Relay sites sell GLM-5.3 Flash far below the official price. Is that credible?

We only do arithmetic: effective ÷ reference. Quotes below 15% are under the model's cost floor with no subsidy assumed; we label them "mathematically unsustainable" but don't speculate on causes or draw conclusions. Whether to buy is your call. Currently 53 sites are within range and 11 are below the cost floor.

How is a relay site's effective price calculated?

Panel list price (multiplier × $2/M) × the site's top-up rate (CNY charged per $1 of nominal credit) ÷ the day's USD/CNY rate. All three numbers are in the evidence drawer and trace to fetch snapshots.

How can I verify a site serves the real GLM-5.3 Flash?

"Within range" only means the price is not anomalous. Authenticity needs a protocol-consistency check with your own key for that site (our probe script or the open-source Veridrop); we don't judge for you.
