Review process

Editorial review

The Part Price Guide editorial process verifies pricing data, checks fitment accuracy, and ensures every published guide meets minimum sample-size and freshness thresholds before going live.

Thresholds

Minimum sample thresholds

We publish a price range only when the underlying listing sample is large enough to be useful. Thin or incomplete samples are labeled as price data updating instead of being presented as a market estimate.

Freshness

Freshness checks

Reviewers monitor the collection date on every guide and prioritize refreshes where listings have aged, changed, or no longer reflect an active market.

Fitment

Grade verification

Seller-reported condition grades and vehicle fitment fields are normalized before publication. Records that cannot be matched confidently are excluded rather than guessed at.

Statistics

Outlier detection

Automated checks flag implausible prices, duplicate records, and values that sit far outside comparable listings. Editorial review investigates those flags before a guide is published or refreshed.
