How this is made

Which items get a page
Only items with comp evidence: a realized sale on record, a value FLOAT's pricer serves from sales, or a current market asking price. An item with none of those has no page and does not appear in search.
The figure
One figure, printed with its kind and its date. A realized sale, an estimate and an asking price are different claims, and each is labeled as what it is.
Sales
Realized sales only, each with a date and a price. Open listings and asking prices are never counted as sales.
