On individual module pages, there are listings of any for sale either on MG or on Reverb.
I'm wondering how often the Reverb ones get refreshed, as there seem to be a lot with what are basically dead links (module has long since been sold, or the reverb listing removed).

Daily, but maybe the API is broken, will look into it...

I have noticed this issue with out of date Reverb listings showing up well after the listing ended too.

I can cite an example: Right now you can look up the Pittsburgh Modular Lifeforms Touch Controller and it shows 1 listing on Reverb:
https://modulargrid.com/e/pittsburgh-modular-lifeforms-touch-controller

However, that Reverb listing sold in early May, almost 4 months ago.


@bitlife Yeah, I’ve noticed this too. Daily refreshing sounds good, but if the Reverb API is having issues, that would explain why some old listings are still showing up.


I wonder if this behavior is deliberate on the part of Reverb just to get more traffic to the site? If Reverb's API feeds a dead link then sure, nobody can buy that item anymore, but they might be tempted to buy something else on Reverb. If there is no link there is no chance of a sale at all.

Reverb uses Cloudflare and for reason I don't know the Cloudflare firewall blocks the Modulargrid server from time to time. I wrote them a message but did not get a response yet.
