    I will second this, although with the clarification that it doesn't need a scroll bar, since there already is one. Right now the list for expert delivery sorts from lowest level to highest level and cuts off after the 29th item. You cannot directly sort the list, meaning that if you have 30+ pink and green items then you will not be able to turn in anything other than the 29 lowest in level without first storing the lower level ones in your retainer. This is especially bad for anyone with a lot of crafting and gathering classes at level 50, since those classes make use of a lot of green equipment that is lower ilevel than the dungeon drops which are the items most likely to be turned in.

    My proposed solution is either or both of:
    a) increase the cap on displayed items to be insanely high (like 100 at least) so that unless you have a ridiculous amount of these items, they will all show.
    b) allow us to sort and/or filter the list. Something like how the repair NPCs allow you to sort by location.

    Tips to help people deal with this for the time being:
    -Switching jobs will slightly resort the list in most cases as long as the pink/green gear equipped on both classes isn't identical. This may let you turn in an extra item or two. This is only really handy when you are slightly over the limit of 29, since it doesn't resort the list much. But it does help in those situations.
    -Keep gear you don't use regularly at all in your retainer. If you are in the position to have access to a FC chest with exclusive permission to a item tab you can use this instead as a much more convenient way to store these items. This is especially true if you only want to temporarily store them for the time you are turning them in, since the company chest is right beside the npc instead of having to run all the way to your retainer. The company chest also will only work with tradeable unbound green items.
    -Instead of using the green 'AF' gear for each DoH class, create a single set of patrician gear. This will cut down on the number of items that will appear in the list by a large margin. The disadvantage is that it's not quite as good a set as the AF.
