Hey... how about listing the brickbay sites by number of parts?  The more you
post, the higher on the list you are!  That way we can avoid anyone
opening "AAA Lego Sales".

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.

Here's an alternate thought:  sort the shop-list by date-time of their most
recent order.  This *might* be viewed as punishing low-volume sites, but
those are probably not very active anyway--all it would take is a single
order to push a shop back to the top of the list.

And for the more-active shops, this 'sorting' will keep jumbling the list.

The sorting won't be very useful for locating a particular shop, but that's
why browsers have "find in page" functions.

Oh, and don't publish the date of the last order.  That information doesn't
belong on the front page (or in any other public location).

(...) you (...) set (...) The most effective way of sorting the shops would be to sort by country then by state. That way if someone really really wanted to be on the top, they would have to relocate from Wyoming to Alabama. But seriously, sorting (...) (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
