Price changes in collection seem incorrect

Anonymous 3 days ago updated by sales 2 days ago 1

From what I've seen, the green/red up/down arrows in the collection screen often don't make sense. For example, I recently saw Pokemon Box drop from $2400 to $2327.50, which somehow resulted in a green up arrow showing an increase of $135.93. I can't discern any logic there, and things like this have been happening a lot, so I'm assuming it's just broken.

Sorry for any problem.  Can you please give me the url to that specific item in your collection?  You should be able to click to see details then copy/paste the url.  I will look into this.

The change value should represent the last change in price from the previous price to the current price, whenever those were last calculated.

The collection values are what is called “eventually consistent”. The value shown on the collection summary page and the price detail page should match, and those are the most recent. The values on the collection item details can sometimes lag because we update those after the value on the product changes. And sometimes the server will take a while to update if there is a big queue of updates all at once.  It is possible this is causing the issue.

Sorry for any confusion.
