New Magincia Bazaar "View Inventory/Remove Items" navigation arrows.

The commodity brokers "View Inventory/Remove Items" menu seems really buggy or non intuitive with the "down and up" arrows.
1. The "Down" column has a bunch of up arrows in it that move things up.
2. The "Up" column has a bunch of down arrows in it that move things down (sometimes).

The down arrows in the "Up" column don't seem to match up with what you are moving.
I believe that the Down and Up column headers are actually reversed in this gump and I have submitted a problem report on this issue.

With the image below I'd think the down arrow icon in the "up" column (red arrow pointing to it near the UO cursor) would move the "pieces of horned leather" down. To move the pieces of horned leather down you need to click the third down arrow icon in the "up" column.
I was not able to reproduce the second "down arrow" issue you are describing when using either the classic client or the EC. In all cases I was able to use the ‘mislabeled’ down arrow to move the item down further in the list. Are you still seeing this issue? Had you tried anything out of the ordinary with the broker inventory recently? Had someone purchased or sold you some horned leather while you were interacting with the broker?

Couple other things -

1. I haven't been able to figure out how to "remove" a listed item from the inventory. If you withdraw all of the stocked items does it remove it from the list? I see the item going down to 0, would be nice to see what other users see.
If you remove all stock of an item from the broker, it does not remove it from the broker list. This allows you to continue to purchase these items from other players using your broker.

2. When setting "selling" limits, if you match the limit to the amount of stock you're items are not for sale. To be able to sell the items your selling limit must be set to 0. When I originally set it up I thought you had to set the selling price and selling limit, had to get someone else in game to test it with me. Again it would be nice to see what other users see when shopping at my broker.
The sell limit basically sets the threshold for selling items. If you want to sell all of the items, you enter a sell LMT of 0 indicating that you want the broker to keep selling until it reaches 0. If you have say 100 items on the vendor but are only willing to sell 60 of them (for whatever reason), you simply set the selling limit to 40. You can use this to try to buy low and sell high; setting the broker up to buy 1000 of item X at 100 gold and selling up to 500 of item X for 200 gold. We tried to allow player to set up these brokers as both purchase points as well as sale points.

To remove an item from the sales list, simply set the items Buy AT, Buy LMT, Sell AT and Sell LMT amounts to 0. When these values are set to 0 then these items do not display for the customer.

I hope this information helps in some way.
