Price Tracker Updated  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 2.6.3
by: Garkin, uladz
Updated version of Barvazon's Price Tracker.

Description:

General Info
Price Tracker is a simple addon that scans all your guild stores and tracks items and their prices. It then calculates and shows a suggested price on the item tooltip, as well as the minimum and maximum prices and the number of times the item was seen in the stores.

The suggested price can be calculated in several ways (which can be selected in the settings menu):
  • Average: Simple sum of all prices divided by total number of items.
  • Median: The price value for which half of the items cost more and half cost less.
  • Most Frequently Used: The most common price value.
  • Weighted average: (default) The average price of all items which takes in account "Time Value Of Gold". The latest data gets a weighting of X, where X is the number of days the data covers, thus making newest data worth more. Formula is adapted from Khaibit's Shopkeeper.

How to Use:
Initially, all the guild stores have to be inspected in order for the addon to work properly. Simply go to a banker, open the Guild Store menu and click on the 'Scan Prices' button on the left-hand side. This will take a while, depending on how many guild stores are available, and how many items are listed in each guild store. During the scanning process, the 'Scan Prices' button will be disabled. It will be reenabled once all the guild stores have been scanned.

After that, simply select an item in your bag, and if the item is listed in a guild store, it will show the suggested price.

Updating Prices
Occasionally, click on the 'Scan Prices' button again to update the price list with newly listed items.

GitHub repository
Price Tracker is now on GitHub, join us for development, maintenance, and bug fixing!

How to report a bug?
  • The best would be to file an issue on github because this is where all the action happens. One wau or another all reported issues will end up there.
  • Another option is to post a comment on the addon comments page. I monitor the page and will get a notification once you post something there.
  • And of course you can send me PM @uladz. You have any questions, issue, suggestions - don't hesitate to reach me out.

Changes in "Updated" version:
  • Updated LibAddonMenu-2.0 (r16)
  • Updated LibStub (r2)
  • Moved "Scan Price" button so it will not interfere with AwesomeGuildStore (this is used from Price Tracker (revised by) Draconeran)
  • Improved tooltip format
  • Changed Weighted Average formula to put more weight on recent prices (formula is adapted from from Khaibit's Shopkeeper)
  • Added simple Average formula
  • Fixed code for Most Frequently Used formula
  • Added slider to choose how long you want keep prices in history (default value is 60 days)
  • Fixed OnLinkClicked handler
  • Added tooltip information to slottable items list (ZO_QuickSlotListcontents)
  • Added tooltip information to charge/enchant/research item lists (ZO_ListDialog?ListContents)
  • Removed debug message for quest items (ZO_PlayerInventoryQuestContents)
  • Slash command /clean now accepts argument "days", if argument is not specified, default value is 30. Example: "/clean 60" will remove all prices which are older then 60 days.
  • Addon now checks item quality when searching for matches.
  • Removed redundant entries in saved variables, so it should be 20-25% smaller.
  • Corrected guild name in saved data when using guild trader (kiosk).

Thanks for the work on this mod !

I've tried the mod out and there does seem to be an issue, with Guild Store Search. Seems everytime I do a search of all my guilds in GSSE, it increases the size of Price Tracker. I kept getting Memory warning even though I set my memory amount to '256'. Turns out Price Tracker file size had grown to over 60 meg, in under a week of use. Atm the only solution I could think of was to delete the 'Saved Variable' file and start over.

I really like your mod, is there anything I can do to prevent the massive growing file size?

Thanks for any tips.

Edit: Price Tracker also seems to cause a 'crash to desktop' when used with Guild Store Search Extended. Every time I do a Retrieve, then zone for example to Thieves Refuge or another quest zone it crashes. I can speak to the banker, but as soon as I try to open GSSE, crash.

I use Guild Store Extended, was wondering if this mod would add functions or are they basically the same? The suggested price to sell an item, seems like a great idea.

Hi,
Is there a keystroke to display the price tracker info in the chat window - I keep seeing prices displayed in chat window by some peeps or are they using a different addon?
many thanks

I scanned about 20 traders, some very big (one had more than 100 pages), ending with a SavedVariables file of more than 66MB...
I guess that is too much as it destroys all data every time I log off the game...

I can restore it from Previous Versions in Windows, and it's 66MB.
I start up the game and log into a character. No Price Tracker data is shown.
I log off the character. Now the SavedVariables file is only 1KB...

It is doable. However if I have to add it, I will need test how trading house purchases work. At this moment I have no idea how to get itemLink for purchased item.
I know you are busy, but if you can do it and add it as an optional choice I would appreciate it.

To clarify, I don't want to clear the saved variable. I'd just like anything I purchase to be removed from the saved items. I sent you a private message with more details/justification.

If you want to reset your saved data, use slash command /reset instead.

This issue should be fixed in version 2.6.1.
