list. Then my browser crashed. This will seriously discourage me from using BrickLink
in the future.

When you're in a store, click "Wanted list" under "Shop". It's near the
middle of the page.

Constructive criticism. I like it.

I somewhat agree with all of your points, although finding more than one option
in the auto-finder may be difficult. The list the auto-finder generates is a
'living' list. You can deselect a store from it and it'll generate
a new list of stores below based on what you just removed from your overall order.
That being said, I do agree some sort of "sort by price" option would be useful.
Perhaps if they averaged all of the average prices together and show that? Like
if store a has 3 parts, and they're all 33% over average, it would show +33%,
whereas another store might have 4 parts which are 20,20,30, and 30% over average..
the overall average for that store would show as +25%.

With the price of storage constantly dropping, I think it's time to put an
end to this practice.

Even if orders were "archived" after 6 months and you had to query them separately
from normal orders, I think that would be preferable to deleting them.

I know this is even more of a long shot, and I don't know what your backup
policy is like, but it would be possible to retrieve old purged orders from any
database backups you have and restore them to the current database.
