Does the method use a hidden ranking score?
No. The pages expose the recorded quality review, testing access, current price, shipping, payment, product form, and freshness fields. No invented weights are published.
Code-backed ownership and field rules
CJC-1295 sourcing methodology
Catalog checked throughAug 29, 202677 current records
Route ownership
Sourcing and vendor-verification intent stays here; cheapest-price intent links to its canonical owner.
Eligibility
Current public record, eligible vendor or compound entity, valid outbound URL, and supported route assignment
Separate fields
Package price, normalized value, product form, quality review, testing access, shipping, payment, and freshness
Unknown handling
Missing quantity, ambiguous entity, unsupported claim, or inaccessible record remains unknown or excluded
Freshness
Build date and freshest observed catalog date are published; readers confirm the exact current listing
Price math
A positive package price and parsed positive quantity are required before normalization. The displayed comparison amount is mathematical context, not necessarily a purchasable package.
Quality and testing
The PeptidePrices quality review and testing-access record remain visible fields. Identity, assay, purity, sterility, endotoxin, contaminants, and stability are not collapsed into one claim.
Attribution and events
Eligible links retain vendor-specific referral attribution. Listing clicks record vendor, price, position, page path, page type, and product form when present; coupon copies additionally record the copied code.
Method questions
Can an affiliate relationship improve order?
No. Attribution and coupon fields affect link construction or current effective price only. They do not increase quality order.
How are unknown values handled?
Unknown, inaccessible, ambiguous, or missing records remain unknown or are excluded from a numeric comparison. They are not converted into zeroes or negative claims.
