Signals are observations, not recommendations

All market signals on MarketSignalIndex — including liquidity scores, OEM premium estimates, spread percentages, trend direction, and risk indicators — are derived from a limited set of observed data points at a point in time. They represent one perspective on available market data, not a comprehensive survey of market conditions.

A signal showing "high liquidity" does not guarantee you can source or move hardware at any particular price or speed. A signal showing "low OEM premium" does not guarantee compatible alternatives will work in your environment. All signals are indicative only.

Supplier introductions are not endorsements

MarketSignalIndex may help connect a user who submits an RFQ with a potential supplier. An introduction, referral, contributor relationship, listing, or supplier appearance on the site does not by itself mean that MarketSignalIndex endorses, certifies, or guarantees that supplier.

MarketSignalIndex may receive compensation from participating suppliers for introductions, referrals, or resulting business. Compensation does not guarantee placement, verification, favorable market signals, or a successful transaction.

You are responsible for your own decisions

MarketSignalIndex does not provide procurement advice, investment advice, or business recommendations. Nothing on this site should be interpreted as a recommendation to buy, sell, hold, or avoid any hardware product or transaction.

You are solely responsible for independently verifying pricing, availability, compatibility, product condition, seller identity and reputation, payment terms, shipping, warranty, and any other transaction details before doing business with a supplier.

MarketSignalIndex does not sell or fulfill hardware and is not a party to transactions between users and suppliers. We may not have visibility into actual deal terms, final prices, delivery, product condition, disputes, or fulfillment outcomes.

Data limitations

• Prices are observed asking prices and may not reflect actual transaction prices
• Data may be delayed, partial, or incomplete — see each page for available freshness information
• Not all sellers, regions, or market conditions are represented
• Signals are computed from available samples — small sample sizes reduce confidence
• Market conditions can change faster than data refresh cycles

No warranty, no liability

All information is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, express or implied. MarketSignalIndex expressly disclaims liability for losses, damages, missed opportunities, failed transactions, or decisions made in reliance on signals, data, listings, or supplier introductions published or facilitated through the site, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, MarketSignalIndex's total liability to you for any claim arising from use of this site shall not exceed the amounts paid by you to MarketSignalIndex in the twelve months preceding the claim, or $100 USD if no fees have been paid.
