I've been using the gold guide for a short while now and I feel that the AH shopping module is atrocious.
I think you need to go back to the drawing board on this one.
I just do not understand why it has been designed the way it has. It feels so clunky and slow.
I've been using auctioneer for years and their buying module is light years ahead in usability. You should seriously look at how they handle it and see if you can improve the Zygor one to be as efficient.
Buying anything via Zygor is just way too time consuming.
With so many items up as singles, which is of course an issue with the darn stupid sellers, if you have to buy anything of good quantity, it can take absolute ages. Every time Zygor finds a new auction, I am left waiting ages for it to rescan slowly through every page of that item.
eg, Just tried to buy around 3200 Blackrock Ore and it's taken me over an hour. Every 5 or so buys, Zygor finds a new auction and with over 100 pages of auctions, you can just imagine how much time is being wasted.
Surely the sane method would be to let us buy all the auctions it found originally and then at the end to do another auto scan for any new ones ?
Or have I missed an option that would actually do it this way and the default is just no good on larger servers ?
Also, every so often the scanner seems to just go into continual auto-scan mode, where it will just continually rescan the item you have been buying and never stop. Not sure why this happens, but the only way I've found to stop it is to actually log out.
