Where do these prices come from?

Every figure is calculated from the asking prices of equipment currently listed on Gym Equipment Marketplace. The index recalculates automatically whenever listings are added, sold or repriced, so it always reflects live inventory rather than a one-off survey.

Why do you show the median instead of the average?

A single very expensive or very cheap listing can pull an average a long way from what most buyers actually pay. The median is the middle price when listings are sorted, so it is a better guide to a typical price.

Why are some equipment types or brands missing?

We only publish a figure when at least 3 listings are available, and we leave out items priced per pound or per piece (such as loose plates and dumbbells) because their unit prices are not comparable with whole machines.

Are these the prices I will actually pay?

They are asking prices before freight. Final cost depends on condition, age, location and shipping — commercial machines are heavy, and freight can add a few hundred dollars. Use the figures as a benchmark when comparing listings or negotiating.
