⚠️ Hobby data, not investment advice. LEGO resale is illiquid and condition-sensitive — values can fall and you could lose money. Figures are estimates from your own data (basis: BrickLink sold); the solid line is real points (RRP & now), the dashed line a rough illustration only — not a forecast you should trade on. History fills in as you re-export.
