    "As of `price_history` day 20718, which is 2026-09-22, for every raw price, and the latest `graded_snapshots` row per card and grade for every sold median, read across both the catalogue card id and the TCGplayer product id exactly as src/server/card-facts.ts does, with the more recent day winning per grade. THE GRADED READ IS PINNED TO THE SAME DAY AS THE PRICES, `graded_snapshots` rows with day <= 20718, because that tape is appended every day and an unpinned latest-row read is not reproducible: reading it a day later moves the panel to 4,102 cards, Fossil's median to 140.06x and the whole-panel median to 15.31x, none of which a reader could get back. Both instruments here are therefore as of 2026-09-22 and nothing later. The graded cron writes a median only when three or more verified eBay sales support it (MIN_SAMPLE = 3 in src/app/api/cron/graded-snapshot/route.ts), so the three-sale floor is the tape's own write rule, not a filter applied here; 4,100 of the universe's 18,698 products carry both a raw ask and a PSA 10 median, and the whole English priced catalogue carries 4,675. Multiple is the PSA 10 sold median divided by the raw ask. Raw prices are TCGplayer market prices for the flagship printing and are ASKS; graded medians are SOLD prices. A set enters the ranking with twelve or more qualifying cards: 90 of the universe's 129 sets. The ranking is printed as two contiguous slices, ranks 1 to 12 and ranks 79 to 90, and the chart shows those same 24 rows; the full ordered 90 is in the scratch dump. Ties are broken by the larger qualifying-card count ranking first; no tie occurs inside either printed slice. Medians take the upper-middle value on even samples. The deep-comp re-run raises the write floor to 25 verified sales, which leaves 1,502 cards and 42 sets with twelve or more, and its whole-panel median multiple is 8.80x against 15.30x on the full panel. Rank correlations are Spearman with tied ranks averaged. The price-band table is over all 4,100 qualifying cards, not over sets. Nine of the twelve sets in the top slice had every raw ask re-quoted onto a different printing on 2026-09-07, sixteen days before the cross section; the pre-step comparison in the sceptic section reruns the whole ranking on day 20702 asks against the same sold medians, so only the denominator changes. FireRed & LeafGreen appears unlinked because that set has no set page. Nothing here nets a grading fee, a shipping cost or a gem rate; it is a price ratio, not a return. Scripts: apps/web/scripts/rs-figures.mts; figures in apps/web/.scratch-reddit-sets/figures.json. Nothing here is investment advice."
