Does a median price tell me what to pay?
It tells you what buyers did pay for similar listings on eBay, new and used mixed. It is a reference point, not a quote or a quality grade.
Prices are the median of the first page of eBay sold results (about 60 listings, new and used mixed). A screen, not a forecast or a quote. Nuva Supply does not stock these items yet.
