How this site is made
Last reviewed · Maintained by the MM2 Values Team
A values site is only worth reading if you can trust the numbers and know where the words came from. This page explains both. It is for players, for parents, and for anyone deciding whether to rely on us. We keep it short on purpose.
Where the values come from
Every value, demand score, rarity score and stability tag comes from a community trade feed. That feed is built from completed trades and from what active traders agree on. We sync with it several times a day and rebuild the pages that changed. We do not run our own panel, and we do not average several lists together.
Some items are marked in the feed as estimated. That means they are priced by comparison with similar items, not from a trade someone watched. We show an "Estimated value" badge on those pages rather than hiding it. Some items have no agreed value at all. There we show N/A instead of making a number up.
What we will not change by hand
- We never edit a value up or down ourselves, for any reason, including our own opinion of what an item should be worth.
- We never accept payment, items or favours to list, promote or move an item. Nobody has ever been offered this option and nobody will be.
- We do not freeze numbers to make the list look finished. A frozen value list is a wrong value list.
What we do change by hand is the words. The notes on each category, the guides, the FAQs, and the way computed facts are phrased. Those are ours and we are responsible for them.
How the guides are written
Guides are written by people who trade in Murder Mystery 2 and have done for years. That includes getting scammed once or twice early on, which is how most traders learn. We write from that experience and from the live data. Where a guide quotes a value or works through an example, the number is read from the feed as the page loads. So it matches the item pages instead of going stale. Where we say something about the game itself, like how an item was obtained, and we are not sure, we say we are not sure.
Every guide shows the date it was first published and the date the body last changed. We only move the updated date when the content really changes, not for a typo or a rebuild. If a guide says July, nothing important has changed since July.
Item pages
Each item page pulls together three things. The live numbers from the feed. Facts worked out from how the item sits against the rest of the list, such as its rank in its tier, the stacks that trade evenly for it, and its chroma or base twin. And hand-written notes for its category. Each page says when the value was last checked.
Items worth less than 1, like wrapping paper, old candies and most commons, still have pages so the calculator and the category grids work. We keep those out of search, because there is nothing on them anyone would search for. The feed also lists some items twice under different tiers. We keep both pages and mark the second as a copy of the first.
How the pages are produced
We should be straight about this, because a lot of value sites are not. There are more than a thousand items on this list, and no small team hand-writes a thousand pages. So the item pages are assembled by our own code. It reads the live feed, works out how each item sits against every other item, and fits those facts into a set of phrasings that lives in the site's own code. Nothing is generated fresh each time you load a page. That set of phrasings is small enough for us to read end to end, and we edit it by hand when it starts to sound stale.
The guides, the category notes and this page are different again. Those are written as articles, checked against the live values, and edited when the game moves. Every guide carries the date it last changed so you can see for yourself how current it is. If you hit a page that reads like it was churned out, tell us. We treat that as a bug, not a shortcut.
Corrections
If a value looks wrong we cannot change it on request, for the reasons above. But we can pass evidence upstream, and we can fix anything we wrote ourselves. The most useful report gives the item's exact name, what you think it should be, and what you have seen it trade for. Screenshots of finished trades beat asking prices every time.
Mistakes in guides or notes get fixed as soon as we see them, and the bigger fixes are logged on the About page. Send anything to the contact page or [email protected].
Advertising
The site is free and paid for by display ads. The ads are served by a third party that knows nothing about the page beyond the words on it, and has no say over any number. We do not run sponsored values, sponsored guides, or affiliate links to item sellers. We do not sell items, Robux or accounts, and we never will. A values site that also sells the things it values is not a values site.
Ads are not shown on the chat or private-message pages. Details on data and cookies are in the privacy policy.
Independence
MM2 Values is a fan-made site. It is not linked to Roblox Corporation, to Nikilis, or to anyone who works on Murder Mystery 2, and none of them have endorsed it. We use item names and images so you can tell which item is which. There is no official MM2 value list, and that includes ours.
Something we should say here and don't?
This page is meant to answer "can I trust this". If it leaves a question open, ask it and we will add the answer.
