Wishlists
How to make a wishlist for downloads and digital products
Save a digital product’s original page and write down exactly what you want to get: an album download, a printable pattern or a particular file version. The cover image may look the same across several offers, so make the format clear in the title or note.
Distinguish the download from the physical item
An album can have separate digital and physical offers. A pattern listing might describe a downloadable file or a printed copy. Read the selected offer rather than relying on the page’s main image or the first price you see.
Use a title such as “Album title — digital download” or “Jacket pattern — PDF version”. Keep the creator’s name too when it helps distinguish similar names. For a bundle, record the parts you actually want and whether they are included.
Keep fixed, free and flexible prices distinct
For a fixed price, save the amount and the explicit currency shown for that offer. If you have verified that the item itself is free, zero is a valid amount in Fancies. A missing price is different: leave it blank when you do not know.
Fancies also accepts “Pay what you want” in the Price field. That label carries no numeric amount and is excluded from numeric totals. Record any minimum or other condition in your note. If you instead enter an amount you are considering paying, say that it is your intended amount rather than a fixed seller price.
Check the offer on the original site. “Free preview” or “free shipping” does not mean the full digital product is free, and a flexible-price offer may still have a minimum.
Record what you need to use the files
Before choosing a download, check the format, version and any stated requirements for opening or using it. Leave an unanswered question when a listing is unclear. Fancies does not test files against your device or software.
For a pattern, you might need to check the included size range and printing format. For an album, the question might be whether you want this release or another edition. Keep the note tied to that specific decision rather than copying the whole product description.
Digital product note
Select and copy this note, then fill in what is useful.
Creator and exact title: Digital format / version: Included files or bundle contents: Requirement I still need to check: Fixed, free or flexible price: Minimum / offer conditions to verify: Why I want this version:
Save the public product page
Paste the public product URL into Add item and check any details Fancies finds. If the result refers to a different offer, correct it or leave the uncertain fields blank. A title, source link and your note can make a complete entry without an image or price.
Use the public listing rather than a personal download link, receipt or account page. The latter may be temporary or expose information you would not want in a shared list. Fancies saves references; it does not store the purchased download.
Keep purchases separate from things you have used
After buying an item, Mark purchased moves the saved entry into that list’s private archive. This does not download the files, add music to a listening service or mark a pattern as completed. Keep your files and purchase records through the seller’s normal process.
If your list is simply a collection of articles or tutorials to revisit, choose Links only instead. It hides prices and active purchase controls. Use your own notes to remember what you read, tried or still want to explore.
