will it be accurate?, probably not, but definitely doable without addon
TTC also not accurate, IN FACT, theres lot of false item price, item tend to artificially lowered/raised by player/bot, so i also not reccomended if you only rely on TTC, i use TTC as rought guideline, but also use MM as aggregation price from guild
I know this is another veiled "I want an auction house" thread.
For 99% of the items in the game, you only need to shop one major trade hub. Once you have an idea of prices, then you can figure out what to list yours for. You don't need to find the exact items, just stuff similar to what you want to sell. As for rare items, if you think you have to search the entire game world to find it, then list it at the top end of the prices in the category. If it does not sell in a couple of weeks, pull it and drop the price. Don't worry about the list fee, that is 1%.

Thats not the only issue here. When i get a rare purple motif or diagram that normally goes for 100k or 1 million on ttc, how would i know that without using an addon or the website?
Do you expect me to run around the entire world spending countless hours just to maybe find a couple traders with the same item just to find out the item isnt worth more than 100 gold?
I dont like using tamriel trade centre just to know how much my items are worth. Can someone explain to me how i am supposed to trade in this game without having to use 3rd party software like addons or TTC's website?
How do the console players do it?
Is it about time for a central guild trader listing to be added in the game?
Should ZOS put a disclaimer on the game that unlicensed 3rd party software is required to play the game?
I know this is another veiled "I want an auction house" thread. However i will try to answer your question.

Besides, relying on addons will get you nit get you the price you need to list for, you still need to shop.
TTC is not all that good at showing you the prices in the market.

On the other side if the equation, when I first went to find gear for my bomber, I found a GOLD, DIVINES jerkin of VD for 50 gold. Not 500. Not 50k. Just.... 50.
I snapped it up, and I bet someone cried real tears when they got that mail and realized what they had done.
check the other traders in the town that your guild has their trader in. maybe check a couple more cities if you want more info. It doesn't take more than a couple minutes to check all 5-7 traders at each location. the game saves you search history.I dont like using tamriel trade centre just to know how much my items are worth.

nopeHow do the console players do it?

Check out the guild traders (at least on the major cities), calculate the average and get your item(s) listed.(...) Can someone explain to me how i am supposed to trade in this game without having to use 3rd party software like addons or TTC's website?
How do the console players do it? (...)
No. It will never be the time for that.(...) Is it about time for a central guild trader listing to be added in the game? (...)
No, because you don't need 3rd parties software to play the game, you never did and you never will.(...) Should ZOS put a disclaimer on the game that unlicensed 3rd party software is required to play the game?

If you're selling -
1. Search guild store #1 in Eldenroot, Search Guild store #2 in Eldenroot, repeat for all 7 stores (all search settings are saved so its just going up to the store and hitting "store, then search". Find lowest price, if you want to sell fast, or put it on average if you want to sell slow.
If you're buying, do the searches like above, but then repeat for Mournhold and Stormhaven. If those don't work, search Alinor, Vivec, and Rawkhla. If those don't work, beg in the zone chat or guild chat.
