This idea popped into my head after reading an idea about a shopping cart feature in the Catalog. Although this is very similar it's not mimicked or copied. ~ Lets say you want to buy several items in the Catalog right away. You can bundle all of the items you have (somewhat like a shopping cart) and purchase them all at once once you have decided what you want to buy. Now for every item in your bundle there's an added 1% discount on your bundled purchase. Purchasing 2 items will give you a 2% discount on all of the items together, purchasing 5 items together will give you a 5% discount.. and so on. ~ Well that's bundling and saving. :3 Feedback?

Wouldn't be fare if it was user created items. However, Staff created items could possibly work this way and be implemented in the new economy thingy.

Would it be fair if that ( )% on account for the seller, was just taken for the marketplace fee?

So if the user got a 5% discount, the marketplace fee for that once towards the seller would be 25%, since our current marketplace fee is 30%.

Limitations to 20% discount, meaning you can only massively buy 20 items at once.

Okay- umg umg umg umg messing up here- rephrasing... OKAY: Since a user will only get a 1% discount on each item per more than two items purchased, that 1% is taken off for that one purchase on the marketplace fee, towards the seller.
