Quick Auctions 3  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v3.1
by: Shadowed [More]

Quick Auctions is an auction tool to help speed up auctioning large quantities of items, especially canceling. While primarily Quick Auctions is built for large quantities of items, it can work fine for a few auctions as well. A bit of tweaking is required to get optimal settings, but it is very flexible and smart enough that you can use it for more than just mindlessly undercutting auctions by 1 copper every time. Summary window and craft queues are included so you do not have to memorize every item and quantity you need. Shows total materials required to craft as well as allowing you to click from the craft queue to craft so no searching through everything.

Slash command: /qa (/quickauctions)

Donations
A lot of time went into Quick Auctions, donations are appreciated but not necessary. And it's cheaper than buying gold while not being against the ToS!



Groups
Groups are how you manage what items should be managed by Quick Auctions. You can set auction settings either as a default, or per group giving you flexibility over everything without having to duplicate your settings 50 times. There are no limits to how many items can be grouped, see the configuration in /qa config to set them up.

Mail
Includes a timer in the top left of the mailbox indicating how much time before new mail data becomes available, and if you are not using Postal then QA provides its own auto looting for mail. The auto looter will work with the timer on the mailbox cache so it will loot everything, wait until new mail is available and then keep looting.

Auto mailing can now be done per item or per group to any character you want. For example, you can setup your banker to send uncut gems to your jeweler and you can setup your jeweler to send cut gems to your banker. The auto mailer is intelligent in when it sends mail off, and works best when using QA mail looter. If you are trying to loot herbs from your mailbox while auto mailing them to your scribe, it will send mail off whenever it sees your inventory is full. Basically, if you have 4 open slots it will auto mail/loot with only 4 slots, no more clearing out your bags to loot mail anymore!

General options

  • Smart undercutting - Instead of always using the undercut value, it will round it to the nearest gold piece if possible (10g99s -> 10g, 5g -> 5g - undercut price)
  • Smart cancel - Cancels auctions a bit smarter than usual, will cancel an item if you can re list it at a higher price and won't cancel it if items are below the threshold
  • Cancel with bid - Lets you choose if you want to cancel auctions with bids on them

Item options
  • Auto mail - Automatically mail items directly to your banker that are managed by QA
  • Post cap - How many of an item can be up at any one time (If you are undercut this number is reset)
  • Post time - How long to post an auction
  • Undercut - How much to undercut by
  • Bid percent - How much bid should be set to as a percentage of buyout
  • Threshold - Cap on how low an auction can go, if it'll be posted below the threshold price it won't be posted
  • Per auction - How many items to post per an auction
  • Fallback - If no other auctions are up, how much should it list an item for
  • Fallback cap - How high above the fallback an item can go, helps prevent posting a single Frostweave Cloth at 100g if someone sets it at an extraordinary price
  • Auto fallback - If the market price is below your thresold, QA will automatically post it at the fallback price
  • Maximum price gap - How much of a price difference is allowed between the lowest and second lowest items before QA undercuts the second lowest, this will also cancel your auctions if the price gap gets too high
  • Ignore stacks over - Allows you to ignore any auctions with a stack above X when determining price, useful if you want to post against the market price of 1 Abyss Crystal rather than the market price of posting 20 at once
What changed between 2 and 3?
While the configuration in QA2 was an improvement over the original QA, it still wasn't good enough. QA3 has a rewritten configuration and should be much easier for people to understand and use without having to learn to use QA through trial and error.

Scan speed has been increased quite a bit again and has been tightened up to reduce the chance of conflicts. In previous versions, QA would Query -> Wait 0.50 seconds -> Check Data -> Either parse it or wait 0.50 seconds, this made sure that whenever auctions were scanned all data was available including who posted them. The problem is, most of this data becomes available instantly after your initial 1-3 seconds. In 3 it's been changed: Query -> Check Data -> Wait 0.50 Seconds -> Parse or wait 0.50 seconds. Best case this means you will save 0.50 seconds per query (50 seconds/100 items), and worse case you won't see any speed increase.

Mail has been improved to make life easier for people, both a mail scrapper and a smarter mail sender were added. See the mail section above for more information.

Setting scope was improved, most basic options in QA including group settings have been moved to the global profile while server/faction specific settings can still be changed per profile. Letting you setup different profiles of how QA should handle different groups, without having to duplicate all of your group list over and over.
QA3 isn't done yet, and I have more planned still like summary improvements and easy buying of items.

Shadowed:
- Fix positioning of tradeskill frame
- Fixes for 4.3
- Fix tradeskill button positioning
- Should make canceling work again with hardware events
- Make open all work again, add posting back with necessary hardware event work, some initial work on canceling
- Initial conversions to WoWAce, nothing should actually work yet

Ok thanks

I mostly use postal for autolooting all - though sometimes i use some if it extensive other options (like only loot selected items), but i'll try your autolooting now.

Good addon, the only thing i'm missing is the ability to use a larger font size, its a bit small for me to read.

Can you have both installed without them bugging each other out but you have to chose feature the features from one of them?

Selling items in stacks of 20

Hello. This addon is great! I used to put things up the old fashioned way until I found this gem. I greatly appreciate the time and effort you put into this.

The one thing I cannot figure out is how to sell something (say, a stack of 20 flasks) without it either undercutting by a huge amount or pricing it in the thousands. If a stack sells for 95g, it usually prices them at 55g or something ridiculous like 1900g. It works fine for singles, like say I wanted to sell a Cardinal Ruby, it properly undercuts by the amount I tell it to, but stacks do not work out for me. Can someone please explain to me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for your time and help

Hi, Shadowed!

Can you add an option that will allows QA to post auctions at the threshold price if the market price is below threshold price?
Also it will be great if you can add resize corner to the Summary window. Russian item names are to long.

Thank you for this amazing addon

PS sorry for bad English.

They do not, and will not work together.

When I click "Open all" in the mailbox (using Postal), it doesn't collect all the mail that appears after the first automatically... How do i get that to work? That function would be fantastic (I don't have to stand at the mailbox for 15 mins just to get out all my failed auctions).

Could somebody help me with this?

If i press cancel it might say

Very annoying.
I am having this problem as well and it is getting extremely tiresome. I love this addon but this is game-breaking.

Screenshot of the addon canceling my auctions that I JUST posting while telling me that i've been undercut and listing a price that I undercut.. pay attention to the prices it shows of what was canceled: http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/8832/glyphwtf.jpg

When it bugs like this it's an endless cycle, I can repost and it will auto-pop up to cancel, if I hit cancel it will cancel what I just posted.. I go to mailbox and repost.. rinse repeat.

One question

First of all - great addon - i really like and use it much on my glyphs.
I now tried to use it to list enchanting scrolls - but somehow it downs show up any when i do a scan on the AH.
Is that because me Alt is the enchanter and my AH Char tries to scan the auctions or must i have the scroll in his bag to succesful scan it?
I have no problems with the glyphs where as well my AH Char is not the inscriptor - and those glyphs i can not craft are marked corectly with an 'X' - doesnt work on scrolls

Am i doing something wrong?

Thanks for your help!

Hope this hasn't been requested before.

Feature request: a way to alphabetize or sort the items in a group list. For example trying to find a particular glyph in the big list is tedious since they seem to be there in order of addition.

Anyone encounter and solve this issue? Or is it possibly something else? I assume Auctioneer is being used by pretty much everyone and thus not an issue?
Shift + Click the tradeskill and it will open the default tradeskill window where you can access the QA queue from there.
