I have seen a lot of sellers offer multiple different discounts. It would be
nice to have a filter that you can choose the discounts you want to see instead
of just all sales. Like if a shop has different sale percentages at 10, 25, 30,
50 and 75 percent off you could filter for everything above 50%.

Just sort by % off descending.

That could work but I would still have to manually go through them. I use the
want list filter and select the min option to apply in bulk. If I just want parts
at a certain percentage that would not work as the lower sale items would still
be in the list.

If this was common buyer behaviour because a tool allows it, sellers would double
their prices and offer 50 % off on everything.

Some already do that type of thing, and advertise fake sales in the forum.

I think if we had it you would come to see it was useless. If you were choosing
between Walmart, Target, or TRU, it would be useful, but different shops on Bricklink
routinely list things 3-4 times as much as other stores and those tend to be
the ones running sales. You can’t get much of an idea where you will get the
lowest prices by sorting by sale %.

This is a comparison to a created number. There are no sales on bricklink.
Just different prices.
