Data status

Retailer refresh status.

Live rankings depend on recently observed retailer data. This page shows refresh activity and the actual live-offer coverage available from each tracked retailer.

Freshness rule

Product rankings only use in-stock offers with valid normalized prices refreshed within the last 14 days. This operational view also shows how many eligible offers were checked within the stricter last-24-hour window.

Across all retailers: 857 of 1,000 offers (86%) are currently live-eligible; 834 (83%) were refreshed within 24 hours.

Most recent recorded refresh: Sep 15, 2026, 2:42 PM UTC.

How this affects price pages

A retailer being shown here as Aging does not automatically make every offer ineligible. Every individual offer carries its own update timestamp, stock status and normalized price, and live ranking applies eligibility at the offer level. Once an offer is older than 14 days it is excluded from best-price ranking, search pricing, deal pages and structured product offers until a fresh observation returns.

The live-eligible count can also be lower than the retailer's total tracked offers because out-of-stock offers remain in the catalog for matching and historical context but do not participate in current best-price ranking.

Price history is kept separately from current ranking. Historical in-stock observations remain useful for comparing prior normalized price-per-cigar values even when today's retailer availability changes.

Why publish this?

Cigar prices and inventory can change between crawls. Showing both refresh health and offer-level coverage makes it easier to distinguish a real current comparison from catalog data that is waiting for another retailer check.
