Methodology & sources

All numbers come from the same multi-market price feed that powers our tools (Steam, Buff163, Skinport, DMarket, Market.CSGO, Waxpeer, Tradeit and others), refreshed several times a day. Catalog value is the listing-weighted sum over every tracked item; weekly change compares against the closest snapshot seven days back. "Best price" always means the lowest live quote across markets — one inflated listing on a single market never moves these numbers. Cheapest-market share excludes Tradeit (store-credit prices). Units sold and turnover come from aggregated market sales data for the last 7 days. Prices are estimates for research, not financial advice.
