Sorting Stores doesn't work properly? Or am I doing something wrong?

I was curious about the biggest stores on BrickOwl.
https://www.brickowl.com/stores

You can sort on 'store', 'country', 'owner', 'feedback' and 'items'.
With the arrows you can arrange them from big to small.
This only works with 'items'
If you try to do this with 'feedback' it doesn't work?
Same for the other columns ?

Kind regards,
Bram.

    You should be able to sort by all the columns except for feedback. Is that not the case?

    I'm not particularly bothered by this, but why everything except feedback? I would only use it to see how I stack up against other stores, but I would have though that the whole point of a feedback score is that a lot of it indicates a good store to buy from?

    I think the original idea was, not wanting to give the impression that customers should only shop in stores with the highest feedback count

    The sorting does seem to be odd or inconsistent; clicking on the little arrows yields mixed sets of results while clicking on the name at the top of the column does seem to sort alternating ascending and descending alphabetically.

    Ohhh. It's a spacing thing. The arrows are divorced in proximity to the column they represent. The arrows immediately to the left of Country are actually the arrows for the Store column.

    Could the arrows be moved to be immediately next to the column head they represent? Either that or add some vertical lines to enclose the arrows in the same cell as the column head.

    Visually the Store arrows look like they belong to Country, Country arrows belong to Owner, and so on.

    And I have no idea what that first column is supposed to represent. Star? That column could stand some explanation somewhere on the page, or label it appropriately.

    Seems to be a case of "it's programmed correctly" but as a visitor I'm not getting the results I'm expecting...and therefore confusion.

    @mfav you are right!

    @Lawrence, I would really like to see what the biggest stores are ;)

    You can see what the biggest store is, but only by number of items.
    And I don't think that feedback is a good indicator of how large a store is. A 'new' store can have over a million items, but no feedback at all.
