Methodology

Every series on JunkPal carries monthly mediansold prices — the middle sale of the month, so one record-breaking auction can't move the number. For each of the 6,589 series in this report we compare the median of the recent 6 months against the median of the prior 6. A series qualifies only with a current used value of $15+, at least 3 recent + 3 prior monthly points, and a sale inside the last ~4 months — the same rules as our market movers pages. Rising means +8% or more, falling −8% or more. Values in USD. Full details on the methodology page.

Values are informational estimates from real sales data, updated daily. JunkPal may earn a commission when you buy through eBay links, at no extra cost to you.
