The public evidence ledger

We caught our own mistakes.
Here is the ledger.

A buying site should make its uncertainty as visible as its recommendations. This page records what we corrected, what we withheld, and which claims still need a source.

What went wrong

31 of 37

Audited live-priced products differed from Amazon by at least 2%. These were pre-correction findings, not a current price check.

3 wrong products

Three catalog buying links pointed to different products. One returned wooden bookends. We withheld those links rather than substituting another device.

The scheduled price refresh was retired. The audit found that the manual successor had not been run for this site. This ledger does not claim that automation has been restored.

Source coverage · stage 1

Unknown is a result.

A number in our catalog is not evidence. Without an eligible dated receipt, the structured claim displays “Unverified brand claim.” Both fields are excluded from comparison scoring and winner highlighting in this stage.

Receipt coverage across all catalog products
ClaimSource-backedUnverified
FDA clearance status2 / 3937
Irradiance evidence0 / 3939

Scope matters: these counts cover two structured fields, including unsupported “No” values. They do not certify the remaining specifications, review prose, clinical outcomes, or independent testing. Manufacturer documentation is labeled as a manufacturer claim; it is not a meter test.

Dated correction history

A recommendation can lose its buying link.

These entries come from our commerce receipts. Listing identifiers and historical prices are withheld in this public view. The findings describe what was checked on the recorded date, not a fresh availability check.

  1. Buying link restored

    Thyro Light Red & Near Infrared Neck Therapy Device

    • Amazon Creators API GetItems (tag bnugget-rlt-20, 2026-10-15) for [listing ID withheld] returned 'Dr. Westin Childs Red Light Therapy Neck Wrap, 4 Wavelengths', price withheld in stock; the title, price and availability are unchanged from the 2026-10-12 check.
    • The site owner confirmed on 2026-10-15 that the Dr. Westin Childs listing is the Thyro Light. This owner attestation is the identity evidence; no third-party source ties the two names.
    • The buying link is restored on that basis. The specifications and the thyroid evidence on this page remain unverified or preliminary, and no replacement ASIN was substituted.
