9 my $req = Net::Amazon::Request::XXX->new(
10 [ type => 'Large', ]
11 [ page => $start_page, ]
12 [ mode => $mode, ]
13 [ offer => 'All', ]
14 [ sort => $sort_type, ]
15 );

18 Don't use this class directly, use derived classes (like
19 "Net::Amazon::Request::ASIN", etc.) instead to specify the type of
20 request and its parameters.
21
22 However, there's a bunch of parameters to the constructor that all
23 request types have in common, here they are:
24
25 type
26 Defaults to "Large", but can also be set to "Medium", or "Small".
27
28 Large The "Large" type provides everything in "Medium" as well as
29 music track information, customer reviews, similar
30 products, offers, and accessory data, i.e. the kitchen
31 sink.
32
33 Medium The "Medium" type provides everything in "Small" as well as
34 sales rank, editorial reviews, and image URLs.
35
36 Small The "Small" type provies ASIN, product title, creator
37 (author, artist, etc.), product group, URL, and
38 manufacturer.
39
40 mode
41 Defaults to "books", but can be set to other catalog values.
42
43 page
44 Defaults to 1, but can be set to a different number to start with a
45 different result page. Used in conjunction with the "max_pages"
46 parameter of the "Net::Amazon" object. "page" is the offset,
47 "max_pages" is the maximum number of pages pulled in starting at
48 "page".
49
50 sort
51 Defaults to "salesrank", but search results can be sorted in
52 various ways, depending on the type of product returned by the
53 search. Search results may be sorted by the following criteria:
54
55 • Featured Items
56
57 • Bestselling
58
59 • Alphabetical (A-Z and Z-A)
60
61 • Price (High to Low and Low to High)
62
63 • Publication or Release Date
64
65 • Manufacturer
66
67 • Average Customer Review

75 "NumberOfOfferings", "UsedCount", specify "offer => "All"".
