| A question about the wanted list.
I have included a red brick 2x3 with price set to the lego price. Require say
100 bricks.
I have also inclued brick 2x3 of any colour (N/A) set to a requirement of 200
bricks.
When I buy all and select the top store does this show different combination
of colours of 2x3 bricks starting with the cheapest price, then the next cheapest
and so on until it makes up 200 ?
Regards
Gary

Hi,
Nope. Unfortunately 
If you search your WL in a store, you’ll be shown all the lots of 2x3 that have
at least 200 bricks.
If you use the Auto-fill options, _all_ the lots will end up in your cart (so,
if there’s 10 lots, you’ll get 2,000 bricks in the cart!).
If you use Auto-select or EasyBuy, the algorithm will choose a lot in a store
with 200 2x3 bricks in one colour.
I’ve no idea whatsoever how that lot is chosen. Tests have proven it’s not the
cheapest in the store, and it’s not the ‘first’ in the store (in any way you
define ‘first’). And it’s even worse (price-wise) if there’s multiple stores
in the selection.
IOW: N/A is okay when it’s just about finding stores, but it’s not good when
you want to ‘buy’ automatically.
Also: just try. It costs nothing but a little time
