PTR Posted 2019/10/09 at 1:15 PM by Squishei

Buying

The middle section, which allows you to type in exactly how many items you want to buy, showing you the total price.

The right section, which allows you to see how many of each item are available at each listed price.

Sell

There's no need to undercut! Auctions posted later (at the same price) are sold first.

Comment by SilmafarionA long overdue and welcome change!Comment by Nikolas90Long overdue!Comment by Matrixwolfpeople will still undercut, they never cared before if they'd both sell as high. Maybe charge a fee to undercutters to stop them?Comment by ArakkoaWhy?Comment by VerudagaI'd love to get an understanding on the decision to have auctions be last in first out at the same price point. Seems like Blizzard doesn't really want to encourage undercutting so much as frequently reposting.

Is this another push by Blizzard to try to take gold out of the economy and up their user activity KPI?Comment by DraconaxReally looking forward to this. I've always hated buying trade commodities, and having to dig through page after page of people selling single item stacks. Like, who the hell is going to buy 1 ore at a time? Thank god this finally fixes that issue. Also interesting that they seem to be getting rid of undercutting as well, which should help keep prices a bit more stable.Comment by DraconaxI'd love to get an understanding on the decision to have auctions be last in first out at the same price point.

no more need for AH addon!Comment by krostymanIm a TSM4 user, and really don't care too much about this revamp, but...

Is this another push by Blizzard to try to take gold out of the economy and up their user activity KPI?Comment by GortuskI hope in the future they add a “Want to Buy” list for the AH. The MMO Wildstar had this and I found it to be a great compliment with the regular functionality of the AH.

Basically, a “Want to Buy” list would be where a buyer would place orders on the AH for stuff they wanted and how much they will pay.Comment by seventhbeaconPenalizing undercutters is a lame idea. Sometimes things get undercut because people are listing things for WAY too high.Comment by joeboe610Since transmog was added to the game, I have always desired the ability to filter out armor/weapons I already own the appearance of. I wish there was a checkbox that I could click so that when I search, it would only show me the gear which I haven't collected appearances for. It would be so much easier to add to my xmog collections that way. I was hoping when I saw the AH overhaul, I would see this option added.Comment by synthea79I hope in the future they add a “Want to Buy” list for the AH.

It's straight-out buyout now, without any bids?Comment by MorbidFableLast in first out is a weird take, and not just "here are the prices"

Interested to see how this works out, but as for so far not a fan.
