@@ -35,3 +35,29 @@ and our own designerwallcoverings.com listings; US flips the label to "per yard"
 
 **Net:** the ~$35.6k "exposure" is mostly correctly-priced per-metre stock with a labeling gap, 3 correct
 panels, and 1 real dupe — a far smaller, safer fix than a mass revert. Live data: `zoffany_widewidth_mislabel_suspects.json`.
+
+## $/metre spot-check (the non-gated prep, done)
+Dividing each flat live price by its repeat-length gives a **$237–$875/m spread (3.7×)** — the tell that these
+are FLAT prices that only *average* into Zoffany's $400–590/m band, not consistent per-metre prices. Against
+that band (reliable subset = 50 SKUs with a real length, panels excluded):
+- **23 IN band** → price ~fine → **labeling fix only**.
+- **~26 BELOW band (<$400/m)** — Phaedra $237, Henrietta's Trail $252, Sansui $260, Pina de Indes $324,
+  Emperors Musician $326, Chambalon/Elswick/Floating Mountains … → **per-metre REPRICE candidates**.
+- **2 ABOVE band (>$590/m)** — Pompadour Print $875/m → **reprice candidate**.
+- **22 length=0m SKUs** (Moire ×11, Akaishi ×3, Marquetry Trellis, Mughal Menagerie, Artisan Palampore,
+  Rushes, Tree of Life) → **$/m UNKNOWN** — catalog has no usable roll_length and a per-metre good's
+  sell-increment ≠ its repeat, so this needs a **Zoffany scrape**, not a local backfill.
+
+**HONEST CAVEAT — not verification-grade yet.** The "out-of-band" reading assumes sell-increment = repeat
+(confirmed for Verdure, unproven universally). Different repeat sizes legitimately yield different $/m, so a
+low $/m can be a large-piece price, not an underprice. **Confirming which of the ~28 are genuinely mis-priced
+requires Zoffany's actual per-metre US wholesale/retail price list** — that is the scoped follow-on, not a
+same-session fix.
+
+## Where this lands (remaining work is a scoped, GATED follow-on)
+1. **Scrape Zoffany's per-metre US price list** for the ~40 wide-width patterns → the missing truth for both the
+   22 no-dimension SKUs and the ~28 out-of-band candidates. (Research effort; do on Steve's go.)
+2. **Per-metre reprice** the confirmed out-of-band SKUs from that list (gated live write).
+3. **Unit-labeling pass** on the in-band 23 + all per-metre SKUs (gated publish, low-risk copy/variant).
+4. **Resolve the Tigers Eye dupe** — the ONE fix cleanly actionable now (gated card drafted separately).
+5. 3 fixed panels (Wray×2, Tyndall) — correct, leave.
