LootAppraiser is an addon which determines an item's value when looted based upon a pricing source you select. It keeps track of all gold asset value of the items in total including a quality item filter. Perfect for farming and determining gold asset value or potential gold-per-hour.
The reason I developed this addon was because while proving out some gold earnings via farming, I was using spreadsheets for post-run calculations on item values and pricing models. Now, I just run this addon, select the price source I want and let it calculate it for me!
Please understand, this addon does NOT determine liquid gold you are guaranteed to make but rather, potential ‘asset’ values of items looted where you will have to do the work and sell it on the Auction House, trade chat, etc.
Price Sources (Dependencies):
There are currently two ways LootAppraiser gets pricing and that is from either/or TradeSkillMaster or TheUndermineJournal.
LootAppraiser will pick up which addons you have installed and the price sources available automatically.
TradeSkillMaster
TradeSkillMaster with the following properly installed, enabled, and configured:
TradeSkillMaster (core) & TradeSkillMaster_AppHelper
NOTE: An important part of this addon is to ensure you are always getting the latest/updated pricing information for your realm or your numbers will be reporting incorrectly. We would highly recommend installing the TradeSkillMaster Desktop application (available for Windows and Mac) available at TradeSkillMaster.com
The Undermine Journal
Another great resource site for analytics and pricing details.

Nice addon im liking it so far , few suggestions.
1. Can you add a data broker to show totals
2. Can you have to stack , when I'm farming ore I would rather see 1 stack fo say 130 ore worth , vs 10 lines of 13 ore worth.
3. Lastly can you make it function without having to have the /la gui open.
Thank you for the comments Dohram. I will check into your suggestions for the next release. The lite version and the gold alert will function without the main UI open. /laa and /lal
This will be fixed in the next release as well. Thnk you for post it!

A solid addon. I have tested it in various farming locations such as Den Whomper cave, Krasarang Wilds, and old raids, and it does what it says on the box. It is a simple, lightweight addon, but it does everything you want it to do, I will deffinitely continue using this, and look forward to seeing what the future brings for this Add-On
Thank you my friend for taking the time to comment. I am glad you are putting it to use and feel free to send me some screenshots of you using it too! Here's to much success!
I will be sending the csv's to your email. But rather, wouldn't it just be easier to load a custom var based on a tsm group? If you write the code to make an ignore list...you should just be able to load the code dynamically from a TSM group. Like i wouldn't mind just making an entire group for this different stuff like pots to ignore. I mean it REALLY depends how robust you want this addon.
As far as custom pricing I was refering to custom price sources. I use quite a few, but just allowing us to write our own might be really hard.
Thanks. I appreciate all feedback and suggestions. The tool as a baseline will always be for farming and loot appraisal based upon pricing but I do like some of the suggestions I am receiving so will expand for sure in future releases. I am very active in development as this is my first released addon and I have a ton of more ideas for future ones as well. I will add you bt when I'm online next.
Hey great addon! It is exactly what I was looking for months. A couple questions/suggestions.
Is it possible for:
Thanks again for such a great addon!
You could also just enable that if you backspace a line in the text field that it recalculates the value :)
Hi devestate,
Thanks for the compliment on the addon and I am glad you are enjoying it and getting some use out of it. It has helped me a lot, especially with post-farming calculations on potential asset value and bag worth. Send me those items of interest you have in mind on ignoring as well as the itemID csv to my email address WowProfitz@gmail.com. I will certainly take a peak and is definately doable.
What types of custom pricing are you thinking about? I could put in a text line for custom pricing quite easily.
All my best,
Profitz
