Flexoptix Price Truth Recheck

Date: 2026-05-09

Question

The operator asked whether all Flexoptix prices, images and product information are present, and whether the prices are 100% correct.

Short Answer

No, not all 744 Flexoptix rows are complete.

The current active Flexoptix catalog scraper finds 615 active catalog products. Those 615 latest price observations were source-confirmed again after the timestamp refresh fix.

Live Counts

total Flexoptix rows: 744
active catalog products found by scraper: 615
price verified rows: 619
latest verified price observations: 615
image verified rows: 615
details verified rows: 500
price + image + details verified: 496
fully verified: 496
missing image URL: 129
missing reach label: 244
missing fiber type: 131

Code Fix

Changed packages/scraper/src/utils/db.ts so unchanged prices refresh verification timestamps:

price_observations.verified_at = NOW()
transceivers.price_verified_at = NOW()
competitor timestamp refresh uses NOW() as well

This fixes the audit trail for live source rechecks. Before this, the scraper could see the same price again but leave the old timestamp in place.

Live Recheck

Deployed db.ts to Erik and built successfully:

pnpm -C packages/scraper build

Ran the light Flexoptix catalog scraper:

Total unique products after GraphQL: 615
Flexoptix Catalog Complete: 615 products, 0 prices

Interpretation:

0 prices means no changed price rows were inserted because hashes matched existing observations.
After the timestamp fix, 615 latest Flexoptix price observations have verified_at within the last 10 minutes of the check.

Important Caveat

TIP can say "last source verified at" for the active catalog prices. It should not claim permanent absolute 100% truth because Flexoptix prices can change and may vary by account, currency, VAT/session, or availability rules.
