Search for auctions with a buyout

Bidding on an item I'll outlevel in a matter hours is pointless for me. Is there a way to only see auctions with a buyout, or sort the results to find the ones with buyouts?

    Do this. Click on current bid so that the first ones that show up are N/A. Click next page a few times, you will soon get to the auctions with buyouts, starting with the cheapest.

    This would be a nice-to-have feature, tho.

    It would greatly assuage my impulse-buying habits.

    honestly don't buy anything until level 60. just use the stuff you find, equip anything that says "recommended" and you can hit 60 in about a week, if you're slow (like me).

    as for searching, use the gateway - no really use the gateway. the in-game AH is turrrrble.

    This assumes that the sorting has been fixed in the in-game AH. Has it? (Ignore me, if you're talking about the Gateway.)

    fairly certain this method works in game also

    For the love of all that is holy Do NOT simply equip anything that says Recommended. That feature is so broken it's not even funny.

    It frequently recommends gear that has stats way below the stuff I currently have equipped. Further, it ignores one of your rings and your off-hand weapon.

    BAD, BAD, BAD advice. Always compare the stats.

    Right, it just goes by how much the item costs. So a level 10 blue might cost more than a level 20 green (and thus say it's recommended), but the 20 green will be much, much better (and not be recommended).

    TBH, 1-59 can be done by a TR or CW totally butt-nekkid.

    Last time I checked, sorting in game was still horribly broken. I'll sign in today and verify.

    leveling up gear means nothing, except for weapon. keep your weapon current or within a few levels, and you're fine.
    by the time I hit mid 50s I was still using some level 30s rings and other gear. no seriously it just doesn't matter. unless U BAD or something...

    anyways no, the ingame AH doesn't sort anything... at all. the filters are also broken (showing you level 20 gear when you set it to 60-60) etc. just use the web interface (gateway). that is when it works...

    I'll stream it for 2 million AD. I'll get TR from 1-60 while only keeping my 2 daggers up to date. Furthermore, fairly certain I could do it in 3 sittings.
