Haven't played p1999 in several months, is there an active auction website that people are using right now?

There's also http://p99tunnel.com, which has less data than ahungry but a much better interface.
Personally I'd recommend checking both (and the wiki) before selling any major item, as they all have different people submitting logs.

and the wiki
I find Wiki to be the most consistent.

You can look at the Wiki, but don't use the Wiki Averages. Actually look at some of the logs because sometimes the Wiki will register 1kpp as 1pp and it throws everything off. This happens quite often.

Right, I never use the average off wiki.

I like to go into EC tunnel and then force people to Roleplay with me through tells. The better the stories they tell me and RP convincing the more I will adhere towards a favorable price to them. Non-Rpers are met with extremely high prices and often rudeness. I have no need for platinum in game and can easily make 5k an hour if there is some need. All this is to say there's literally no need for me to try and save a few hundred or a few thousand plat on trades so my opinion on this matter is probably useless to you, and still I encourage you to adhere to it because the tunnel will become a better place. PM me for advice on new character names, RP-styles, and how to Create Wealth from Rags (for a Price); also WTS Guild name <Kicking Snakes> taking bids starting at 10k

I will sell Kicking Snakes to you for 5k Caiu, only because I believe you are a champion who would make the most of it.
This offer ends in 10:00 minutes

no no, you've got it all wrong.
In EQ, Snakes do the Kicking.
You're leading the Kicking Snakes of Norrath. You're not Kicking the snakes. You're the Kicker... and the snake!!!
This is why, for the next 03:32 minutes I am making an incredible discount available to you.
For only 5k, which is HALF off my original asking price, this is a very special offer, you will finally lead the Snakes to Victory. Cabilis WILL reign supreme, and it will Kick its Way to the Top. This really has tremendous savings for you. I hope you'll see that by buying now, you'll be saving 5,000 platinums. Just buy now for 5k.
See you in EC!

He should take this deal. I seen the names of his guild tags recently and none of them hold a candle to <Kicking Snakes>.

I've got a great testimony from Forums Poster Lhancelot, who confirms that purchasing Kicking Snakes will be a definite upgrade for the Iksar Caiu.
Act now!!
00:59 seconds remaining before this offer closes!

P99tunnel's listings haven't updated in, like, a month or more?
Ahungry is shit, too. It doesn't have half the items I ever try to search for, and the ones it does have often fail to properly load on the next page and I just get 20 lines of the most recent auctions.

You haven't noticed that trend? It's velious items that are not in the ahungry database so it can't accurately search for them. Does the creator play anymore?

Its the same for p99tunnel:

Sadly loving the game enough to create an auction site seems to result in burnout.

it's because the RMT'ers keep attacking the auction sites and it's a pain in the ass to maintain them because of it. The owners need to throttle contributors to limit points of incursion but that also limits their ability to diffuse the responsibility of maintaining the service...
As long as people like Spanky and the rest of the A/A good squads pay their rent by poopsocking this game you're better off logging EC yourself and posting it to the wiki here: http://wiki.project1999.com/Special:AuctionTracker
or do what I do and just keep that info to yourself and make your own parser in excel to track prices

I believe there was a post before I got a vacation that stated the p99 tunnel owner was going to leave the site to a new owner or shut it down or something.
I knew I'd find Lhancehelot in this thread :D

Hey, I couldn't help myself. Skarlorn was offering a once in a lifetime chance for Caiu and I felt like Caiu was letting it slip away.
Sometimes one cannot sit idle and mum. I am sure you concur, my fellow catbrother.
