What these figures do not say
- The recorded price is an entry price: the cheapest configuration available that day, usually the smallest storage and the most marked cosmetic grade. It is not the price of one specific unit.
- Two readings a day: a move that happens and reverses between two readings is invisible.
- A rise is not always a rise. The displayed price is the cheapest offer of the moment; when the seller holding it runs out of stock, the price climbs without anyone raising it.
- Countries are not comparable with one another: no currency conversion is ever performed.
- The history is recent. It places a price against the past few weeks; it cannot establish a yearly depreciation curve.
Verifiability
Everything is public, including how it is produced
The dataset lives in a public repository, updated automatically. Every reading is committed on the day it was taken: the version history lets you check any figure, and makes it impossible to quietly revise the past. The scripts that produce the files are there too, so the result can be reproduced.

We answer press enquiries and are happy to provide a custom extract — one model, one period — when the published format is not enough.
