If you genuinely want your collections to always be displayed at the top and their order to never change, then choose to sort by "Title" not "Collections". Then using meme's Kindle Collections plugin, make sure you put a prefix on the collection name like _ (underscore). This will ensure that all your collections appear at the top of the list, sorted alphabetically regardless of the order you access them. If you have multiple collection types (e.g. by author and by series) then give each a different prefix to keep them sorted together as a group. See meme's first post for suggested prefixes and the order they are sorted on the Kindle.
Good point. Though I like my most recent book (the one I'm reading) to appear at the top, so I just re-sort every now and then to bring collections to the front.
