These figures are what pepmg still publishes about price: the floor, the middle, the spread and how many sources we track, computed from listings we captured first-party and refreshed on the same schedule as always. We no longer publish the individual listings or the sellers behind them.
Computed from 2 in-stock listings across 2 sources we captured first-party, with bulk vials, blends and statistical outliers excluded so the figures compare like with like. The spread is the highest tracked price divided by the lowest — how much the same milligram varies depending on where you look. The chart is the daily minimum; days we did not capture are left out rather than filled in.
