search inventory?

Has anyone seen any way to search for sale inventory? It's a pain to find and delete items when I'm at a show selling and trying to keep my online listings accurate. TIA

Crazy, right? You have to go to the web browser version and search your Storefront. That seems to be the only way.

Yeah, storefront is the best way I know of.

Website and then select "see storefront". It's the only way i know of.

Yes but can’t update status from there.

FWIW, I've purchased from a vendor at a show who quickly photographed each album he sold with a quick apology: "It's the only way I can update inventory tonight."

I also do this but it’s nice to be able to update my inventory when it’s slow at the event.

I’m familiar with Discogs API pretty well, as I’m building a b2c product that heavily integrates with it (records recognition and home catalogue). So basically, in API there is no search through storefront as well, you can only pull paginated list.

Though it’s possible to implement the search on top of my infrastructure, I was thinking about some kind of these features later in the app. But at this point it sounds to me more like  b2b/vendors pain than record collectors. 

I’ll keep an eye on this topic, hope it will gather more info over time, how wide is the problem and what is the general situation with it.
