With so much transmog fun my wife's equipment manager is filling up with sets. She recently sold some gloves that belong to one of her transmog sets. I was looking to write a small add-on that does just one thing, prevent the sale of equipment set gear, but your add-on handles everything vendor related so nicely that I decided to ask you first.

Do you think it would be too hard to add an option to the save list to save all equipment sets and have the list auto-update any time an equip set changes? Is there even an event for that? I figure if the right event is available the best approach would be to have a separate equipment save list, to avoid clearing a saved item that was manually marked for saving and then in the save implementation parse both save and equip lists.

I'd really appreciate your input.

thanks for such a great add-on.

The addon still seems buying items from vendors that the vendor sells as stacks incorrectly. The fix mentioned below still works (though the line number has changed), but while you're updating the TOC for 4.3, it would be nice to have this fix officially put in.

While I'm commenting, this addon has, by far, the best interface of any of the vendor autobuy/sell/repair addons out there. It looks like it's part of the default WoW interface.

to fix, change line 342:


-- maxStack = GetMerchantItemMaxStack(i)
_, _, _, _, _, _, _, maxStack = GetItemInfo(name)

This is do to Blizzard using Glob style matching rather than a more exact matching system. It might be possible to code around, but afaik, there is no way to be certain you have an exact match, so... Yeah. Don't put things in the list by name unless they're also restricted by another value.

It's kinda something you should know about for anything you do; if you were king Fortune Tellers and there was a Fortunate Soul you shouldn't attack, if you were typing '/target Fortun' will get both of them. It's just worse when you have something named 'Ancestral Coin' and 'Gold Ancestral Coin'. If you're trying to match 'Ancestral Coin' there is no way through name matching to not match 'Gold Ancestral Coin' as well.

As a note, I can remove this bug by commenting out lines 336 - 338

-- if (batch > 1) then
-- qty = floor(qty/batch)
-- end

Apparently in the new merchant ui, you buy items one by one, even if the vendor lists them as stacks of X (eg. Crystal Vials is shown in stacks of 5, yet you can buy them one by one)

So if you're having problems auto-buying items that appear in a stack at the vendor, comment out the lines as above and it's done!

I just lost 500 gold because of this addon...

Do NOT add Fortune Cards to the sell list if you don't want to sell your Mysterious Fortune Cards too...

I opened a ton of mysterious cards and went to see the regs, and all the opened AND unopened ones were sold. Unopened first, so no way of using buyback....

EDIT: I even added the mysterious to save list and it still sells them.

I was having the same issue with dragging the item to the sell/but/save window list giving me the dialog if I am sure I want to destroy the item. I figured out what I was doing wrong. Still would be nice if the add-on supported the difference.

Here is what is going wrong. In the blizz interface we are used to click and item in inventory and the item becomes bound to our cursor. We then carry this item and place it in a new slot or action bar by clicking the spot to place it. This action as it turns out is NOT dragging an item .

For this addon to recognize the drag, you must actually drag the item. That is click and hold the mouse button on the item you select and do not release until the cursor is over the button for save/sell/buy. This will add it to your list .

Hope this helps other users. I've found this addon to be of great help to me. I had not previously used the save list feature as I mostly depended on its auto sell grey items. But with the imminent archeology price changes, I'm using the save list quite a bit. After all every little bit of gold helps .

I think this may be a miscommunication about how to use the mod. At first I thought you had to drag the items to the tabs while they were open. It took me a little while to realize you were supposed the drag to the icons for the tabs. You should probably support either one actually.

I play in Australia, and I think that uses the US client as well.

"dragging an item to the buy/sell areas added by this mod simply asks me if I am sure if I want to destroy that item"

Still happening on 4.03 live, no other addons enabled.

Hey Maul :]

Loving this mod! It actually works with xMerchant AND Skinner, so that's a huge plus. The menus look great, everything works pretty much like I would hope, so thank you very much for putting it together and keeping it updated!

Just a couple of things:

I didn't notice an options menu or a slash command config to change auto grey selling. I do have some vanity grey items that I like to keep around, and I didn't find a way to either turn off auto-selling OR add items to a whitelist before interacting with a merchant. This is a feature I would like, if it doesn't already exist where I can't find it. Some mods place a button in the merchant window, either next to the repair button or up in the top right corner (see DropTheCheapestThing or Scrap) that allows you to sell all greys and anything on the blacklist if you have auto-sell off.

Also, items that are bought in stacks of 5 don't seem to be handled quite right. Let's say I want to buy a stack of 5 refreshing spring water. I don't have any in my backpack, so I tell Vendorizer to buy one water. Nothing happens. I tell it to buy 2, 3, and 4, and nothing happens. But when I tell it to buy 5, it buys one single water. I don't actually know how it's doing this, because refreshing spring water comes from the vendor in stacks of 5. 6 buys 2, 7 buys 3, and so on. I don't seem to be getting any error from this.

Disabling all mods does not seem to help with either issue.

Thank you very much for your time and support =)

I'm having the same kind of issue when auto buying Dalaran Brownies. I have it set to 20, but it buys 4.
stack size is 5
