The numbers of parts might be slowly going up but the variety is still abysmal.
I did a search for some items I want to buy today and turned up a host of very similar items all way over priced from just a few sellers.Most of them were the same items as I found with the same searches a year or so ago.
No progress in reality since Julies original post and it looks more and more as though there never will be.Sadly talking to others it seems as though the lack of variety and the host of run till sold forlorn hopes is a real disappointment for many visitors.
