EXPERT MARKET ANALYSIS **Expert Report: Vintage Gaming Market Analysis** **Price Trends** Our analysis reveals a consistent upward trend in sale prices over time, with notable increases in November and December. The earliest sales (September and October) started at relatively low price points ($20-$30), gradually rising to reach up to $100 or more by the end of the year. This suggests that demand for vintage gaming content is increasing, driving prices upwards. **Product Assumptions** Based on product descriptions and price changes, we made the following assumptions: * Original consoles became more valuable or scarce over time, leading to higher sale prices. **Outlier Detection** Significant outliers were identified: * High-priced console sales ($100-$150) for bundles of multiple games, such as the 17 Games Bundle on November 7. These outliers suggest that rare or highly sought-after vintage gaming content is driving up demand and prices. Our analysis highlights the importance of monitoring market trends to understand price fluctuations and make informed decisions in the vintage gaming market. **Conclusion** This expert report provides valuable insights into the price trends, product assumptions, and significant outliers in the vintage gaming market. By analyzing sales data from September to December, we can infer a growing interest in rare and highly sought-after content, driving up prices over time. This analysis is essential for businesses looking to capitalize on this trend or individuals seeking to buy or sell vintage gaming items.
