The Kovels' top 20 list is based on the results of hundreds of thousands of searches that took place on its website during the month of May 2007.
People use price guides for a number of reasons, the most common being that they are just trying to determine the value of a specific item that they own. If an Item is not listed on the top 20 list, it does not necessarily mean that it is unpopular or that there is not a demand for it. It only means that in May there was less interest.
