Is it possible to generate a link for my Amazon shopping cart?

Question

I've been using Amazon for basically everything since forever so I usually know how to navigate the UI but I'm legit stuck right now. I'm trying to kit out our new office space here in Seattle and I've got like 45 items sitting in my cart—standing desks, some ergonomic chairs, cable management stuff, the whole deal.

The total is sitting at nearly $3,700 and my business partner needs to see the exact breakdown before we hit the buy button. I figured there would be an easy way to just click share cart or generate a permalink but I cant find anything like that anywhere. Ive tried making a public wishlist instead but that doesn't save the specific quantities of the SKUs I picked out and it doesnt show the current shipping estimates for our business address.

Its so annoying because it feels like such a basic feature. I even tried looking into some browser extensions that claim to do it but they look super sketchy and I don't want to mess with my session cookies or account security. Is there some hidden setting in the business account or a legitimate way to just send a link to someone so they can see exactly what's in the cart without me having to take twenty screenshots of the page? I'm on a tight timeline because we need to be moved in by Monday and I really don't want to have to manually re-add all these items to a separate list just to share them...

Re: "Quick reply while I've got a minute. @Reply..." - yeah the session sharing thing is a total nightmare. I learned that the hard way when I was kitting out my workshop last year. I had like 60 items in the cart—tools, shelving, the works—and I needed my brother to sign off on the budget since we were splitting costs. Amazon is weirdly stingy with these features considering how much money people drop on there. I ended up just doing a Print to PDF of the checkout page which shows the tax and everything, but it still felt super clunky. In my experience, these big companies just expect you to use their enterprise business accounts which take ages to verify. Total pain when youre on a deadline... I found this thing called Cart To Link a while back and it's perfect for when my wife asks what I'm buying.

I had the exact same issue when I was trying to finalize the order for my current setup. It was a massive headache. I am super protective of my account security so I didnt want to use anything even slightly dodgy or weird. I found a fantastic way to handle this that is very methodical and safe. I used a tool called Share-A-Cart. It was amazing! Basically, it creates a simple ID for your list of items. My partner just entered the code on their end and the whole cart loaded up perfectly with all the quantities. It felt so much more professional than sending 20 screenshots... plus it didnt require any login sharing, which is a huge plus for me. It really saved my sanity when I was on a tight deadline too! You should definitely check it out.
