As a buyer though, the shopping experience is a freakin pain... The "stores" need to get a hell of a lot better in regards to niches, letting buyers mark sets so they're not seen again.. or not presenting sets they've already bought etc. etc. etc. Having to sift through hundreds of crap sets to find the good ones is a waste of time and money. I've often given up which means the content store and producers are losing out on potential sales.

I think you have a good reason, but as you say it does not stop them brokering it and a set brokered with 3-4 brokers can make more than a single sale. Depends on quality. We employed the programmers so we cna concentrate on shooting.
Some of the facilities you ask for might be something we could look at, marking sets as favorites for future purchase or crap to be forgotten are both excellent ideas. You are right wading through some sites is a nightmare, they boast they put up 100 sets today and I think, "So I have to wade through 99 to find the good one?"
Niches are a touchy subject with me, they simply do not sell well enough to bother with. Everyone tells me they sell to surfers like hot cakes, so why don't the buyers buy more and want to pay more?
I agree a lot of content producers are losing out on sales.
