How we count

Every sale here was confirmed with the auction site after the auction ended. We check the final winning bid instead of trusting the last price we saw. Canceled and unsold units are left out of prices. Weeks run Monday to Sunday (UTC). Groups with fewer than 50 sales aren't shown, so one unusual unit can't swing a number. Recent weeks can still shift slightly as late results come in.
