The last couple of times I tried, I echo Nicolo's sentiment above.
The weighting is definitely bollocks. At times, it seems to be based on how much something costs. At other times, it seems to be based on how rare it is. And other times it's based on how desirable it is. But there's no question that they seem to dramatically under-weight a lot of the oddball issues, which are often incredibly difficult to find, at least relative to the mainline issues.
