Notes

  • Prices are in GBP on the .co.uk domain.
  • bgg_id is extracted from the cross-link to BoardGameGeek when present; allows joining with BGG ratings, rankings, and community data.
  • The buy_link_path is a redirect path on BoardGamePrices.co.uk — prepend https://boardgameprices.co.uk to build the full URL.
  • Price data is refreshed frequently by the aggregator (typically within hours); timestamps are available in retailer_offers[*].last_seen_at.
