📈 % of Retail Guard

Manifest retail values can be significantly inflated. The calculator warns you, shows what happens if true retail is lower than listed, and enforces grade-specific hard limits so you never overpay relative to what you can actually sell.

📊 Grade-Specific Projections

Not all pallets are equal. A Grade A pallet at 75% sell-through is a different deal than Grade C at 42%. The calculator adjusts worst/expected/best case based on your specific grade's sellable range — not a generic 50% guess.
