Wish list: take things off automatically when purchased
Hello,
It would be helpful to have the items on the wish list actually be removed automatically when they are purchased. If the regular user is like me, that wish list is quite extensive and a pain to wade through looking for grayed-out items.
Thanks!

FWIW, I'd prefer for this to not happen automatically. When I buy a new library, I enjoying looking through my wishlist and finding greyed-out items, and being able to calculate how much money I've saved. I'd be disappointed if they all disappeared without a trace.

I agree with Mark. I like to see what an upgrade has accomplished to reduce my wish list.
The system shouldn't automatically remove items from our lists.
A reasonable compromise would be to add a "Remove all purchased items" link when the user has greyed-out items, to quickly remove those items in one swoop, instead of manually going through the list.

I'd be fine with a "Hide All Purchased Items" and the be able to do a batch "Remove." Add in an easy way to rearrange the list and I'm a happy Wish Lister.

Other than sorting by date, title, priority, or price?

I like the idea of being able to hide/batch remove the items. As far as Mark's desire to see what was spent on what, isn't that what the "orders" page is for on our account info?

Sort multiple wish lists.
Persistent sorting of wish lists instead of resetting to "order by added recent to oldest".

The orders page shows the total price of a library, but won't show you that the library contains n wish list items that would have cost $m if purchased separately.

I agree that persisting the most recent sort order of a list would be nice! If they're going to implement that, it should be on a list-by-list basis.
The wish list feature I'd like is for Logos to offer more $9.99/$19.99 sales on commentary volumes that usually go for $60
My list is too long, and sales on a particular commentary collection only seem to come around every 2-3 years.Thanks to FL for including Carta and a Hebrew audio bible in Logos 9!

Hmmm - When you mention it that way.... Maybe I have been spoiled by my mobile apps that allow me to drag and drop items in any which way I want. High/Medium/Low priority is a nice first step, but sometimes the american part of me just wants "More." [:D]
I tried having a few separate wish lists to organize them all, but it's tedious to move them one at a time from list to list, checking for duplicate items, and so forth. After typing all this, I think i may just be a little whiny! [:P]

After experiencing problems accessing my wish list, I am now even more fully convinced for the need to at least have the option of automatically from the wish list. Well, got it figured out.
The problem was too many items on the wish list. The problem with finding the problem was that the time-effective way to discover it was to simply click "All" and then "Remove". That was painful, but the good news is now I can go back to "window-shopping" (or catalog shopping, like when we were kids-- "I want that, and that..."), but this time a little more conscious of the amount of items on the list.
Now, this could have all been solved much more easily if the items purchased were automatically removed from the wish list. See, over the last year I have been able to purchase a good portion of those items on my wish list, and if they had been automatically removed, the wish list size never would have grown too large to handle. Thus, my strong suggestion to include this feature, at least as an option, in the wish list.
Thank you.

When I buy items, I happily manually remove them from my wishlist.

While it would save time and effort if the store did it for us, I also feel there's something rewarding about doing it myself, along the lines of checking an item off a list.

I guess I get more satisfaction out of being efficient and saving time than the emotional fulfillment of crossing things off a list. Oh well.... [;P]

Quirks, heh. But God knows us intimately, and loves us completely. How gracious He is.
I suppose eternity will be "efficient," since we will be perfected.

In Amazon if I have for example a book in the paper format in the wish list and I buy the kindle format, the book is not deleted automatically from the wish list.

On a somewhat related note, the FL wish list behavior has changed slightly. Previously, you used to be able to put a wish list item in your cart, but it would remain on the list, independent of what you did in the cart.
Now, if you put a wish list item in your cart, but then remove it from the cart, it also is removed from the wish list. That's a bit problematic when you didn't buy the item, yet it "automatically" gets deleted from the wish list.
