Hi,
my wanted lists are full with normal pieces and figures. Normally figures are
way more expensive. So when I want to buy all from my wanted list I can filter
the results only for unique lots. But top hits are often only the normal pieces
with no or less figures. If I am able to sort for the full amount the top hits
should definitely include also figures. Is this somehow possible?

I have no idea why there is a filter for item count, store name, min buy and
feedback score. This four filters are way less important than the total amount.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

“Total amount” means nothing if you want 100 bricks and 10 minifigs and a store
has all the bricks for €4 each and none of minifigures (€400 total) while another
store has all your minifigs for €10 each (€100 total)


Two possible workarounds (not solutions) for your problem:

1. Only select the minifigures (can be done in the WL or on the Buy page, in
the Wanted Items tab¹).  You can add the other parts afterward.

2. Click the small lock icon on the minifigures in the Wanted Items tab¹.  That
way, only the stores with the minifigures will show.  And you can then use the
unique lots sort order (unique lots will include the parts).

But I have like 30 wanted lists and everyone contains a figure or not. So it
is a little complicated going through all lists
