We include active sale listings in Mauritius with a numeric price. Wanted ads, “price on call”, deleted listings and blocked accounts are excluded. For every category with at least five observations, the median is the middle price and the range runs from the 25th to the 75th percentile. Values update as listings change.
Start with the median, then compare the exact model, age, condition, accessories and pickup location. A price outside the typical range is not automatically wrong — it is a signal to ask why.
Inspect the item, confirm the advertiser and agree the full price before paying. Avoid unnecessary advance payments and never share passwords or one-time codes.
No. Dodolist currently knows the advertised asking price, not the amount finally paid between buyer and seller.
The median is less distorted by one unusually cheap or expensive listing than a simple average.
The calculations use the active marketplace and update automatically as listings are added, changed or removed.
