How is the ranking built?

Listing time: from a confirmed restock to the next confirmed sell-out of the same configuration at the same store, iPhone Duo only, last 14 days.

  • **Ranked stores:** 5 or more timed restocks; fewer would let one lucky restock decide.
  • **Bounds:** times are upper bounds to the next check (5 to 15 seconds apart).
