RESEARCH AGE
FRESH = 0โ30d ยท automatic reuse.
AGED = 31โ60d ยท still shown; eyeball eBay or manually refresh if desired.
STALE = 61โ89d ยท old market data.
EXPIRED = 90+d ยท old knowledge retained, not current economics.
UNRESEARCHED = no Trawl research exists.
AUTOMATIC TRAWL
ONLY when a NEW physical vehicle reaches a real yard row AND its research is not FRESH. NEW + FRESH = reuse / 0 calls. Existing research aging by itself never triggers a call. A refresh researches the WHOLE vehicle family and rebases every active matching donor.
MARKET QUALITY
IGNITION + standalone KEY = FILTERED. IGNITION + KEYLESS or KEY LESS = KEPT.
FAVORITES
โ/โ
is a global persistent bookmark for this exact donor + part family. Toggle from Today's Hunt or Favorites. Favorites never affect scoring, Trawl, Recent Actions, or UNDO.
ACTIONS
GRAB = bought/took this exact donor + part.
PASS = skip this exact donor + part.
IGNORE = stop recommending this part family for this YMM.
UNDO = under Recent Actions.
PROFIT MATH
Estimated net = median sold โ ACE cost โ ~13.6% eBay fee โ $0.40 order fee โ ~$10 shipping/packing.
VEHICLE LEDGER
NOT IN = incoming/staging, not Active.
Real row = ON LOT / ACTIVE.
Listing disappears after a successful ACE scrape = OFF LOT. Research remains forever.
NEW badge = first 5 days ON LOT.
TIMESTAMPS
LAST ACE SYNC = last successful junkyard scrape.
Market Research in each part DETAILS = last successful Trawl research for that family; cache reuse does not reset it.
LAST UI SYNC = last successful browser heartbeat to LM.
