摘要

In various example embodiments, a system and method for automatically purchasing multiple items within a budget are presented. A budget order request associated with a user is received by a budget purchasing system. The budget order request includes item identification information specifying multiple items to be purchased and a budget amount for the budget order request. The budget ordering system generates an estimated budget for the budget order request. The budget order system generates an estimated budget for the purchase order request based on the estimated current pricing and determines the estimated budget is within the budget amount for the budget order request. The budget purchasing system identifies listings associated with the multiple items and automatically selects listings from the identified listings to purchase the multiple items specified in the budget order request within the budget amount specified in the budget order request.
