# Research Product: {{ argument }}

You are researching **{{ argument }}** from an apartment renovation sale. Follow these steps in order.

## Step 1 – Identify the Product

1. Look at the photos in `marketplace/{{ argument }}/` — read all image files in that folder.
2. If there is a spec label (sticker on back/side/bottom), read it carefully for:
   - Brand, model number, serial number
   - Capacity, dimensions, voltage, year of manufacture
3. If no label is visible, use web search or product knowledge to identify it.

## Step 2 – Find the Official Product URL

1. Search for `<brand> <model>` on the manufacturer's Israeli website (e.g. bosch-home.co.il, lg.com/il, samsung.com/il)
2. Record the URL — this goes in the **לינק רשמי** field in LISTING.md
3. Note key specs from the official page for the listing description

## Step 3 – Research Market Prices

Search both **Yad2** (yad2.co.il) and **Facebook Marketplace** (facebook.com/marketplace) using the browser.

### Yad2
1. Navigate to yad2.co.il → יד שנייה → מוצרי חשמל
2. Search for brand + product type in Hebrew
3. Note asking prices for 3–5 comparable listings

### Facebook Marketplace
1. Navigate to facebook.com/marketplace
2. Set location to Tel Aviv, radius 20–40 km
3. Search for brand + model (Hebrew or model number)
4. Priority: exact same model = best price anchor
5. Collect URLs of 2–3 most comparable listings (for מוצרים דומים section)

### Price Analysis
- **Minimum**: cheapest comparable in working condition
- **Maximum**: best-condition comparable
- **Average**: average of min and max
- **Asking price**: slightly below average to sell quickly; at average if condition is good

Pricing factors: age, condition, brand premium (Bosch/Siemens > Samsung/LG > other), size/capacity.

## Step 4 – Write the Listing

### Title (כותרת לפוסט)
Format: `<Brand> <Model> – <key feature>, <size/capacity>, <color/material>`
Keep under ~60 characters. Always include brand + model.

### Description (תיאור לפוסט)
Write in Hebrew using this template:
```
[סוג מוצר] [Brand] דגם [Model].
[Spec 1 | Spec 2 | Spec 3].
שנת ייצור: [Year].
[Condition statement].
מוכרים עקב שיפוץ ורכישת [product] חדש.
איסוף בלבד.
```

## Step 5 – Update LISTING.md

1. Read `marketplace/{{ argument }}/LISTING.md`
2. Update all sections:
   - **פרטי מוצר** table: דגם, לינק רשמי, קטגוריה
   - **מוצרים דומים**: comparable listing URLs (2–3 links)
   - **מחירי שוק** table: מינימום, מקסימום, ממוצע, מחיר מבוקש
   - **כותרת לפוסט**: listing title
   - **תיאור לפוסט**: listing description
3. If the file doesn't exist, create it following the standard format (see other product directories for reference).
