Mercari Japan Scraper: Listings, Prices, Sold

Mercari Japan Scraper: Listings, Prices, Sold

Scrape Mercari Japan (jp.mercari.com) listings by keyword, category, pasted search link, seller, shop or brand: title, price in yen, status (on sale, sold, in trade), condition, brand, size, category, photos, shipping and auction data, with Mercari's own English labels. Get sold comparables with a price summary per search, listings on sale priced under the sold median, Mercari's English translation of each listing, prices in a second currency, and whether a listing can be bought from your country. Give the run a monitor name and schedule it: each run then delivers the listings that are new, or also the ones whose price or status changed, the unchanged ones on request and the ones a re-check finds sold or removed (each billed as a Listing; see the monitor section).

No Mercari account, no cookies, no API key, no browser. The Actor reads only what Mercari Japan shows every visitor and checks on every page that Mercari applied the search exactly as you sent it.

This Actor is not affiliated with Mercari, Inc. or Mercari Japan.

Who uses it

• Import buyers and proxy shoppers: a monitor on ポケモンカード under a price, in English, with each listing's price in dollars and whether it ships abroad, delivered once per listing to a spreadsheet, Slack or e-mail through Apify's integrations.
• Resellers pricing their stock: sold listings of a model, between people only, with the median, quartiles and days to sell in one summary row.
• Price research and data teams: one documented schema through the Apify API, with the category tree in English.

Quick start

1. Type what you want in Keywords (pokemon card, ポケモンカード, nike), or paste Search links copied from jp.mercari.com, or give Sellers and shops, Brands or Listing links.
2. Optionally set a Status (sold for sold comparables), a price range, conditions, sizes, colours, the shipping payer or a prefecture.
3. Turn on Include details for descriptions, likes, comments, shipping and the seller's rating; pick Translate to or Second currency if you need them. Turn on Include personal data only if you also need personal sellers' ids, names and profile links and the commenters' ids and names; with it, Seller profiles and Seller reviews add a row per seller and its reviews. Titles, descriptions and comments always come exactly as the sellers wrote them.
4. Run it, then download the dataset as Excel, CSV or JSON, or read it through the Apify API.

A Japanese title often writes an English keyword in katakana: search with Japanese keywords when you use Only titles with every keyword word, or turn on Retry keywords in Japanese for franchise names written in Chinese or English.

A real row with details, a translation, a second currency and a country check (shortened, from a run on 2026-10-12):

With Price summary per search each search adds one row (type: "priceSummary"), from the listings it delivered. A real one for 60 sold nintendo switch listings (2026-10-12):

{
  "type": "priceSummary",
  "searchLabel": "Mercari Japan \"nintendo switch\"",
  "listingsWithPrice": 60,
  "lowestPrice": 700,
  "percentile25": 1797.5,
  "medianPrice": 3689.5,
  "percentile75": 11035,

  "averagePrice": 8969.17,
  "soldShare": 1,
  "medianDaysToSellApprox": 0.23,
  "quartileRatio": 6.14,
  "wideSpread": true
}

It also carries the 10th and 90th percentiles, ten listings spread across the price range (sampleListings), the figures of each status apart when the search delivered more than one (byStatus), and with Only listings under the sold median the sold sample it read first (soldSample). wideSpread is true when the upper quartile is 3 or more times the lower one (a search that mixes different products). Days to sell are approximate: Mercari Japan publishes no sale time, so a sold listing's last update stands for it.

Free rows, never charged:

• One coverage row per search (type: "search"): the count Mercari reports (totalReported), pages read, listings seen and delivered, listings already delivered in the run or known to the monitor, listings left out by filters, complete, stoppedBy, capReached, a note (for example the Japanese term of a keyword that found nothing) and, for a monitor, newListingsMayLieBeyond.
• Status rows (type: "status"): input that cannot be used, a brand name that names no single brand (with the candidates), a listing link that no longer exists or a listing deleted between the search and its detail read (not_found), a detail that could not be read, a search Mercari did not apply as sent (search_not_applied, with what was sent and what Mercari applied), and why a run stopped (limit_reached).
• A run summary (type: "summary") at the end: every counter, the events charged and the requests.

Seller profile and review rows (with Include personal data)

With Include personal data on, two more row kinds can be turned on, each billed per row. They cover every private seller of the listings the run delivers (from searches, sellers and listing links), in the order the run first delivered them; a Mercari Shops shop is a business and gets none (its name, score and review count are on its listings with details).

