Understanding RAP

RAP stands for Recent Average Price. It is just the average of an item's recent recorded sales. It sits next to the community Value on item cards, but the two are not the same thing.

What RAP actually is

RAP is a running average of what an item has recently sold for. As new sales come in, each one nudges the average up or down. That is all it is: a snapshot of recent selling prices, not a judgement of what an item is truly worth.

RAP does not always decide value

RAP is not the same as an item's Value, and it is not always used to set it. Value is the community's assessment of what an item is worth to trade, and for a lot of items that is the better guide. Traders often lean on Value more than RAP.

Treat RAP as one data point, not the final word.

RAP can be inaccurate or manipulated

Because RAP is just an average of sales, it is easy to skew:

• Low sale volume. If an item barely sells, a single trade can swing its RAP hard.
• Manipulation. People can wash-trade, selling to themselves or friends, to pump or dump an item's RAP on purpose.
• Outliers. One overpay or one lowball sale drags the average away from reality.
• Sniped or off-market deals. Prices from quick snipes are not what the item normally trades for.

So a high RAP does not always mean an item is really worth that, and a low RAP does not always mean it is cheap.

How RAP is tracked

As real sales are recorded, they feed into Bloxtsar and each one updates the item's RAP. Every update stores the old RAP, the new RAP, and the sale that moved it, so you can see how it changed over time.

Which games have RAP

RAP is shown for games where it is meaningful, currently Baddies, Fisch, and Pet Simulator 99. Games without RAP simply will not show a RAP card.

Where to see it

• On the item page: the Current RAP card, plus a Value and RAP history chart.
• RAP Changes feed: recent RAP moves in your hub (for example, Baddies RAP Changes), grouped by item type.

The quick version

RAP is just the average of recent sales. It is handy as a sanity check, but it can be inaccurate or manipulated, and it does not always reflect an item's real worth. Lean on Value, and use RAP as a supporting signal.
