Options
- Auctions Won Reminder - Reminds you to use or equip auctions you've won after leaving CollectionShop
- Max Item Price - Discard auctions beyond a desired gold amount (mode specific)
- Item Value Source - TradeSkillMaster users can use a price source or custom price source to add the result column "% Item Value"
- Auto-select After Auction Unavailable - Toggles whether to select the next cheapest auction of the same appearance, same pet, etc. when an auction is no longer available.
Bugs & Suggestions
Please make sure you have the latest version and post into the Curse.com comments with details and if possible a screenshot. Thank you for taking the time to report an issue, it helps make the addon better for everyone.
Known Issues
- After closing CollectionShop you must learn the auctions you won to exclude them from future Shop results.
- With the exception of recipe items in "Recipes" mode, items that require a specialization of a profession you've learned (e.g. Gnomish or Goblin Engineer for Engineers) won't be filtered out.
- Alt-Tabbing can reduce your scan speed due to Blizzard's "System > Advanced > Max Background FPS" setting.
- Does not consider connected realms, requires auction data for character's realm.
- Pets - A few require reputation with a faction or individual and won't be filtered out.
- Live scan is temporarily disabled until it can be fixed to work with patch 8.3.0+.
Planned Features
- Fix Live scan feature.
- Filter for uncollected/collected breeds of Battle Pets (suggested by dsmania).
it doesn't work and hasn't worked for a year
it gets stuck while scanning and never shows any results and there is nothing i can do that fixes it

I actually started using Collectionator as it's done by the same group who created Auctionator. It's pretty much 1:1 and does the same things, minus some graphical icons, but also seems to have a few more features than CollectionShop.

hope you will continue this great project :) the filter by level option needs an update :(
Please update the addon where there's an option to not include appearances that require professions that you don't have. This is a must-have for this add-on. It's a no-brainer, even, especially since you have the "buy all" option for us appearance collectors. I keep re-buying the same things and I can't wear them. I have all professions spread across my alts, but they don't wear the same type of armor. I know I'm not the only one to have this complaint.
Is this add on no longer being worked on ? auction house doesn't work at all
Same issue. Scan is also not returning results as expected.. just sits there.
(Also shows "Internal Auction Error" if I close window during scan)
Hi, Since 9.0 whenever i search for appearances and hit shop I get the error "No auctions were found that matched your settings." Despite using the same settings I have always used. Pets, Recipes, Toys & Mounts works as normal but appearances wont work no matter what I do.
Is this a known issue / fix in place for this already?
Thanks!
Please synchronize scan db with auctionator. Every time need to toggle off Auctionator's auto scan before use CollectionShop's scan.
Thanks!
Another error i found with the changed character levels is that the level caps, that can be marked or unmarked, are outdated 1-6,60-70,70-80, etc should be changed to the new level caps. right now only 1-60 works. Maybe use expansion to sort/mark them.
GetItemInfo() returns the expansion info on array position 15.

Im having the same issues as one of the most recent posts, been having the issue what feels like since I downloaded CollectionShop which sucks because I have a buddy that uses it and loves it. The bottom always says scan "Live" and I dont know how to change it. You indicated you have disabled the feature but I have tried everything to get it not to show "Live" so I can run a scan to no avail. Disabled all addons except collection shop and still always shows live. Any help would be appreciated.

Sorry to hear that. I will look at the issue this weekend. Thank you for the report.

I ran into this issue a little while back after not playing wow for about a year and updating my old ui, collectionshop just got stuck in "Live" scan mode anyone having this issue who wants to fix it quick just needs to open their WoW install directory and go to World of Warcraft>_Retail_>Interface>Addons>CollectionShop and open the CollectionShop.LUA file in a .txt edditor find the line "--[[ Temporarily disabled ]] AuctionFrameCollectionShop_LiveCheckButton:Hide();" remove it and save the file, launch your wow and the live tick box will be accessable and you can turn off live scan :D the addon should be working again. even though i currently don't use it i used it for a very long time and think it is an amazing resource to save time for any collector, thank you very much to the authors/creators for spending their time on this addon. :D
In reply to Forge_User_78912776:
Your fix works great :-)
If i use CS, it wont allow me to hit "Scan" only the button "Shop" and "Close".
If i hit "Shop" it will scan for the first Category for roughly 40% and then stop "31 Results so far" and nothing more happens.
No Auctioneer or Auctionator addon activated.

Every time I've tried to use this lately, since prepatch, I've got the current version, I've tried scanning, and it tries to scan, but just sits there, appears to be scanning, maybe? But does nothing. Doesn't freeze, just doesn't do anything. I sit there for probably 10 minutes, and nothing, so I just exit and give up. I'll go back in later, and it'll say it's been scanned, I'll try to shop for say, pets, and each category, and it'll say nothing matches. Very disappointed, I love this addon, I just wish it worked. It doesn't throw lua errors or anything, either.
In reply to hjp426:
Thanks for your comment. Perhaps you have Auctionator installed and it is running a full scan (limited to once every 15 minutes) of its own as soon as the AH is opened. It used to be easy to detect that but not so much anymore as far as I'm aware. I'll find a workaround soon, but you can try temporarily disabling Auctionator before you visit the AH to use CollectionShop in the meantime if you like.
In reply to cmc3215:
Ah yes, I do, forgot to mention that, my apologies. Will try that and let you know. Thank you!
Edit: Yep, disabling Auctionator works perfectly, thank you. Any chance of making the two play nice together? :) If not no worries! Love your addon and can totally make it work!
Just started up using the addon today. After buying one or two items, from appearances, it closes out saying internal auction error. Probably not the addon, but thought I would mention it here.
In reply to lery30:
Thanks for the report! I'm getting that too. Hopefully, there is something I can do to fix it. I'll be looking at it closely tonight or this weekend.
Edit: Version 4.04 - I added a workaround that should keep the Internal Auction Error during the buyout process from resetting the state of CollectionShop.
