API Methods - Item Price Information

Returns the "best guess" price of multiple items, if you just want the price for an item for a killboard, etc then this is the fastest way to get it.

How it's calculated: Take the average price of a simulated buy of 5% of the market. Updated daily at downtime.

If using region_ids: Keep in mind that regions with out-of-date or incomplete data (check the Reports page) may have wonky prices!
