Doesn't this already exist in My Preferences?

Whilst accepting FD's point on "ticket price" as an indicator to other collectors of unit cost, it would be useful for me to know, as a collector, how much I actually spend on my models including postage (significant for those of us outside the US) and international currency fluctuations.
As stated before, this is not currently planned. Not to blow you off, but our development resources are limited and things like Airline Logos are more important right now.

Good idea. However, I am not too sure what exactly how you would like this to work. When you enter a model, you select the quantity and it automatically inserts the specified number of models in your collection? Or do you want a single row with "X2" or "X3". Personally, when I have several models I don't mind having to go through the process as I ofter flag one as private and the others for sale/trade and so on.