• Seller profiles (includeSellerProfiles, type: "seller", Seller profile): one row per seller with sellerId, sellerName, sellerUrl, followers, following, introduction (as the seller wrote it), badges and badgeDetails (Mercari's badge names in English and what they mean, such as "Highly Rated" or "Seller Level 8"), ratingAverage, ratingCount, ratingGood, ratingNormal, ratingBad, listingCount, phoneVerified, officialAccount, businessAccount, joinedAt and photoUrl.
• Seller reviews (includeSellerReviews, type: "review", Seller review): the seller's reviews newest first, up to Reviews per seller (maxReviewsPerSeller, 20 when left out), each with rating (good, normal or bad), message, reviewedAs (the role the seller had in that sale: seller or buyer), createdAt (Mercari dates a review by its day), the reviewer's reviewerId, reviewerName and reviewerUrl, its position and a reviewKey.

They describe private people, so the run refuses them, free, without Include personal data; they do not run with a Monitor name (a monitor remembers listings, not sellers). Similar listings (Similar listings of) name no seller, so with them the seller rows need Include details (refused free otherwise). The view tabs "Seller profiles" and "Seller reviews" show them. Reviews delivered before a platform restart of the run count toward Reviews per seller and are not billed again.

How much does it cost to scrape Mercari Japan?

Pay per event, with Apify's Store discounts by plan:

Event	Free plan	Bronze	Silver	Gold
Listing (one listing row)	$1.06 / 1,000	$0.97 / 1,000	$0.88 / 1,000	$0.76 / 1,000
Listing detail (the details of a delivered listing, only when details are read)	$1.40 / 1,000	$1.30 / 1,000	$1.10 / 1,000	$1.00 / 1,000
Translation (a delivered listing translated by Mercari, only with Translate to)	$0.50 / 1,000	$0.50 / 1,000	$0.45 / 1,000	$0.40 / 1,000

Seller profile (one seller profile row, only with Seller profiles)	$1.97 / 1,000	$1.80 / 1,000	$1.64 / 1,000	$1.41 / 1,000
Seller review (one review row, only with Seller reviews)	$1.97 / 1,000	$1.80 / 1,000	$1.64 / 1,000	$1.41 / 1,000
Results page (only in monitor runs: one results page read)	$0.60 / 1,000	$0.60 / 1,000	$0.60 / 1,000	$0.60 / 1,000
Actor start (once per run, flat, no plan discount)	$0.004	$0.004	$0.004	$0.004

Platinum and Diamond plans pay the Gold price. The Store pricing card shows these same prices per 1,000 events: "$0.76 / 1,000" on the Listing row means one listing costs 0.076 cents at Gold (0.106 cents on the Free plan), and "$1.60 / 1,000" on the Price summary row means one summary costs 0.16 cents at Gold.

Examples: 100 listings on the Free plan cost $0.004 + 100 x $0.00106 = $0.110. 1,000 listings with their details on the Gold plan cost $0.004 + 1,000 x ($0.00076 + $0.001) = $1.764. 200 sold listings with a price summary on the Free plan cost $0.004 + 200 x $0.00106 + $0.002 = $0.218. An hourly monitor of one keyword that reads 1 page and finds 10 new listings costs, on the Free plan, $0.004 + $0.0006 + 10 x $0.00106 = $0.0152 per run. 50 listings from 40 sellers with their profiles and up to 5 reviews each (200 reviews) cost, on the Free plan, $0.004 + 50 x $0.00106 + 40 x $0.00197 + 200 x $0.00197 = $0.5298.

Free: listings left out by your filters, listings already delivered in the run (or in the dataset you resume from), listings a monitor delivered before and that did not change (unless you ask for them with Unchanged ones too), listing links that no longer exist, searches Mercari did not apply as sent, seller profiles or reviews Mercari no longer shows, brand names that name no single brand, invalid input, coverage rows, status rows and the summary. An add-on is charged only for a delivered row that carries it, when Mercari answered. A listing link is always read with its details, so each one delivered is billed as Listing plus Listing detail. A monitor's Results page is charged once the page was read and Mercari applied the search as sent. With Changes too, a listing that changed is billed as a Listing again; with Unchanged ones too each unchanged listing delivered is billed as a Listing; with Check listings the searches no longer show each answered re-read is a Listing check, and each listing it finds sold, changed or removed is delivered and billed as a Listing (plus a Listing detail with details for a changed one). These re-checks are bounded by Maximum listing checks, not by Maximum listings.

Input

Every keyword is searched in every category id you give and for every seller or shop you give (at most 100 searches a run). A pasted search link is a search of its own with the filters on it; the search filters below apply to keyword, category, seller, brand and similar searches, and the filters applied by this Actor apply to every search.

