Selling food, materials, and other items in the AH can be a pain. If you list items in groups that aren't very large (like 99) or very small (like 1), it means that your item is not likely to be seen by people who use the price ascending/descending function in the auction house. If, like me, you try to combat this by selling items in smaller groups, you spend ages listing items (I've given up selling certain items just because listing them individually just takes far too long, considering how many I make by coli grinding).
I wish there was a way to sort listings in the Auction House by total price and unit price. That way, if there are many postings of, say, (1) Cindershroom for 350t, and I'm selling 50 Cindershrooms for 15kt, they'd see the unit price of 350t per (1) for the first listings and 300t per (1) for mine. It would allow the buyer to decide which to buy, knowing that my listing is a better deal, but you need to buy 50 of them. Without this, most shoppers would've not seen my listing, because I don't know anyone who sits in the AH with a calculator going through every listing looking for the best deal.
This is a lot like unit prices on foods in grocery stores, which are there to help consumers make better financial choices.

Actually, I remembered that I've noticed if you look at your current auctions in the AH, it doesn't tell you how many of the item you have listed at that price. That's a huge flaw in bundle selling imo (esp to check if you mispriced your whole stack for the price of one). So unit price as well as unit amount on that page would be so nice. ;o;
