Median and middle 50% of account-level average order values. Each account value is purchase ROAS multiplied by cost per purchase in USD. Successful classifications, including manual corrections, with positive finite spend, purchases, ROAS and cost per purchase. Accounts are counted once with equal weight. Quartiles use linear interpolation. Root cohorts include direct root classifications and their child categories; exact-child cohorts exclude parent and sibling categories. The source selects the highest-spend coverage row per account among snapshots dated within the preceding 30 days; the underlying reporting period is not supplied. This is a dated aggregate advertising-data snapshot, not business-wide AOV or a census.

## Research questions

### What makes a game-used claim credible?

Connect the object to the stated event with available records and an ownership trail. Smithsonian treats provenance as evidence for attribution and authenticity, so a signature or date alone does not prove game use.

### Why record how an item entered a collection?

An acquisition record preserves context alongside the object. The Baseball Hall of Fame describes curators accessioning donated equipment and using artifacts to tell the game's history; retail listings should preserve their own documented chain.

### Do all sports items need the same display conditions?

No. Leather, fabric and wood respond differently to surroundings. The Baseball Hall of Fame describes climate-controlled storage for those materials, so identify an item's material before choosing a display setup.

### How should a vintage team photograph be handled?
