HOW THE TERMINAL WORKS.

Four stations on one signal bus. Signals in, treasure out.

AOM-CRT / TERMINAL v1SIGNAL BUS
STN-01● LIVE
SOURCES

eBay active listings · Discogs · PSA cert lookup. Every day the terminal pulls live supply into one pipeline.

▸ 8,828 filtered listings tracked
  • eBay active asks are supply signals — what sellers want, not what buyers paid.
  • Discogs covers vinyl and music; PSA cert lookup verifies graded slabs.
  • PriceCharting sold data feeds the Pokémon estimator as reference comps only — never mixed into ask signals.

QUALITY GATES

Quoted keywords · negative keywords · 20% price sanity floor · 1.5× IQR trim · high-outlier cap · THIN DATA under 5 listings.

▸ 5,383 of 6,170 listings passed today
  • A $1,000 rock can't move a category — every listing must match the quoted keywords and survive the sanity floor.
  • Outliers are trimmed twice: 1.5× IQR, then a 10× median cap catches vanity asks.
  • Fewer than 5 kept listings marks an item THIN DATA — no signal gets published from it.

HEAT ENGINE

The Heat Engine scores each category from 7-day ask movement, listing depth, and snapshot consistency — one 0–100 score, refreshed daily.

▸ 18 categories live · 5 building
  • Heating at +2% weekly or more, cooling at −2% or less, steady in between.
  • A stalled ingest shows as BUILDING — never dressed up as a market move.
  • Same score on the homepage, the Heat Index, and the dashboard. One source.

WHY WE EXIST.

We're the generation that grew up between two worlds — the analog childhood and the digital adulthood.

Our toys, tapes, and trading cards weren't just stuff. They were the cultural operating system of a generation.

Age of Millennials archives, indexes, and trades the artifacts that built us. We turn nostalgia into signal.
