In other words the addon provides a fairly good price across all servers. It obtains its pricing information by scanning the auction house of all the servers and calculates a Market and Median price for each item. The Undermine Journal GE addon is an addon produced by The Undermine Journal that calculates a 'Market' price (aka 'Mean' or 'Average') as well as a 'Median' (or middle) price for all the items in the game that it has seen on the auction house. (If you plan to use any of our pricing sources that include 'TUJGEMedian' you have to have The Undermine Journal GE addon installed before hand.)

In TradeSkillMaster 2.0 custom pricing sources must be typed out. These were handled with a drop-down menu next to the old Category/Group Overrides. In TradeSkillMaster 1.0 you had a few options for ways to use something other than a simple gold amount ('295g' for example). Once you get the hang of writing a rricing source the possibilities are nearly endless. These prices can be used for things like sell prices in an Auctioning Operation or buy prices in a Shopping Operation. In its most simple form you can think of a Pricing Source as a little 'math formula' or 'computer program' that determines a price. In TradeSkillMaster 2.0 the creators included a bunch of new ways for TradeSkillMaster to calculate and determine pricing.

To start off a little bit of explanation is in order.

Head past the jump for explanations of some of our most-used pricing sources. TradeSkillMaster Custom Pricing Sources can be a bit complicated so today I thought I would share a few of my favorites as well as explain them thoroughly.
