Held back from the rankings

These moves would have ranked above, but their own daily data does not support a market move: the median on the first or last day was a listing wall far above the cheapest listing, the new level shows up on a single day, the cheapest listing did not move with the median, or the item was barely listed on an endpoint day. They stay here, with their observed values, rather than headline the report. 243 were held back this week; the 20 largest are listed here.

Commodity	Week start	Week end	Change	Why it is held back
A Whole Lot of Nothing	15 gold	6,744,423 gold	+44962720.0%	On Aug 30 the median listing (6,744,423g) was 1,226,259 times the cheapest listing that day (5g 50s), so most listed units sat far above where the item was available. The week-end level (6,744,423g) appears on Aug 30 only, with no other day in the week near it. The week-start level (15g) appears on Aug 24 only, with no other day in the week near it. The cheapest listing moved the other way (about 2g 99s over the first 3 days, 1g 98s over the last 3), so the median reflects a listing wall, not the market.
Midsummer Ground Flower	97 gold99 silver	3,214 gold74 silver	+3180.7%	On Aug 30 the median listing (3,214g 74s) was 129 times the cheapest listing that day (25g), so most listed units sat far above where the item was available. The week-start level (97g 99s) appears on Aug 24 only, with no other day in the week near it. The cheapest listing moved the other way (about 43g 75s over the first 3 days, 28g 17s over the last 3), so the median reflects a listing wall, not the market.

The cheapest listing did not move (about 4g over the first 3 days, 3g 54s over the last 3), so the median reflects a listing wall, not the market.

The cheapest listing did not move (about 145g over the first 3 days, 193g 5s over the last 3), so the median reflects a listing wall, not the market.

How this report is built

Methodology: prices are US-region daily medians of commodity auction listings from Blizzard's official Auction House API, snapshotted hourly. Movers compare the first and last daily median inside the week. Candidates need a starting median of at least 10 gold and at least 50 live listings when the page is built. A move is only featured when its own days support it: rows whose first or last daily median was more than ten times that day's cheapest listing, whose new level appears on a single day, whose cheapest listing (the typical daily minimum over the first and last three days) did not move at least half as far as the median, or that were listed in fewer than half the hourly scans on an endpoint day are held back and listed separately. Verify prices in-game before trading.

Sample: the 1,514 US-region commodities that cleared the liquidity and price floors inside this window; the tables rank the largest movers among them, 10 in each direction. Prices are daily medians, measured through 2026-08-30: the baseline is the first daily median inside the week and the end is the last one; a daily median is the median of that day's hourly, quantity-weighted median asks, so it describes listings, not completed sales.

The same snapshots ship inside TheWoWDB Companion, the free in-game addon, so the prices in this report are the prices on your tooltips.