What to search

• Keywords: words as you would type them on Mercari Japan, Japanese or English. Up to 100.
• Category ids: the number after category_id= in a jp.mercari.com search link (for example 7002 for Nintendo Switch); checked against Mercari Japan's own category list.
• Search links: links copied from jp.mercari.com (https://jp.mercari.com/search?keyword=...), read with every filter on them as the site reads them: keyword, excluded word, category, brand, size, seller, price, condition, shipping payer, prefecture, shipping method, colour, status, order, Mercari Shops or personal, and the attribute filters. A link with the coupon filter (which Mercari applies only for a signed in buyer) is refused. Give a link as

  {"url": "...", "label": "my search"}
  and its rows carry your label.
• Sellers and shops: seller profile links (https://jp.mercari.com/user/profile/123456789), seller ids, or Mercari Shops shop links (https://jp.mercari.com/shops/profile/...): their listings, filtered by the settings below.
• Listing links: https://jp.mercari.com/item/m... or https://jp.mercari.com/shops/product/... (or a bare m... id), each read with its details and delivered as given (their comments need Include details on as well). Up to 5,000.
• Similar listings of: listings whose similar listings, as Mercari shows them on the listing page, are delivered (30 a page). Their rows carry the title, price, status and type; filters on anything else need Include details.
• Search every listing: all of Mercari Japan without a keyword, with your filters.
• Retry keywords in Japanese: a keyword that finds nothing and is a franchise name written in Chinese or English (for example 宝可梦 or one piece) is searched once as the Japanese term sellers use (ポケモン, ワンピース); 30 franchises.

Search filters (applied by Mercari and checked on every page)

• Status: on_sale, sold, trading, one or more (default on_sale).
• Order: newest first (the default; Mercari moves a listing up it when the seller edits it), best match, price low to high, price high to low, most liked first.
• Price in whole yen; Condition (new, like_new, good, fair, poor); Brands (names such as NIKE, ナイキ or brand ids; a name is used only when exactly one Mercari brand carries it); Size ids; Colour (Mercari Japan's 12); Shipping paid by (seller, buyer); Shipping method (anonymous, japan_post, no_option); Ships from prefecture (ids 1 to 47 or names such as Tokyo); Personal listings only or Mercari Shops listings only.

Filters applied by this Actor (a listing they leave out is free)

• Exclude words: listings whose title holds one of them are left out (the same word start rule as the title match).
• Posted within days: only listings created within that many days before the run started.
• Only titles with every keyword word.

Details and add-ons

• Include details (Listing detail), Include comments (with details, no extra charge), Translate to (en or zh-TW, Translation), Second currency (USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, CNY, TWD, HKD, KRW, no extra charge), Check buyable from country (a two letter code, Country check), Price summary per search (Price summary), Only listings under the sold median (reads up to 3 pages of the search's sold listings first, then delivers listings on sale under their median, with a Price summary).
• Seller profiles (Seller profile) and Seller reviews (Seller review) with Reviews per seller, with Include personal data on: the rows of the section "Seller profile and review rows" above.

Personal data. The fields that name or reach a private seller are delivered only when the run turns on Include personal data (includePersonalData): a personal seller's public id, display name and profile link, the commenters' ids and names, and the seller profile and review rows. With it off (the default) those fields are null and those rows are not made. Titles, descriptions, hashtags, comments and Mercari's translations are delivered exactly as Mercari serves them, switch on or off: whatever a seller wrote into them, phone numbers and e-mail addresses included, comes as written. A Mercari Shops shop's id, name and link are business data and always delivered. Mercari shows visitors who are not signed in no seller phone or e-mail field, so the rows have none. The seller ids you give in Sellers and shops are your own input and come back as you gave them (searchSellerId, searchKey). You are responsible for a lawful use, GDPR included.

Limits and advanced

• Maximum listings (default 100: the listings the searches and links deliver; a monitor's re-checks have their own bound, Maximum listing checks), Maximum listings per search, Maximum pages per search (default 10, about 120 listings a page).
• Resume from dataset: the id of an earlier run's dataset; its listings are not delivered or charged again (a dataset of up to 200,000 rows; a larger one refuses the run, free).
• Use residential proxy: read Mercari Japan through Apify residential exits in Japan instead of the datacenter group (no extra charge).

The monitor: new listings, and changes

Give the run a Monitor name (for example pokemon-cards-jp) and schedule it. Every run reads the newest pages of each search up to Maximum pages per search and delivers the listings this monitor has not delivered before; listings it delivered are free unless they come back as described below (changed, unchanged on request, or found by a re-check), each then billed as a Listing. Each results page a monitor reads is charged as a Results page. One monitor name belongs to one set of settings (searches, filters, the details switch and the change mode); the add-ons and the change options can be switched without a new name.

With Changes too, a listing the monitor delivered before whose price or status changed (a price cut, sold, in trade) is delivered again with monitorState: "changed", the changed fields, the previous price and status, the price change and its direction, and when the monitor first and last saw it. Because Mercari Japan's newest first order follows the last update, an edited listing comes back to the top, where the monitor sees it. Unchanged ones too delivers the known listings as well (unchanged, each billed as a Listing). Check listings the searches no longer show re-reads up to Maximum listing checks remembered listings on sale that no page of the run showed, longest unseen first, and delivers the ones that sold, changed their price (changed) or were removed (removed); each answered re-read is a Listing check, and each row it delivers is a Listing (these do not count toward Maximum listings).

