Hey all,

Does anyone know if its possible to do seaches on Sportlots that return results only from dealers who offer free shipping to the Sportlots box? It really is an awkward site to navigate, isn't it?

It is an awkward site. There's no specific filter that offers that direct function. However, as you learn which sellers do offer free shipping you can apply the "Select Seller(s)" filter and it'll refresh the screen to show just those sellers. Note that sometimes the screen won't refresh automatically and you'll need to do it yourself.

For whatever it's worth I heard an interview with the guy that runs sportlots and he said they are in the process of updating the site

Well, he did introduce the surcharge to pay someone...

Yes, I saw that too. The whole site really needs updated. I think I'd use it a lot more than I do if things were a bit slicker.

I use it a lot and there have been recent improvements like keeping the searched page after selecting a card to buy. It used to refresh the page and return to the top which was a pain when you were near the bottom of the 50 card page.

I just recently discovered the seller filtering and use "Shopping Cart Sellers" when using their box option, but that still needs improvement as new searches reset to all sellers.

Searching through some sales sites tends to dissuade me from purchasing if it's clunky, but Sportlots has improved and I'm thankful for them.

I use Sportslots very often and love it, but it is difficult to navigate at times. My biggest wish is that when I search a particular dealer, I could search by team. Being a Twins collector, I’d love it to go to a dealers page and pull up all of their Twins cards, instead of searching my set or name. That aside though, I love the site.
