From what I've read UMJ scrapes the AH of every realm about once an hour and provides that data on their site. Why do I say UMJ "thinks"? Because of how UMJ works. ![]() ![]() What we get with thse two sections is a rough idea of items that UMJ thinks we may have sold as well as well as items it thinks we have up for sale. In between the top and the bottom are lots of other interesting charts and data but for me these two sections are where the meat of the data I want to know is. Now that we have our character's bookmarks set up and we are excited to become paragons of efficiency what use are they to us? The seller pages on UMJ provide a few key pieces of information as well as links to other pieces of powerful data.īy scrolling near the bottom of the page we can see perhaps the two most important sections: "Sold Items" and "Current Items". If you need to change the faction/server do so by replacing the H with an A (or vice-versa) or replacing the server name. Repeat this with as many characters as needed. Once the new URL has loaded you can then bookmark this URL as well. (Note, the URL is case sensitive so you must capitalize the character name.) To see (and bookmark) the page for another character we simply have to replace their name in the URL in the address bar of our browser. The character name is at the end of the URL. I've highlighted the URL in this screenshot to give us a better idea how UMJs URLs are set up. Now that we have our first character there is a neat shortcut that will allow us to add more characters from the same faction/server very easily. We are going to want to bookmark this page with our web browser ( example URL) and keep the bookmark in a handy spot so we can come back as often as we want to. What ever the case we now have what we need, the URL to our character's auctions page on UMJ. Perhaps he is our bank alt or perhaps our crafting alt. Now let's assume this is the character I want to be able to keep tabs on. (In this example I searched for the character "Abitim".) This search will bring up the seller page for this specific character on this specific server/faction. We are now going to search for our character by using the search box as shown here (red highlight is mine). Here I have chosen the Horde side of the Alleria server. I apologize if, by some miracle, it's your character. (For this guide I will be choosing faction/server/seller at random. We start by heading to The Undermine Journal (UMJ) and finding the faction/server our character is on. I like to have one bookmark (which I keep on my bookmark bar for easy access) for each of the characters I regularly use for auctioning. ![]() ![]() Setting up the bookmarks for each character will be out first order of business. Using this technique will allow you to do more in less time as you won't have to even log out of your current character. Today I'm going to be discussing how to use UMJ and web browser bookmarks as a fast and easy (although slightly less accurate) alternative to Blizzards's Mobile Auction House for keeping tabs on your own characters auctions. It had become a very useful tool before it went offline and I'm finding myself using it in more and more ways every day. I was so glad when I heard that one of my favorite gold making tools, The Undermine Journal, was coming back on line. Utilizing Undermine Journal Browser Bookmarks
