Although it only shows 1 of each item, it fails to indicate how many of that item you have.

What would be the point in showing the quantity ? It is used while taking part of recipes, you should only need to know IDs of items.

 

But as I remember, it doesn't show the full names and that could be bothering.

its also used for transferring ITCs,(stating the obvious) but you dont need to know amounts for that either, but i agree its a bit odd that its "full" details, and doesnt actually give full details

@Syrian: The "full details page" does show the quantity.

Tea leaves (ID: 17446)
resource
Quantity: 5275

 

What it is not shown there is "number of uses".

Also it only shows only one of the items thus for 10GC you'll see only one GC with no quantity.

 

One could say that not showing all the items of same kind is useful, just imagine one with 100 sc ... 100 similar items on the same page.

It could be done, but .. how useful is it ?

It would be useful to generate an ITC that can transfer multiple silver/gold coins for big trades.

ohh, sorry, i was just going off of the initial post and didnt check myself, oops!

I was referring specifically to items that there are multiple of, Gold Coins, and Silver Coins, being two of them. As it consolidates all of the same items into one display, I would expect it to at least say how many of the item it has consolidated; It is the full details page after all.
