| Wanted list and Order lists currently are sorted differently for item name and
color name.
As a result, it's been inconvenient to match parts from order placed to wanted
lists.
Example for item name:
Given a "Plate 1 x 8" and a "Plate 1 x 10":
- In wanted lists, "Plate 1 x 10" will appear before "Plate 1 x 8" (strict alphabetical
order)
- In order lists, "Plate 1 x 8" will appear before "Plate 1 x 12" (correct numerical
order)
Example for color name"
Given a "Reddish Brown" part and a "Pearl Gold" part:
- In wanted lists, the "Reddish Brown" part will appear before the "Pearl Gold"
part (plain colors first like in color selection drop down lists)
- In order lists, the "Pearl Gold" part will appear before the "Reddish Brown"
part (strict alphabetical order)
Now, I don't mind either of these couple of ordering (although I have a personal
preference for correct numerical order for item names and plain colors first)
but I'd like for both ordering to be consistent across the whole BrickLink
website.
Thank you for your consideration!

Are you using the new wanted list or the old one?

It's in the "New" category, the "Classic" is a little rough for me.
