 1 set? Not by the number of parts in the set because the set
is sold as a whole.

Having a shop on the top of the list that looks like
<--- @LOOK! @LOOK! LEGO!!! --> doesn't mean that the individual will sell
more. They will sell more depending on the selection of items, quantity,
descriptions, images and prices. It just doesn't look nice.
I'm going to put in code that will not let you pick a shop name with anything
else than alpha characters excluding shop names with the first and second
character being "A"

And what do you do when someone named Aaron wants to have his shop be "Aaron's LEGO", perfectly reasonable (and if his last name is Smith, I'm sure he'd far rather be "Aaron's LEGO" than "Smith's LEGO").
