How to tell if the discount is real
We compare with the previous check
Each check reads the trusted-store price of each model; the benchmark is only the previous check, with no price history kept.
We compare with the median, not the "was" price
The benchmark is the model’s own price at the previous check. The "was" price the store crosses out is not used.
A drop is today’s price against the previous check
With a price 5% or more below the previous check, the model goes into the list of drops.
