PricePoint Exchange

This page is to serve as a table of exchange prices to a variety of project sold in the Dai Silver Troy.  Listed below is a range of prices of various commodities and products converted into their equivalent value of silver over the past five years (as data available allows). The MIN value is the lowest price recorded, the MAX value is the highest price recorded, and the AVG value is the average of all prices available (presumed as the standard price). In the event of a theoretical currency catastrophe, the idea would be for all commodity prices to be set arbitrarily to the MAX price and through the process of capitalistic competition gradually reduce the prices to the standard AVG price as commodity markets stabilize. Again this information should be used as a guide in unstable times to ensure fair pricing in such circumstances. This list is not yet considered complete but is currently being compiled:

PRICING USING OLD BRITISH PENCE-POUND SYSTEM

As a pricing schema for retailers and for small wholesalers, the British pound was used with various currency denominations within its complicated system of proctoring transactions. Though we agree the new system is much simpler to use in the United Kingdom the various denominations of currencies does provide interesting price points that were used by the retailers of that time to set prices. These are offered here as a review to assist with pricing:
