[QUOTE="CSB046, post: 1931648, member: 7923"] I'm inclined to agree with trancejeremy. I use the wishlist feature primarily for things that seem vaguely interesting, but that I don't have a current use for. I don't want to forget about these items, so I put them on my wishlist. Every so often, I then go back and evaluate, removing items that no longer seem even vaguely interesting. I do also use the wishlist to store small items that can "make up the minimum" when a mid-priced item comes along that I really want. I sometimes do buy things off the list, but frankly, a number of items have probably been on my list for as long as I've been purchasing PDFs. To be realistic, I don't know if I'll ever end up buying them or not. I have [I]occasionally[/I] been "pushed" into buying an item when a vendor has used the wishlist feature to send me a coupon, but that may have been a matter of good timing (i.e., sending it at a time that the item suddenly seemed more useful). More often, I feel kind of bad that vendors can (apparently) see these items sitting on my list and have to sit around wondering why I'm not buying them. [/QUOTE]
