Hi,
I’ve created a script to make trading on the Auction House easier and more informed, while staying within the current rules. The main goal is to make it clearer what similar items are going for on the market, so you can decide more confidently whether an auction is worth bidding on.
There’s an extra button next to each item in the AH:
Clicking it opens a pop-up that pulls comparable listings from the Item Market. It matches on the bonus element (for example, “Penetrate”), so you can quickly see the going rate for similar items and judge whether the auction price makes sense.
Bonus matching behavior:
- If an item has one bonus, it will show Item Market listings with the same bonus element
- If an item has two bonuses, it won’t try to match the exact pair (those matches are often too rare); instead, it shows the same item with any two bonuses, which still gives useful price context
A couple of limitations (API-related, not script-related):
- It can’t compare against other active auctions, because the AH API doesn’t support active auctions—only closed ones
- Using an external database isn’t allowed, so I’m limited to what the official API provides
Currently, you can get the script for 40m with lifetime access (the price may change, so it’s better to buy now rather than later). For everyone interested I give free 5-days testing period before you decide if you want to pay and use it or not.
