Ok.. things you learn by reading the documentation 
Auctioneer has a feature called “askprice” That is, you can set it up so that someone can whisper you asking for your scanprice for an item. Like so:
Can also be configured to take info from guildchat. Pretty damned cool!
I use AuctioneerAdvance Suite. Don’t think i’ve ever used that feature or just aware of it.
I wan’t even that aware it did that. May have to check at some point.
