I have a character that's just got to Booty Bay and needs to sell some ore etc at the Auction House. I started off trying to use "Auctioneer" and the AH kept returning a "nothing found" to every request including staples like linen cloth and light leather. I disabled all "Auctioneer" add ons and used the basic selling and buying built into WoW and got the same result. Is this a result of the latest patch, or am I doing something wrong?

Most people only use it for transfering items to their other faction toons. SF

Better to travel to the regular AH if you want to sell normal things like cloth.

There were also some problems with the AH after the patch. Though I think that was the mobile AH there may have been some other AH effects. Are you aware of banker alts? Just position a lowby char in a major city near an AH/mailbox and mail everything auctionable to them. Saves a lot of running back and forth to capital AHs. Also useful for storage in their bank during market lows , storing profession mats, shopping for mats, storing items you snapped up cheap. Give them a guild and then a guildbank and they are useful warehouses.

Having 0 items on it is pretty normal. Incredible. I've been playing this game for what seems years, and I've just learnt that. Thanks to everyone for the replies.

Few people use them, so few people look at them. They may have the zone specific hand-in quest items dumped there just for convenience but most chars are alts on the rocket road and they outlevel zones faster than the old grind chains are completed. The only real use is cross faction trading Harde<->Alliance, e,g, 1 ore for 10000g if someone wants to move cash to the other side and doesn't mind the cut. Those figures used to mess with AH price database but most now ignore outliers and segment the 3 AHs. Beware if you put something up cheap for transfer, sniping bots can grab it and Bliz do not consider it stealing/cheating. No recovery, you put it up and you lost it, bad luck. You can't trade between the same account chars. You need trusted friends or multiple accounts to cross-faction trade. For large cash and item moves without the huge cut you can apparently accumulate items/gold with a lowby pandaren mule before faction is set. I haven't tried the pandaren ***and all this is stale info***, google it if you dare to care :-)

If I look for anything, it takes a long ass time and nothing shows so it seems to be all AH's. I don't know if this is on all servers but I know for sure it's happening on Earthen Ring, Azjol-Nerub and Anvilmar.

I took it out and the problem was solved.
