We all have money issues….but with the Auctioneer addon, the issues are much smaller. I came to this server penniless and alone…well except for Finwë, but within 2 days and before we even hit lvl 10 we both had over 10g from some slight AH activity… we probably could have made more, but we decided to actually level toons first so that we could have fun with you guys and have somewhere to spend all that loot!
When you go to the website do to downloads, preview version, and then scroll down and download the auctioneerFullSuite. install into your addon folder and get ready to go!
Once you log in, go to the Auction House (AH) and open a window… you should notice a diffrence right away. The Auctioneer system is designed to accumulate a data base to compare prices and make sure you get the most competitive prices and that your auctions will sell. It does this by scanning the auction house. When you first open the AH window you should see a “Scan” Button at the lower left hand side of your window. 
This allows Auctioneer to scan the entire content of the auction house and add it to its database. Trying to do this everyday for at least two weeks is a great starting point so that you get a really nice accurate database to work off of…after those two weeks, just whenever you can is fine. If you don’t play everyday no worries, just a few times a week will do it. 
After you finish scanning you can begin posting your auctions. Auctioneer will use its database to suggests prices for each item you want to sell. These are great guidelines and you should stick with them at first. 
A great feature in there also is that if you just finished farming somewhere and you have multiple stacks of wool or something, you can sell them all at once, no more of this individual posting. Just set one stack on the sale window and then near the bottom you can tell them how many of the item you want to sell.(this photo doesn’t show that option, but its there!)
Now that you’ve cleared your bag out and are ready to start the buying process go to the “Bottom Scanner Button” You can configure it to your needs (Hopefully if you have a bank you are already a enchanter, although you don’t have to be…) you can set it so that it will look for disenchant items, resale items, vendor’s items etc. )
Once you have it set to match your skill and needs, hit the “play” button at the top left corner… in moment or so it should start poping up items that it recomends you bid or buy. In the pop up it will tell you its reason, how much it thinks you can make off the item etc. From here you just buy bid and enjoy. Make sure you leave youself enough money to post your auctions when you get them from your mailbox.
Also a last comment, when you go out questing you’ll notice as you scan over your bags you’ll see a bunch of information on each item. This is auctioneer letting you know how much each item is worth, so if you run out of room you don’t throw away something worth 20g!
the preview part isn’t really there…sorry for these pictures… i didn’t grab any off my computer before i made
