No real market: only 6 units across 4 auctions region-wide. With this little supply the lowest listing is one asking price rather than a market rate, so treat the estimate above as arithmetic, not an opportunity; a buyer at that price is not established.

  • Evidence: 4 current listings holding 6 units of the crafted item in the US region. We see listings, not sales, so how many sell and at what price is unknown.
