I don't think any of them have... auctioneeraddon.com had a post on 11/16 about it stating they would be updating soon but there wasn't yet enough data. I just follow the rule of thumb where plate is usually worth more than leather or mail but depends on the piece of armor. 2h weapons are worth more than 1h weapons etc.

This has been the system I have been using while waiting for auctioneer to get updated. Seems to work quite well.

I look at the item type first:

Helm/Chest/2h Weap are worth the most.
Legs, 1h weapons, ranged weapons, shields are next down.
Everything else seems to be worth less.

So in a lot of cases, a cloth chest will be worth more than a plate waist.

It's actually a bit more complicated than that... when you get a quest reward, you have three options:

1) Wear it. If it's an upgrade, that should be the option you take.

2) Vendor it. This is where you can make a decision on which item you choose as a reward for the gold it brings in.

3) Disenchant it. If you are an enchanter, having the price of the item vs the price of the mats created through disenchanting it will allow you to make a decision regarding whether you want to vendor or disenchant the reward - and in this case the relative price of leather vs plate becomes worthless.
