AuctioneerDB wiki lists these fields as part of the "scans" section datastring. Could someone please clarify what these fields represent? I've included my own assumptions of what some of these fields mean.

* itemId - Integer: Blizzard defined itemID for the particular scanned item
* itemSuffix - ???
* itemEnchant - Enchants on item. Please provide the type and format of this data.
* itemFactor - ???
* itemSeed - ???
* stackSize - Integer: Number of items in stack.
* sellerName - String: Name of the seller
* minBid - Integer: the minimum bid price. Format g*sscc (g*: Gold component to price, number of digits is unlimited. ss: Silver component to price, will always contain 2 digits. cc: Coper component to price, will always contain 2 digits)
* buyoutPrice - Integer: buyout price of the auction, same format as minBid.
* curBid - Integer: current bid of the auction, same format as minBid. Will be zero if no one has currently bid on it.
* timeLeft - Amount of time left in auction. Please provide format and time of this data.

The first five are from the ItemString for the auction.

Auctioneer calls the unique id a "seed" but it's really a key for the server to identify individual items. Amongst other things it's used to look up who created crafted items ( in tooltips). It can be used by addons to track items too (e.g. to match up auctions in successive auction house queries) but in principle it could change at any time I think.

The "factor" is calculated by Auctioneer from the suffix and unique id so it's apparently redundant:

	function lib:GetFactor(suffix, seed)
		if (suffix < 0 and seed) then
			return bit.band(seed, 65535)
		end
		return 0
	end

Time left is as per GetAuctionItemTimeLeft

Prices are in copper.
