One payment, many items. Share a car boot bag, kilo bundle or wholesale box across what's in it, so every item carries its real cost and shows a real profit.
Cost per item is the even split: what you paid, plus fuel or pitch fees, over the number of items. It is the right number before you have looked in the bag and the wrong one after, because the things in a bag are not worth the same.
Each item's share appears once you list the items with a rough sale price. An item worth twice as much carries twice the cost. That share is what to record as the item's cost, and its profit is the sale price minus it.
If it all sells is the expected total minus what the bundle cost, which is the number that says whether the bag was a good buy. If it is small or negative before you have listed anything, you have learned that early.

You can, and the calculator does when you give it only a count. But a £40 bag with one £60 coat and eleven £5 tees is not twelve £3.33 items: the coat is most of why you bought the bag. Weighting each item's share by what it should fetch puts the cost where the value is, so the coat shows a fair profit and the tees are not flattered.
Enter what you paid and roughly how many items are in it, and you get a cost per item to start with. As you sort it, add the items with a rough sale price each, and the shares follow.
Rounding each share on its own hands out a penny from nowhere: three ways of £60.20 rounds to £20.07 each, which is £60.21. The shares here are handed out so they total what you paid, to the penny, because a profit figure is only worth having if the costs behind it add up.
If it is unsellable, take it out of the list. Its share goes back to the rest, which is the honest picture: you paid the same money for fewer sellable items.
Yes. A lot in Vintify is one payment and many items: pull items out as you sort, type a share over to pin it, bin a dud and watch its share go back to the others, and see how much of the lot has paid for itself as items sell.
Sync your sales, manage your stock and see your profit, from day one.
