Integration between CasperVend and Marketplace Listings

I’d like to know if there is currently any way to link CasperVend vendors with Marketplace listings — meaning, when I add a new product to the Second Life Marketplace, it would automatically appear in one or more of my CasperVend inworld vendors.
My idea is to create an inworld gallery-style store, where all products available on the Marketplace are also visibly displayed inworld using CasperVend vendors. Ideally, I’d love to be able to:
💡 Automatically sync my Marketplace inventory with selected CasperVend vendors.
💡 Choose which products appear on each vendor (e.g., categorizing them by theme, product type, etc.).
💡 Allow customers to buy directly from the vendor inworld, while still being counted as a Marketplace sale (or at least maintaining stock/pricing consistency).
Why this would be useful:
💡 Creators wouldn’t have to duplicate every product manually between the Marketplace and inworld stores.
💡 Promotes better inworld shopping experiences, while benefiting from Marketplace organization.
💡 Keeps product info, prices, and availability consistent across platforms.
💡 Encourages hybrid shopping behavior — browsing inworld, buying wherever is more convenient.
💡 Saves time for merchants who manage large catalogs.
If something like this already exists, I’d appreciate some guidance on how to set it up. If not, I think it could be a powerful feature worth considering for future development, especially as Second Life continues to support both inworld and web-based commerce.
♥ Thank you! ♥

Why does this need to be CV integrated only? Can we not just make the process for posting to MP easier? I really dislike the idea of forcing anyone who does not use CasperVend to still deal with the clunky and difficult MP posting system we have already. And I agree, this post seems AI generated.

I'd personally like them to just get rid of the in world scripted redelivery boxes and instead make that pull from the same place the marketplace pulls its inventory from. That would probably do what most of this seemingly AI generated suggestion has. Then they could just use a setup page that is similar to what is used to setup marketplace listings to set up your vendors, that would take care of the rest of it. Which would be nice to see.
There is some integration, but not much, which includes statistical sales tracking through Caspervend. That covers the ability to include marketplace listings already, so most of the third suggestion to some degree exists.
