# Want to Buy

> Keep a wishlist of sizes you're trying to source, with the most you'd pay, and share it with your network so partners can offer you stock.

Keep a wishlist of sizes you're trying to source, with the most you'd pay, and share it with your network so partners can offer you stock.

**Where to find it:** [Open Want to Buy in AIM](https://aimventory.com/want-to-buy) — you will be asked to sign in first.

## What you can do here

* Add the products and sizes you're looking to buy
* Set the most you're willing to pay for each one
* Rank requests by priority so you source the urgent ones first
* Choose whether each request is visible to your network partners
* See what other connected businesses are hunting for, so you can sell to them

| Delete             | Want-list row       | Removes an item from your want list.                          | Use it once you sourced the item or no longer need it.                     |

## How to: Add items to your want list

1. On the "My Want List" tab, click "Add Items".
2. Search and pick the exact products and sizes you want — you can select several at once.
3. For each one, set the quantity, the most you'll pay (optional), and a priority.
4. Leave the network switch on if you want partners to see this request, or turn it off to keep it private.
5. Click "Add … Items to List" to save them all.

<Tip title="Real-world example">
  You need three pairs of Jordan 1 "Bred" in size 10. Add the size-10 variant, set quantity 3, set the max price to \$300, mark it "Urgent", and save.
</Tip>

## How to: Update or remove a request

1. Find the row on your "My Want List" tab.
2. Click the pencil to change the quantity, max price, or priority.
3. Click the trash icon to remove a request you no longer need.

<Tip title="Real-world example">
  You found two of the three Bred pairs elsewhere — edit the request down to quantity 1, or delete it once you're fully stocked.
</Tip>

## How to: Find selling opportunities in your network

1. Open the "Network Wants" tab.
2. Browse what connected businesses are looking to buy, with their target sizes and prices.
3. If you have matching stock, reach out to that business to make the sale.

<Tip title="Real-world example">
  A connected store wants size 9 Dunk Low Panda and lists a max of \$110. You have a pair on hand — that's a sale you can offer them.
</Tip>

## Good to know

* The "max price" is the most you'd pay — leave it blank if you're open to any reasonable offer.
* Priority is just for you: it sorts your list so the urgent hunts stay on top.
* Turning off the network switch keeps a request private; turn it on when you want partners to help source it.
* This is a wishlist for stock you want to bring in — it doesn't buy anything or move any inventory on its own.
