TextJoin UDF For Excel 2013

Question

I am trying to utilize a UDF version of TextJoin since I am using Excel 2013 - but this function is not properly returning the accurate data.

My data-set in Excel looks like this

saleID      Item
5           PRE2323
6           Pre2323223
6           OX12321
6           RI132
9           TN23
9           LSR12

And my desired output is

saleID     Items
5          Pre2323
6          Pre2323223, OX12321, RI132
9          TN23, LSR12

And this is the UDF I Have that is not functioning as it should

    Option Explicit
Function TEXTJOIN(delimiter As String, ignore_empty As String, ParamArray textn() As Variant) As String
    Dim i As Long
    For i = LBound(textn) To UBound(textn) - 1
        If Len(textn(i)) = 0 Then
            If Not ignore_empty = True Then
                TEXTJOIN = TEXTJOIN & textn(i) & delimiter
            End If
        Else
            TEXTJOIN = TEXTJOIN & textn(i) & delimiter
        End If
    Next
    TEXTJOIN = TEXTJOIN & textn(UBound(textn))
End Function

And I am calling it in the cell like this

=TEXTJOIN(", ",1,INDEX(REPT(B$2:B$100,A$2:A$100=ROWS(C$2:C2)),0))

And I get an error of #VALUE!

This function accepts both ranges and arrays, both horizontal and vertical

Function TEXTJOIN(delim As String, skipblank As Boolean, arr)
    Dim d As Long
    Dim c As Long
    Dim arr2()
    Dim t As Long, y As Long
    t = -1
    y = -1
    If TypeName(arr) = "Range" Then
        arr2 = arr.Value
    Else
        arr2 = arr
    End If
    On Error Resume Next
    t = UBound(arr2, 2)
    y = UBound(arr2, 1)
    On Error GoTo 0

    If t >= 0 And y >= 0 Then
        For c = LBound(arr2, 1) To UBound(arr2, 1)
            For d = LBound(arr2, 1) To UBound(arr2, 2)
                If arr2(c, d) <> "" Or Not skipblank Then
                    TEXTJOIN = TEXTJOIN & arr2(c, d) & delim
                End If
            Next d
        Next c
    Else
        For c = LBound(arr2) To UBound(arr2)
            If arr2(c) <> "" Or Not skipblank Then
                TEXTJOIN = TEXTJOIN & arr2(c) & delim
            End If
        Next c
    End If
    TEXTJOIN = Left(TEXTJOIN, Len(TEXTJOIN) - Len(delim))
End Function

In this instance you would use it as an array formula:

=TEXTJOIN(", ",TRUE,IF($A$2:$A$10=D2,$B$2:$B$10,""))

Being an array formula it would need to be confirmed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter instead of Enter when exiting edit mode.
