Add "Item Location" field to automatic keyword searches in Marketplace

I was wondering if it would be possible to add the "Item Location" field to the fields that are scanned for saved keyword searches in the Marketplace.

A while back I added "Indiana" and "Indianapolis" to my list of keywords so that I would be notified whenever some Pentax gear was available locally. However, it doesn't seem to be working, as I just noticed the following listing, which lists the Item Location as "Carmel, Indiana", but I did not get any notification:

Thanks!

The way the system works right now, it won't send you a notification unless the keyword appears in the thread title or at least twice in the post. I'll be looking at ways to improve this going forward.

I'm happy to say that I've tweaked the system so that you'll receive a notification if any of your keywords match the City/State field. So matches for "Indianapolis" should trigger an e-mail now (but only for future threads, not existing threads)

Awesome! Thank you so much!

It may be worth posting in the announcements section, so that members can connect more often with local Pentax sellers in the future.
