The idea behind GlitchRemote Auctions, is to have enough information to make decisions, like how much is selling an specific item, at which price an item is expiring, how much is the price of an item in an auction compared to the “normal” price.
GR servers uses different algorithms to calculate the “normal” price of each item/resource, it depends for example on how many items were sold in the last days, or how many people is trying to sell an item.
In each page you can see at the right of the screen a list of actual auctions filtered by the actual view. So if you are in the market view, you can see all auctions. In the category “Basic Resources” you can see only auctions of that category. And of course in an specific item view, only auctions of that item. The same in the player view.
Examples:

The right panel, has two view options: “All Auctions” and “Best Deals”, the first one shows all auctions... and the second one, shows only items that you can buy, ordered by the amount of currants that you can win (because it compares each price with the “normal” price).
On each auction, at the right side of each one, there is a green panel (for auctions where you will win currants), or red panel (if the price is higher than the normal price). That price difference, is “by unit”.
Note: this panel updates automatically every 30 seconds, each auction that expired is marked with the gray color. and each auction that was sold or is not available any more, is marked with yellow color. And if more auctions can be shown, a button at the top will tell you how many new auctions are available.
I need to finish the page where you can create a new auction... I will update the post when is ready!!
Thanks!
I’m interested to know how do you decide what to sell... do you sell everything? if you have too much of an item? if the price is high? all feedback is welcome!
