This mainly applies to huge amounts of items in the DC at once, but what i'm getting at is this: i understand that maybe it'd be best to have 2 or 3 of the same item on a page at a time. That's fine and possibly allows for different users to get the same item. Finding the one item across the entire page in multiple instances however feels more detrimental as it takes more time for the DC to clear out and it's much harder for the users to find anything different in the large masses. So maybe we could make it so only 2 or 3 duplicates of an item show up to the user in the DC at once and the rest are other items rather than the same item being shown 20 or 30 times?

I'm 99% sure items show up in the order that they're donated and then the pages of stuff themselves shuffle. It would be kind of unnecessary to code in a feature to scramble things further, I think.

Beggars can't be choosers...

best comment ever!

As far as I've experienced, the donation of large amounts of multiples doesn't happen that often, so I wouldn't say it's something that needs to be changed.
