Is there a place that has all of the shops and what they potentially offer somewhere?  If not is that something we could make?  I'm thinking like a sticky post that we update.  It could allow for a spot for shops to "advertise" and rules could be put on the post like 'only one post per shop', or 'shops can only update when they update their shops.  I certainly wouldn't mind doing some of the legwork by contacting the other owners and promoting the post a little...?

I know it could get very chaotic very quickly, so there would have to be some structure, but I think it could be not only doable, but also very helpful

I suppose alternatively there could be a wall by each of the districts with a sign that states the basic items sold, or even important items in the shops.  I feel like this would be more difficult to maintain, but ultimately easier to use...

While I think that is a great idea, it would be a nightmare to maintain. When I'm looking for an item, I usually run around a loop through the districts, usually going behind the first shop in, and use the /qs find command at least twice per district. So, if I were looking for apples, I would use "/qs find apple" and when you're close to a shop that contains apples, it will point you in that direction. It takes time and some running around, but I usually find the item I looking for assuming I have the right item name.

Things to keep in mind are the sub-type items. Podzol and Mycelium are both a type of dirt. Andesite, Granite, and Diorite are types of stone. They're usually referred to as "Dirt:3" or "Stone:2", etc. Those items can be a bit trickier to locate.

Thanks Ebi. I didn't know this. I have spent hours running in circles in the mall trying to find things.
