If you do an auction house search for any item it will only show 400 items max. This has the issue that if you sort by say buy out value and the search results displays more than 400 items you will not get the lowest buyout value available.
You can help restrict the number of results by adding different filters such as item name, etc however there are some items that make this difficult or impossible to do such as searching for Indomitable Runestone will include Lesser Indomitable Runestone search results, etc.
To make things even worse you can not filter out items that do NOT have a buyout value assigned... Therefore you are also wasting search results on items that you can't even buyout in the first place!
This can cause an issue where the auction house can be flooded with a lot of items with NO buyout value assigned and then selectively adding a couple overpriced items with buyout values assigned. Then when users enter a search query sorting on buyout value for an item most of the results will be used up with items they can't buy with a couple results being extremely overpriced.
I understand the need to restrict the auction house query results to a fixed number of results however without proper filtering such as having the option to not displaying items with NO buyout value assigned this creates a potentially abuse-able situation...

Would also be nice to have the "Sort by price per item". Having to go through several pages and see if items are cheaper per unit if I bunch a bunch by doing the math for EVERY group of items over 1 takes up a lot of time.
