Methodology
Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2).
8 of the 33 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 25 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 1 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 69 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded.
The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): median, minimum and maximum list price per equipment class per capacity or spec across every supplier that publishes one (a 250 mL borosilicate graduated cylinder, a 6-place analytical balance, a 1.5 mL benchtop microcentrifuge, a 4-foot bypass fume hood), the price per mL or per rotor position that makes two catalogues comparable, and the SHARE OF THE CATALOGUE THAT WILL NOT SHOW A PRICE without an account - a number nobody publishes because every supplier knows only its own; plus repriced-since, which is how a tariff or a glass shortage shows up
69 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
