from a merchant pov they all suffer what SLX suffers from too: crude tools and no bulk editing. Only OnRez (RIP) did it right.

From a shopper POV I can't really comment, as (quite literally) my money is on SLX.

The ability to buy for different (named) sims. So one could have the good one wants delivered not just to SL but to the OS of one's choice.

The first store to offer this service will receive the grateful thanks not just of OS residents but of content creators too

Metaverse Exchange lets you buy for that one Opensim whose name constantly slips my mind

Legend City, I think

The residents will get the goods they need; the content creators will get the payment they are entitled to.

that still going?

it appears to be still going but with little items...

I use both slap.me and slx as a seller but i agree with peter the sheer amount of time it takes to load multiple items puts me off a lot

so bulk editing tools are a must then... examples?

SLX tried with the templates and they do save time but i dont think they quite go far enough, ie. only uploading 1 image at a time

Exactly. Without the templates SLX would not be usable.

But OnRez had the option to select any field (or set of) for as many items you like and edit them.

"Make new listing(s) from existing listing" would be a killer.

Arrange inventory in Sets (inclduing a listing for the set) would be great too.

A merchant API to access the merchant part from an external program or web sevrice.

Actually Apez has that already, as well as individual webshops for your own site.

OnRez was a delight to use. Often I'll use XStreet to gather info then I'll buy in-world.

thanks you all for your input... it's be VERY interesting!
