La Cote (collection value)

/cote is the value dashboard — what your collection is worth today versus what you paid for it, with the market doing most of the valuation work for you.

Effective value

Each piece's value is resolved, in order:

  1. a manual value you set (value_amount — the cote), else
  2. the latest market price auto-fetched by the price sweep (badge marché), else
  3. the figure's catalogue MSRP as a fallback, else
  4. nothing (the piece isn't counted).

The pièces évaluées counter breaks those tiers down (manual / market / MSRP), so you always know how much of the total rests on real numbers.

What it shows

  • Valeur estimée — the collection's effective value in large type, in your display currency (the per-currency originals stay in the footnote).
  • Payé — the figure price you paid (price_amount, deposit included), converted with each purchase's frozen exchange rate — see the drift-free plus-value. Shipping is deliberately excluded here: it's a sunk cost a resale never recovers, so folding it in would show every shipped piece at a perpetual loss. (Your full outlay incl. shipping lives in the stats spend ledger.)
  • Plus-value — value − price, with a % badge: jade for a gain, laque-red for a loss.
  • A ranked table of every valued piece (highest first); each row shows price vs estimated vs the per-piece delta, plus a market sparkline.

Market prices, auto-tracked

When the admin schedules the price sweep, FigureCollector keeps your cote current on its own:

  • The sweep visits each owned figure's buy links — orzgk natively, any other boutique through the proxy — and records the best match (preferring your figure's exact version).
  • The latest price feeds the value chain above; every change is historized (figure_price_history), never overwritten.

That history powers three reads on the page:

Surface What it tells you
Per-row sparkline The figure's price trend at a glance, with a ▲/▼ % delta.
Registre (click a sparkline) The full step-curve + dated ledger of every recorded price.
Évolution chart The whole collection's value reconstructed over time (manual values and MSRPs contribute as constants, market prices as their step series), with 3m / 6m / 1y / all ranges.

A market price at or below a wishlist target also fires a price alert — same sweep, same data.

Editing a value

Click a row to set or clear its manual value inline (a currency-prefixed input; a reset to MSRP button clears the override). Saving (PUT /me/owned/{id}/value) refreshes the table and the dashboard totals immediately. A manual value always wins over the market price — the sweep never touches your numbers.

One currency, originals preserved

Everything on the page reads in your display currency with the discreet marker; hover any converted figure for its original. The mechanics — supported currencies, ECB rates, the rate frozen at purchase, the EUR-normalised plus-value — live on the Money & currencies page.

The same effective-value logic powers the per-cabinet totals on Vitrines and the opt-in value on your public collector profile.
