CrateValue

Which Waylaid Crate is the cheapest way to earn Merchant's Favor? CrateValue prices every crate's materials from the Auction House and ranks all 30 crates by gold per favor, with the best one highlighted right in the list.

 

Features

Ranks every Waylaid Crate by gold per Merchant's Favor. Filter by tier (Apprentice to Artisan) and sort by any column.

Your choice of prices: its own gentle AH scan, Auctionator, or TSM. Switch with one click.

Real supply check: click a crate at the Auction House and it reads the actual listings, pricing the full amount cheapest-first. Thin markets are flagged so a single cheap stack doesn't fool you.

Set prices by hand: right-click a crate to enter what you actually pay (a farmer, a guildmate). Hand-set prices always win.

Crate tooltips: hover any Waylaid Crate in your bags or on the AH to see what each bundle costs and which is cheapest.

Reputation cost: shows what 50 Azeroth Commerce Authority / Durotar Supply and Logistics rep costs in gold through the Forged Delivery Receipt.

Learns as you play: real favor values are recorded from your own turn-ins, and crate recipes are re-read from the game.

Minimap button and options panel (Esc > Options > AddOns > CrateValue). Also in the addon compartment menu.

How to use

Click the minimap button or type /cval.

At the Auction House, press Scan AH (about 50 seconds), or let it use your Auctionator / TSM data.

Fill the crate at the top of the list.

/cval help lists every command.

 

Notes

Artisan crate favor values are estimates until confirmed in game (marked with *).

Recipe checks read English item text; other languages use the built-in data.

Optional: Auctionator, TradeSkillMaster. No libraries required.
