Frequently asked questions

What is the median price of a new pair of sunglasses today?

In the 07/11/2026 catalog, the median price is $45, across 37 new sunglasses from trusted sellers. Half cost less than that and half cost more.

How much does each score point cost?

Today’s collection doesn’t have enough sunglasses with a score to calculate this.

Why the median and not the average?

Because a few very expensive sunglasses pull the average up and hide the price most people pay. The median shows the pair of sunglasses in the middle.

How often does the overview change?

Every day, with each new collection. Each collection saves a snapshot of the price and score of each pair of sunglasses, and the "What changed" section compares today’s with the previous one and, when available, with the one from about a week earlier.

Where the numbers come from

Lowest price seen for the product in the stores we read, on the day it was read, before sales tax. Median of each range calculated over the sunglasses in the range; the score only considers the sunglasses that have a score.

The overview describes the Radar catalog, not the whole sunglasses market, and the price is the one collected on the date shown.
