    So now, /shops find shows the amount of trades leftover, HOWEVER it now sorts the order shops appear based on "most transactions available " instead of "most recently bought from", which can cause issues because some people sell way more of an item, meaning less room in the chest, meaning less transactions. I think my suggestion is that we need to do something that can prevent it, such as for example going BACK to showing the shops in order of most recent, instead of most transactions, because for example someone who sells 64 of an item in their shop, can hold more transactions than someone who holds 640 of an item, which automatically puts them at the front of the list, which can unintentionally lead to issues where some players won't be supporting shops that give you more for your grass

    Yep I also said about this in game shortly after restart and in the thread linked. People can flood out the shops list with 1 item transactions to hide shops with larger stocks available via less transactions

    I think it should still sort by "last recently used". And group the ones with zero at the end.

    Programmatically, it's a two value sort where the first is a boolean and the 2nd is the last used date.

    They show, but for some reason "Always" say they have 0 remaining trades, and are sorted last.

    Sorting by most recent allows players to push themselves to the front by using alts to buy from themselves.
    Sorting by cheapest first would be great but some shops don’t sell for grass but for iron or something else so they can’t be compared.
    There is no getting away from us players having to do some sort of work to find the best deal.
