Price Per Unit Index

Monthly median price per unit — $/GB, $/inch, $/page — for every category BuyPerUnit tracks, computed from weekly snapshots of every in-stock listing on Amazon, Best Buy and Newegg. Dense coverage since April 2026; recomputed every Sunday; each month is frozen on the 2nd of the next.

Last computed .

How to read the index

  • Level is the median of each listing's monthly median of its daily-minimum price per unit. One listing, one vote; a single glitch price cannot move it.
  • Floor is the 10th percentile of the same per-listing medians — what the cheapest tenth of the market cleared, without the noise of a single lowest listing.
  • Change is matched-listing: the median change across listings present in both months, so products entering or leaving the catalog cannot fake a move.
  • Only in-stock, new-condition listings count; tiers need at least five listings. Months close on the 2nd of the following month and are then frozen. Months before April 2026 are event-only (“sparse”) and appear in the download but not on these pages.
