The 6 “Internet Archive” points come from the Internet Archive’s copy of the lab’s own pricing page, from before we started checking it. Each is the first copy we read that showed that price. We read about one copy a week, so a change can be up to a week earlier than shown. The source link opens that copy. A “first seen” point is the price before our first recorded change. It held from our first check of the page, and any move in between would show up as its own row. A “current” point is the price as of the latest check that changed it.
