Adding Item Data to Auction
« on: 2 Mar 2014, 05:24:41 »
So I noticed that when you actually look at the auction you can click on an item and see the stats for like the average price of it along with a graph that shows you how much people have paid for the item recently.

That's great, really. Now I'd like it if we could see that same graph when we're going to put an item up on the auction on our web inventory, otherwise we have no way of knowing what most people are paying for that item unless we put the item up or find it already on the auction (Which with a lot of items they aren't on the auction at the time).

This way you can actually get a good idea on a fair price without flying blind and putting a price that you think is good but when you check the auction prices you see was completely underpriced/overpriced.

I just thought it would help with high/low prices on items, helping give people a better idea on what they should put their items as to get bids.

This is also something that bothered me, and might get people to use the Auction more. Just add an option so we can see the average price history of an item without having to put the item on there.

We do have plans to update quite a few auction things, such as the giving of information about wins to the winners and those who sell the items. This information about a specific item is also something we'd like to do, it would allow for people to follow standard pricing set by players.

It will be added in the near future, for now you'll have to look for an existing auction and check for pricing on those, if there aren't any ask in-game; many people are wise to the good pricing of most items.

To clarify this is something we will be doing.

Thanks Law, nice to see that it's in mind. I don't mind if it takes some time, there's lots of other more pressing matters that I'm sure have been focused on. It's great to know it'll be implemented whenever it is. :D
