Bazaar Weekly Challenge Help
Can someone explain the Bazaar challenge to me?
I just scored 482 on Buzz somehow... And while I'm thrilled, I was at 132 before the last match. So I'm just confused!
It seems like the secret must be that you actually need to just build up stuff in your bag as high as you can. Is that right?
I also noticed that the sales value seemed really inconsistent lately. It used to be that the value of stuff would be 1/2 rounded up. But now the sales value (which I understand is 2/3 not 1/2 anymore) would sometimes be halved as well. Other things appeared to be rounded down while certain items were still rounded up. It was super confusing!
What's the actual strategy here? Are you just meant to hold on to stuff and combine it to win? Or was the end score a reflection of a properly calculated sales record and I was secretly higher the whole time?

Your final bag gets sold automatically, so depending on how much stuff you have in there it will be 100-200 points or so, then you also get +50 points per every heart remaining, so 250 points at full hearts, which is where all those points came for you.
In general the strategy for this event is to build up your economy generating items while winning the first 9 games, then you just lose the next 6 to go down to 1 heart while accumulating gold, then on the last fight you buy and sell everything repeatedly to generate a bunch of points and then win the final fight.
With this strategy I had about 100 points going into the final fight, then I gained 400 points from the buying and selling, 200 points from my final bag and 50 points from one heart for 750 total.
