How .925 works

A price ticker for the secondary market. No selling, no authentication — just the numbers.

  1. 1
    We track 115 models.
    Rings, chains, bracelets, eyewear and apparel — silver and gold tracked as separate series.
  2. 2
    Twice-weekly snapshots.
    Public asking prices from resale marketplaces. Junk and suspicious lowball listings are filtered out, gold variants routed to their own series, and the top 1% trimmed.
  3. 3
    One price per seller.
    Each seller counts once — collapsed to their median listing — so a single consignment shop that lists hundreds of the same model can't drag the market median around. The sample size we show ("23 sellers") is the number of independent sellers behind the number.
  4. 4
    Median, not average.
    Asking prices skew high — especially for jewelry, where overseas consignment shops list well above what pieces actually sell for; compare against the sold-price charts. The CH-40 index is the equal-weighted ratio of every model's median to its baseline week, ×1,000.
What this is not

Asking prices are not sold prices — treat the index as a market thermometer, not an appraisal. We don't authenticate items, sell anything, or hold inventory.
