Auction House and Mailbox changes for 8.3

New Auction House coming in 8.3 plus a small change to Mailboxes
All info copied and pasted from Wowhead – link below
Layout is similar but simpler
You can now additems into personal favourites by rightclicking an item you have searched for and adding it to favourites – these will appear on your front page when you load AH
Useful filters added-
Uncollected Only – will help search for any transmogs, recipes or peys you have not collected
Upgrades only – Find weapons and armour upgrades

Auction tabs at bottom have been reorganised into Buy , Sell and Auctions
Buying – Once you have searched for your items, the buy window shows you what is available and the quantity and price is shown on the right.
The sellers names are no longer shown and you will automatically buy the cheapest available. You can either type in the quantity you need or left-click the quantities on the right to buy that quantity AND all the cheaper ones above.
Stacks – The concept of stacks is no longer necessary. You buy and sell in the amount you want.

Selling – The Sell tab has been simplified, especially for commodities as there is no Bid option for them
You can either type in your own price or by default, the cheapest will be selected, the names and/or number of sellers will be shown on the right. Multiple of the same item will have an option to specify the amount. Non-commodities such as equipment also have the option to specify a bid amount.

Last In, First Out – A note about the new LIFO system. This has been talked about a lot in the gold making community. Blizzard want to encourage players to match the cheapest price rather than undercut all the time. You will note the copper amount is no longer available to further discourage this. Whilst the first impression may be that this doesn’t seem fair to the person who posted first, it helps prevent the auction list becoming a long list of similar prices. It favours the buyer for a cleaner interface.

Auctions Tab – Once you have placed your auctions, you can manage them in the third tab at the bottom
Your auctions will all be shown as a list with the remaining duration visible, any Bids you have made can be managed in the Bids tab at the top.
Also, whilst you are searching for auctions, any items where you have your own auctions posted will show as a green tick in the listing.
The Mailbox

And finally, the Mailbox has not been left out in this overhaul. The maximum capacity has been increased to 100, the refresh rate has been reduced to 15 seconds and all AH mail purchases of the same item have been condensed into one mail!
