I am irritated with everyone. I am looking to buy about 10 books and 10 dvd's, and finding out who has what - is soooo time consuming. They give discounted shipping, but only if you buy from the same person; which means I have to check every persons store, for the other 19 items I am looking for.

I think there should be an option where you type in a list of what you want, and it makes a list of sellers and how many they have of your list.

I'm tired of making comparisons of sellers, prices and selection.

Have you tried using bizrate? I don't think it will help with eBay, but it does pick up prices from Amazon marketplace and most of the chain bookstores.
Would be nice if eBay had an option like that though.

I have seen sites like you're looking for from time to time. Look at this one, Deal Oz. I was searching for a somewhat obscure, out of print cookbook for someone in another thread. It does a live search when you open the page so what you see is what's available now.
