comparing cells and in multiple columns Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,
I have two columns A and B
A has items that have been priced
B has items price (no dollar sign)

Is it possible to have a macro go down column compare the prices for the same item in column A and delete the lowest price

example:

What I have:
car     100
car     200
car     300
boat    50
boat    60
boat    500

What I want:
car    300
boat  500

The list is much much longer than this.....

Thanks in advance!

It will delete duplicate row (when item and price is same) and will delete the lower prices


If ActiveSheet.AutoFilterMode Then
Cells.Select
Selection.AutoFilter
End If

Cells.Select
Selection.Sort _
Key1:=Range("a2"), Order1:=xlAscending, _
Key2:=Range("b2"), Order2:=xlDescending, _
Header:=xlYes, OrderCustom:=1, _
MatchCase:=False, Orientation:=xlTopToBottom, _
DataOption1:=xlSortNormal, _
DataOption2:=xlSortNormal

lrow = 2
Do While (Cells(lrow, 1) <> "")

    If Cells(lrow, 1) = Cells(lrow + 1, 1) Then
        Rows(lrow + 1).Delete
        
    Else
        lrow = lrow + 1
    End If
Loop
