One has to purchase the books a book at a time, add to cart then return to listed page, hunt for the next book in series, add to cart, etc. very annoying.

There is no method for buying all the books in the series in one go, so in a series list of 25 one has to individually add every book to the cart and browse back to the main listing.

When browsing a series it doesn't display if one has this book in one's collection already.

Does anyone in Kobo buy or browse books in a series ?, obviously not.
I've quite often bought/browsed books in a series. I select the series from the search drop down. For instance, I type in Ring of Fire and select Ring of Fire (Eric Flint) from the options. Either oldest to newest or newest to oldest for the sort seems to sort mostly into series order. This is not completely accurate since there are books in that series that did not have Eric Flint as one of the authors.

If I select a book, it will show that I already own that book if I purchased it from Kobo.
