Superfluous, it's just a simple text search with practically useless optional maximum price and quantity settings. All the crafting mats I use are already in my Dealfinding list which doesn't list mats priced over the maximum I'm willing to pay. Personally I have no use for this shopping mode. This part of the module scans the auction for mats you need to complete crafting queues and adds them to a list that hangs off the bottom of the window. It'd be easier to use with all 3 buttons at the bottom shortening the mouse move distance between skip current item and the other two buttons. There are two buttons at the top, Buy and skip (a single auction), and at the bottom a 'skip current item' button which skips all auctions of a particular item. Even if there's only a few hundred under my buy price, I'd still like to see the ones with the lowest price per unit listed first. I find this incredibly annoying when buying herbs, ore and volatiles which usually have many pages of auctions listed. When you're looking at 5000 auctions under your price it'd be nice to see the lowest priced ones listed first instead of listing them in whatever order they came up in during the scan. There's no sorting of the list of found items either, or if there is it's terrible and you only get to see the auctions one at a time so you have no idea if there's cheaper auctions behind the first one. I'd much prefer dealfinding lists be saved seperately from everything else (ala auctioneer snatch lists) or failing that saved per profile.

It means I have to create a completely new list from scratch for every single toon I buy on and making matters even worse when I want to add an item or change a price I have log toons in and out and make the changes on all of them.

There's significantly more time between clicks when mass buying than with Auctioneer or Auctionator.ĭealfinding lists are saved per character. It has a very annoying tendancy to get stuck in loops scanning and rescanning a particular item until you close the auction and start all over again. Buying with it is slower than with Auctioneer or Auctionator. It gets the job done if you only scan a few items but if you scan a lot of different items it's slow, buggy and annoying to use. Basically it's TSM's version of a snatch list. The Dealfinding part of the Shopping module is pretty basic.
