So here's the scenario.

You're a merchant. You're restocking and updating prices in your shop. You go to look up an item on the User Shops, and notice that the particular item you're pricing is priced about 1500-2000TU in everyone's shops.

 Except one.

One person has decided to be a jerk and price that item at 500TU. You decide you're going to buy the undercutter's item and sell it for a good profit. Here's the problem: said item has a quantity of 25! Its the busy time on Rescreatu and the site's lagging horribly. There's no way you can buy 25 of them any time soon. So unfortunately, you have to give up, and price yours at a little under 500TU, leaving you with barely any profit, and a very dissatisfied feeling.

 Lag is a problem here. And it would be sooooo much easier to put a bulk buying option in User Shops much like there are in regular shops. Not only would you be able to buy all of one item should someone have a ridiculous amount of a certain item for barely any TU, but would also cut down on lag a little, seeing as you wouldn't have to reload the page over and over 25 times just to buy all of that item. It would be a life saver for merchants.

 What do you guys think?

I like that idea. :D Even if you're not a merchant, you might still need to buy in bulk anyways. ;)

Yesplz. o3o

I've seen this suggested a few times before, and every time I agree thoroughly.

As both a consumer and a merchant, the latter of which I've been for only the last couple days, it's a pretty big pain to buy tons of an item. Whether you're culling, trying to buy some up to resell, or just want a bunch, it's.. argh. Sometimes I just get so annoyed with the hit-and-miss way clicking repeatedly works - sometimes you can buy dozens of an item this way, but most of the time, it only lets you get two or three - and opening the buy link in tons of different tabs is so laggy. >:

This would be fantabulous.  Even refreshing over and over on the buy page is not very convenient.
