I looked through and could not find something, so forgive me if I am repeating what has already been posted.
I noticed there are symbols, mostly triangles, especially next to the name of some magic items. Ring of Acid Resistance for example. What do those triangles mean? And why isn't there a key for the symbol?
Also, there should be an option to display more than 20 entries. Maybe 20 can be the default with an option to display 50 or 100.
The magic items should also have a cost associated with them.
It would be nice to simply have a table with ALL (non-magic) items available for sale. You go to a small village, and there's "that guy", the NPC who has a little bit of everything, a couple of potions, some arrows, ropes and torches, maybe some rations, you know, that NPC who knows where the Bulette lair is but finds more profit in selling hapless adventurers their gear then salvaging it - like a D&D pawn shop. Any DM worth their weight has run one of these shops in a long campaign. The point is, rather than searching through several lists it would be nice to have everything in one big table.
I think the issue with putting a value on magic items is in thinking about the economy of magic items in a given world. Is this a world where you can't go into someone's house without tripping over their magical boots, or is this a world where magical boots would be coveted by kings and arch mages and wars would be waged to get or keep such items. Its the difference between a base price of maybe 50gp or 100,000pp or maybe even items no one would sell ever.
I would look at how common the item is in the list and use that as a guide to how to price them for the world you are running.

Come for the old world charm, stay because you can't leave.
The triangle with an A in it is for something that requires attunement. Similarly, a diamond with a C means it requires concentration, and the R in a square (it's a book, but it's a little hard to see) is a spell that can be cast as a ritual.
Green symbols:
A or D on a d20 mean advantage/disadvantage. A + on a d20 means a bonus to saves of some sort. I or R on a shield means immunity or resistance.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head -- some of these will tell you what they mean when you hover over them, but not all.
