It's really hard to judge, but I guess you have to set some standards when determining market price.
For instance, I almost always buy stuff on direct BO. If the BO is too high, I don't buy it.
Now this is tricky to judge - if the BO was way below market price, it really doesn't give any indication as to how much I was really willing to pay. If it's above, it might be, but not really - I could still have been willing to pay more.

As I'm writing this, I have come to see why BO's should not be included in market price estimations, and what a bad buyer I am

The majority of sales are buyout I would guess, so no reason not to include them. Not just auction, any pvp trade or sale in shop is also effectively buyout.

that didn't make the next a106 +2k or what the average was for the month, infact, the next one sold for a bit more than they were getting already.

red's 15k sale of ml35 is a sweetheart deal from a friend. ml35 still sold on auciton for +23k earlier this week. (also, i would like to go on record and say that i don't own one. so i don't care what the price of the ml35 actually is.)

Thanks for info guys and keep it coming.

First post updated with usable Info.

To clear some matters up that have been posted...

Ingame auction sales will only be added to the first post if they are reported with a screenshot of the history.

Sales of items from EF threads will be added providing the Seller and/or Buyer is named, both is not required but prefered.

This list is just a guide to what items are reported as sold and at what price... the level of trust you base your own opinions on is completely up to you. So if you dont like the reports when both seller/buyer are not listed then just ignore them
