Check the current stock of hard-to-find Lego sets

So for Amazon it shows whether they are in stock by Amazon directly. Not necessarily other sellers selling through Amazon. A reason for this is a lot of sellers that are not Amazon directly jack up the prices for Lego sets. So they are considered by the system as "OOS". I'm planning on implementing a status and a price soon. But for instance take a look at the Super Star Destoryer on Amazon. Retail price by Amazon is $399 when they have it in stock. Currently the price is $799 by an outside seller listing it on Amazon.

I like that implementation as I try and avoid Amazon Sellers when I can (and hate how Amazon intentionally confuses Amazon direct with Amazon sellers).

I'd definitely prefer, if you want to add Amazon Sellers, a completely separate column rather than conflating it with Amazon direct. The current site works for me.

Thanks for doing this! We've been trying to track down a new set and eventually just put in an order at lego.com and hoped for the best for xmas delivery (it's fluctuating between 30 days and 2 week estimate), but this is very useful moving forward.
