Yikes, haven't noticed any of that but then I don't keep detailed
accounts, I just accept what shows up in the mail, so I wouldn't even
notice if stuff went missing!

Again, not seeing it, doesn't mean it's not happening though, since I
don't seriously farm the AH, just put stuff up when I'm passing
by.Most of those sound like addon bugs to me, maybe worth pruning the
addons down to very basic ones for a bit, if possible, may not be
though. 

I just use Auctionator and TradeSkillMaster, which both seem ok (and I
don't buy with TSM, only sell; tbh I wish I could get it with JUST the
simple stuff it was a couple of expansions back, when it was enough to
show me what crafts would be profitable to make and autopost them, but
not the complicated mess it is now, it's an absolute nightmare setting
up all those stupid groups but there's no simpler option)

Or they don't run auction addons, not everyone does (and some people
may not have updated/replaced their old one). So the first thing they
see on the search page is the one they'll buy: on less common items
not having an addon doesn't matter since you can compare prices
easily, but if you're selling stuff there's lots of on the AH, then if
someone's looking to buy some and hasn't got an addon which translates
the prices, it's pot luck if they get the best value one or not :-)

Hehe I prefer to just take what i see on face value, much easier ;-)
