Here’s our analysis of items and categories for the whole month of May.

I’m going to start referring to these reports as “estimates”, to make it more clear that this analysis is simply based on ranking positions on the associated eCommerce stores. As always, these lists are only as accurate as the rankings of items on those top sellers’ lists are “honest”. One can certainly imagine items being placed higher on a top sellers’ page in an effort to encourage sales. With that in mind, I continue to believe these rankings are at least somewhat reflective of actual sales. I’m working to confirm these rankings are actually accurate with those who would know.

Listings here for ShopAEW and PWTees correct for prior reports that showed incorrect results because of a coding error.
