Example: Part Average: New-$2 Used-$1 Store A Part Price: New-$1.90 - v10% Store B Part Price: Used-$1.10 - ^10% If I select "any" condition, I would expect that the used part for only $1.10 would be a better deal, and yet the page tells me thats overpriced. Instead I buy the $1.90 part, thinking its a better deal (10% lower) but it's really not. Suggestion: If "any" condition is selected, compare the part's price to the average of both the new AND used price. By selecting ANY it means you don't care about condition, so the cheapest one is the one reported.
