Ranked by the lowest comparable price among offers that pass our freshness, variant and anomaly checks. Where a store does not publish a shipping cost we say so rather than assuming it is free. All amounts are the store’s own published prices at the time shown. Offers priced in another currency are listed for reference but excluded from the comparison — we do not convert currencies and present the result as a like-for-like price.

Every price above was read from a retailer’s own published data and stored with its timestamp. The history is ours, not a retailer’s claim.
How we calculate this
Where prices come from. We read the product data each retailer publishes on its own site, unhurriedly and within the rules that retailer sets. We never work around an access control and we never buy collected data of uncertain provenance.
What “verified” means. An offer can win best price only if it is inside our freshness window, matched to the exact variant, in stock, and free of an unresolved price anomaly. “Best verified price” means lowest among the fresh offers we track — not the lowest price on the internet.
How history works. Every price we observe is stored with its source and timestamp. Daily market low, median and high come from those observations, so the price history on this page is ours, not a retailer’s claim.
What we exclude. Stale offers, mismatched variants, bundles compared against single items, and prices that move implausibly without corroboration from another store.
Images. Product photographs come from the retailer they sit beside, loaded from their own image host. We do not re-host them and claim no rights in them.
