I would love a feature where, when auto-pricing, it would warn you (or highlight?) any price that's changing over a certain percent or perhaps dropping below 1 million sP.
For example, I had an item I had priced for 14m, as that was the going price. When I autopriced, it dropped to 300k. A few minutes after I autopriced, it was purchased. I didn't even realize it dropped that low. :( And I have too many items in my shop to really scroll through the autoprice list every time. I definitely didn't want it to be autopriced to that low.
Just a suggestion - I'm going to try and be more diligent in the future to avoid this happening, but it still frustrates me that that happened. Anyways, thanks for your time. :O
I would absolutely love if this suggestion could be implemented! I'm constantly worried about auto-pricing, because there are some people who will go out of their way to underprice items!

Thank you for all the kind thoughts and wishes while I'm in the hospital again!
No, check before clicking the button. Even when I had thousands of items from vending, I always took the five minutes to scroll down my list before to see outrageous price drops.
"I have too many items to take the time to check" is not a valid excuse. Always check before autopricing
To be honest, I don't think this should happen. It's one of those convenience vs security things. I have so many items that it would take far far too long to search through all the prices and I doubt I would do it even if there was an alert or highlight. The autopricer already runs slowly with large shops, if it had to do do an additional step it might just not even run on large shops altogether.
A solution many people have had is to keep high priced items in a separate shop that doesn't get autopriced so they can check the prices themselves.

Please no. I autoprice my shop because I'm lazy and I don't really give a shit if something is underpriced at the time. To be 100% honest, I wouldn't even notice. So I don't want to have to click through warnings for anything that dropped a certain percentage or whatever, I just want my shop priced as fast as possible.
That said, I can't really fault anyone else for being too lazy to check their prices too, but I don't feel like you're able to both be too lazy to check prices, and also care when things aren't priced how you wanted. If you want something to sell for a certain price, double check it. If you want to make sure the prices you're setting are accurate, check it. That's not up to the site to do for you.
I hand price and I have the seventh largest shop on site-it takes forever. It's probably me undercutting you because I want my item to sell before I have to price it again, and IME because autopricing users don't pay attention to whether the item's really worth whatever the first person in the market priced it as, they just follow whatever's there without considering any personal experiance or market forces. If my undercutting you causes my item to sell it also makes YOUR items (finally!) sellable,
If price changes matter to you, don't autoprice. If you think you're more savvy than me and the other hand-pricers, then do that yourself too, more power to you.
Finally, alas my shop will not remain this big, and yours probably shouldn't either. It's been intended that shop-size be limited, even though those limits are not now in place We're a problem, we're sucking up server space. If your shop's too big for you to track on autoprice? Save yourself now the months and months of aggravation that large shop-owners like myself will have to go through and open up another shop.
Just create a second shop to sell your most valuable items in, and price them manually so you can easily see the current prices for them.
It's a nice idea, but people should just be more cautious in general with the auto-pricer. The telling on it is the lowest and sometimes the lowest is a lot lower than the price above it. I think its actually better to look them up in shop search to double check anyways.
I always put any high priced items that I care about the price on, 1mil+ or super rares, into a separate shop. So much easier to check the prices. Also, this way if the item doesn't sell fast enough I won't forget that I have a high priced item mixed in with the other junk items.
