Price Guide

Post by jsm610 »

I wrote a poem:
Do you recall the book I once did write,
On prices then, in two-thousand and seven?
It served its use, yet faded from the light,
In two-thousand-eight, its worth was riven.

And Gil, who wrote in PHP so grand,
In twenty-ten, it soared to heights anew.
But data entry, slipping from our hand,
Corrupted all, no updates to pursue.

And then I coded, in my phase of might,
A newer version, bugs I aimed to slay.
It held such promise, though it wasn’t right,
Yet still, I cherish memories of that day.

Yes, I know both Java and the verse’s meter,
In code or rhyme, I strive to be completer.

Link below, where the URL does dwell,
A journey shared, a story left to tell.
I wrote some Java:

I wrote some release notes:
Rickenbacker Market Watch - Release Notes

Version: Beta 1.0

Release Date: 08.28.2024

Key Features in This Release:

Price Analysis:

Track high, low, and average prices for supported Rickenbacker models.

Prices are grouped by instrument condition (e.g., "Excellent," "Good").

Decade-Based Market Tracking:

Historical data is organized by decade, allowing users to view trends over time.

Aggregated transaction counts provide a quick overview of market activity for each decade.

Data Visualization:

Input specific Rickenbacker models to tailor the analysis to your needs.

Easily compare pricing trends across different time periods and conditions.

Known Issues:

Incomplete Model Support:

Not all Rickenbacker models are currently supported. Future updates will expand the range of models included.

Beta Stability:

The tool is in the beta phase and has not undergone full testing. Users may encounter bugs or unexpected behavior.

Data Accuracy:

As the tool is still in development, some pricing data may be incomplete or inaccurate. I'll refine the data sources and algorithms to improve this.

Duplicate decades: occasionally the tool will create two groupings for a single decade: ex: 1970s and 70s. Something to fix...

Sometimes, the data has a decade tagged that's not valid - ie: the 335 from the 1880's. :). Will fix...

Mobile support:

The tool works best on a desktop, using it on a phone is basically unusable...

To do::

Expanded Model Database - Future releases will support a broader range of Rickenbacker models.

Enhanced User Interface - Improvements to the user interface are planned to make navigation and data visualization even more intuitive. (and less ugly)
Hope this is of use to you all...!
