How these numbers were made
- street price
- Read from a live US retail listing on 16 September 2026. It is what shoppers pay today, not a list price.
- landed cost
- Source price plus shipping to the US. Marked * where the listing did not state a shipping price; there we apply our $4.00 standard-shipping benchmark and say so.
- ad cost
- $18.00 for every product in this Drop. It is our benchmark to acquire one buyer for a sub-$40 impulse product, not a measured per-product number.
- margin
- Street price minus landed cost minus ad cost. Before returns, fees and your own time.
- pulled
- ceramic pet water fountain, 2.4L. We could not verify the source price on 16 September 2026. There is no verdict until we can.
- the Scoreboard
- Drop 1 is the first, so the record starts here. Every verdict stays public with what happened next, including the ones we get wrong.
