Am i just crazy to think that the shift key does not work in Inventory list of
BL.
Example. I just want to put lets say just mini-figs on sale, why in the world
do i have to hit each tic box? Why cant i just hit the first one hold shift and
hit the last one.

Am i missing something? It works for me everywhere else outside of BL

It is a technical issue that you will find on almost every web interface.

[Ctrl] and [Shift] only work to extend a selection if the data is contained in
a single control, usually a list control. What you are looking at on Bricklink
is a web page, basically an entire text document, not a single list control.
The web report just contains a bunch of essentially non-related checkbox controls.
Your browser would not have a clue how to interpret your [Shift+Click] other
than to select the text from point A to point B, which may or may not include
the entire set of checkbox controls.

I don't know the seller interface, but on various other pages on Bricklink
at the very top of your list of checkboxes, there is an extra checkbox to click
for [Select all].

This won't answer your original question (hpoort explained that well enough),
but to do what you put in your example, all you have to do is go to inventory,
then sort by item type, check the boxes for everything except minifigures, then
under the "Update Inventory", select the "update availability" and put them in
the stockroom.

Definitely view your inventory by Item Type and you'll be able to select
all of the minifigures by checking just one box.
