Why do you use <insert other trade addon here>?

[IBankAlt]

I use auctioneer for one off items, DE search, vendor search, real time search, and enchatrix (for DE purposes, I've been burned too by destroying)
I use auctionator for my snatch list

[Cryan]

I'm using Inventorium to keep track of my pet, recipe and other stock. (id realy like to see this, together with the dumpster functionality)
Im using Dumpster like everyone else is using it now, but geemoney is working in that.
Postal and Mail Opener to control my mail and to start opening my mail once i click the mailbox
Bankstack to sort my bags
Auctionator for my shopping lists, still have to redo them in TSM.

edit: Stickied

Dumpster - Fast movement with macros
Auctionator - Lists
Auctioneer - Only reason is for a private addon called pipeline only works with auctioneer
Panda - Seems easier and faster than TSM
Postal - I auction 3k to 5k items at a time no way Im not using this
Marketwatcher - Allows me to evaluate new items for volatility easily and without pen and paper tracking
Bagnon - Just basic bag management

I have replaced the following
Altholic
Lil sparkys work shop
auction profit
A few other crafting oriented addons I can't recall right now

Still using Auctionator; too lazy to transfer over my buy lists.
Still using LSW, since it gives me an at-a-glance check to see whether something's not right.
Still using Altoholic since I'm used to it.
Using Auctioneer for resale searches and vendor searches. TSM is way too clunky and complicated on these kind of tasks.

[MoxNix]

Auctioneer for powerful flexible search filters and sorting functions, very large snatch lists, real time search and the protect auction window feature.

Auctionator for general purpose buying. It's fast, efficient and intuitive to use.

Dumpster for moving items in and out of banks.

Bankstack for sorting and stacking items in bags and banks.

Postal for opening mail.

Ara Broker Money to keep track of my gold across all alts.

Macros for Disenchanting, Milling, Prospecting and bulk mailing BoE greens.

Macaroon! bar/macro mod for button bars and bigger macros (4x bigger IIRC).



Regarding buying with Auctioneer and Auctionator, they take completely different approaches to buying and each works very well for different purposes. Auctioneer is great for working with huge comprehensive snatch lists to scoop up rare or obscure items you don't find every day or buy all the time as well as the usual stuff you're always buying. Auctionator is quick, simple, efficient and very intuitive to use, it's perfect for buying things on the fly with quick searches of both individual items and small lists.

TSM's old buying module was similar to Auctioneer but missing the things that make Auctioneer so powerful, search /sort filters and functions, real time search, snatch lists, etc. It also only listed one auction page of items at a time rather than all of them.

The new TSM buying module is similar to Auctionator only slower, clunkier and not as intuitive to use.

OnceClickBuyOut - I herb on a tauren druid and move all the herbs to my alliance Inscriptionist. I need to buy the items fast from the neurtal AH with my 2nd account.
MultiAuction - again, for moving mats through the neurtral auction house. It lets me post items all at the same price (1 copper). It lets me queue up all my inventory (since all the selling character has is stuff I just farmed).
Auctionator - for selling stuff that I don't want to setup inside TSM, that I simply want to undercut everyone and get rid of the stuff.
Panda - for it's automatic milling. TSM's destroy module is too slow for me: for some reason, TSM has a short delay after each milling.
Postal - opening all mail except those that expired. I want to look at the expired ones to see if I need to adjust TSM pricing.

[Geemoney]

@fireymerlin clearing the results table periodically will get rid of that delay.

No one mentioned the best WoW add on: Excel. Analysis of very obfuscated markets with regular, possibly automated data import is incredible. Probably only Pilaski's CKS script is more of a game changer when it comes to WoW finance. Outside of just the finance side, excel/simulators are heavily relied on for PVE/PVP as well.

I do actually remember seeing an excel-like SS addon. I don't know if it was any good or if was even maintained still, but it does make you wonder...

[Moneypenny]

Auctionator to deal with everything that is not listed like transmog items.
Postal because I have toooooo much auctions.
Auctioneer for the real time search.
