Here's the basic set up:

A| B
1| 456
1| 52
1| 78
1| 91
1| 12
1| 6
1| 7
2| 12
2| 80
2| 9
2| 15
2| 12
2| 6


And here's the question:
Basically, column A represents an item # and column B represent the
item price.

What I want to do is - and please know I'm sincere when I say I've
really been trying to solve this myself - every time A:A = 1, I want to
average the lowest 3 prices in B:B relating to A:A1... and then average
the lowest 3 prices in B:B relating to the A:A = 2.

Maybe I've completely over-thought this one.

Keep in mind, too... that this is a really basic example of what I'm
trying to do. There are over 1400 individual items, each being sold at
multiple prices. I understand enough of excel that a similarly basic
example will suffice - one that I can just create 1400+ times over.

Thanks to anyone ahead of time for your help.
