Selling: Simply drag an item into the Sell tab and Auctionator automatically:
- displays a summary of all current auctions for that item sorted by buyout price
- selects the cheapest auction
- sets the buyout and start price to slightly undercut the selected auction
If you're happy with those prices, just click the Create Auction button. If not, select one of the other auctions to undercut, or manually enter prices. With Auctionator, creating an auction is usually just a matter of picking an item to auction and clicking the Create Auction button.
Buying: Auctionator helps you buy items by displaying a summary of auctions sorted by buyout price. That alone makes it much easier to find the cheapest auctions for the item you're looking for. But Auctionator makes buying even easier by allowing you to create shopping lists. Once you've created a shopping list, you simply pick the list from a menu, then click on the item name to see the list of current auctions for that item.
Tooltips: Auctionator has an option to display vendor prices, auction house prices, estimated disenchanting values and disenchanting details in item tooltips throughout the game even when you're not at the auction house. Tooltips are highly configurable so you get as much or as little information as you need.
