Dan and I are working on a rather large project that may be able to assist. We take and analyse data from ebay, by "complete" sets (no box, no instructions are ok, as long as they're not missing any pieces) that are in the US (or canada, or APO/FPO) (...)

(...) Wow, that sounds really cool! If I can make a suggestion... if the results could also spit out a graph of value vs time (ie, show when it sold for how much) for all data points, that would be incredibly useful. I bet you'd see definite cycles, (...) (25 years ago, 19-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.appraisal)

(...) Not on LUGNET, it's something we've been working on for a few months now, on and off...

(...) Are you discounting the instructions and boxes (and other materials) entirely? Or are you flagging the presence/absence of these extras?

(...) discounting them entirely for right now... it's a lot of data to deal with as it is, it'd be hard to deal with only MIB or MISB or such...
