Need to average data excluding blanks that matches 2 vlookups.

=averageifs()
should do that for the two conditions

rare
= C

BGS 9.5 POP
= E

=averageifs(g:g, c:c , "rare" , e:e, 1)

that will be if rare and 1 on same row

average should not include blank cells

So playing with the formula the problem is happening in the Rarity column. For whatever reason it doesn't want to accept this column. If I change the criteria to color it works with no issues. Any ideas what might be causing this problem?

Will you please attach a sample Excel workbook? We are not able to work with or manipulate a picture of one.

1. Make sure that your sample data are REPRESENTATIVE of your real data. The use of unrepresentative data is very frustrating and can lead to long delays in reaching a solution.

2. Make sure that your desired solution is also shown (mock up the results manually).

3. Make sure that all confidential data is removed or replaced with dummy data first (e.g. names, addresses, E-mails, etc.).

4. Try to avoid using merged cells as they cause lots of problems.

Unfortunately the attachment icon doesn't work at the moment, so to attach an Excel file you have to do the following: just before posting, scroll down to Go Advanced and then scroll down to Manage Attachments. Now follow the instructions at the top of that screen.

Please pay particular attention to point 2 (above): without an idea of your intended outcomes, it is often very difficult to offer appropriate advice.