Caps and facts

• One Mercari Japan search serves about 10,000 listings; when a walk ends there and Mercari reports more, the coverage row says capReached: true: narrow the search with a price band, a category or a condition to reach the rest.
• There is no oldest first order: Mercari Japan answers an ascending order on newest, best match and likes with the descending one (measured 2026-10-12); a pasted link asking for it is read as the site shows it, with a note.
• Newest first follows the last update, not the creation time: postedWithinDays leaves older rows out for free and the walk goes on to the page limit.
• A sold search is mostly Mercari Shops products; Personal listings only keeps sales between people.
• Several statuses in one search: Mercari lists the ones on sale first in every order except most liked (60 of the first 60 nintendo switch rows in newest, best match and lowest price order, 2026-10-12); for sold comparables search sold on its own.
• Every page is checked: Mercari answers each search with the search it applied, and a page whose keyword, status, sort, price, category, brand, size, seller, condition, colour, payer, prefecture, method, attribute or listing type differs from what was sent delivers nothing and ends that search with a free row. Similar listings are Mercari's own choice and carry no such answer.
• A detail is newer than its search row: with details on, every filter is checked again on the detail, and a brand, size or colour the detail no longer carries leaves the listing out for free.
• Refusals: when Mercari refuses an address the run moves to a fresh one, at most 3 times a run; after that the run stops reading with a free row. A translation, country check, exchange rate or brand lookup that Mercari does not answer only leaves that one value out.
• Work that delivers nothing is bounded: the requests that deliver no billed row are counted at what they cost the run, and a run may spend USD 0.00045 of them plus USD 0.00009 per listing, 0.00003 per listing detail and 0.00003 per Results page billed; then it stops with a free row that says so. A filter that almost no listing passes, or a long list of links that no longer exist, ends there; narrow the search or split the list.
• The Actor runs at 256 MB, fixed. A run writes at most 30 status rows of one kind about single listings, links or searches; the summary counts every one.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Mercari?

This Actor reads only public data, without logging in. The fields that name or reach a private seller (a personal seller's id, name and profile link, commenters' ids and names, seller profiles and reviews) come only when you turn on Include personal data; titles, descriptions and comments come exactly as the sellers wrote them. Whether your use is lawful depends on where you are, Mercari's terms and what you do with the data, personal data included; that responsibility is yours.

Can I get a Mercari seller's profile and reviews?

Yes, for the sellers of the listings a run delivers: turn on Include personal data, then Seller profiles (followers, introduction, badges, rating with its good, normal and bad counts, number of listings, the date they joined) and Seller reviews (newest first, up to Reviews per seller, with each reviewer's id and name). To read one seller, give their profile link in Sellers and shops with Maximum listings set low: the seller's listings come first, then the profile and the reviews.

Does Mercari have an official API?

Mercari Japan offers no public API for searching its listings. This Actor reads the same listing data Mercari's own web pages load, with no key or account from Mercari, and gives you the rows through the Apify API (examples below).

How do I get Mercari Japan sold prices?

Set Status to sold (add trading for sales not yet completed) and turn on Personal listings only for sales between people; with Price summary per search each search adds its median, quartiles, average and approximate days to sell. To find bargains, Only listings under the sold median delivers listings on sale priced under the median of the same search's sold listings.

Can I read Mercari Japan listings in English?

Conditions, categories and shipping are always in Mercari's own English. With Translate to en each delivered listing also carries Mercari's own machine translation of its title and description (translatedTitle, translatedDescription), and Second currency adds its price in dollars, euros or another currency at Mercari's exchange rate.

Why did my Mercari Japan alerts stop after a month?

Mercari Japan's saved search notifications are valid for 30 days after you set them up. A monitor of this Actor has no such limit: schedule a run with a Monitor name and every run delivers the listings it has not delivered before (and with Changes too the price cuts and sales, each billed as a Listing again), until the monitor holds 100,000 listings.

Why does this Actor run with limited permissions?

It needs no access to your other Apify data. It only writes to its own run's dataset and key-value store and, when you use a monitor, to one named key-value store it creates itself for that monitor; with Resume from dataset it reads the one dataset you name.

What this Actor does not do

• No login, buying, offers, likes, messages or anything behind a Mercari account.
• No seller profile or review rows for a Mercari Shops shop, none without Include personal data, and none in a monitor run: run them without a monitor name. No seller's followers list: the profile row carries the counts.
• No oldest first order and no likes ascending order: Mercari Japan does not serve them.
• No coupon filter: Mercari applies it only for a signed in buyer.
• No connectors of its own (Notion, Airtable, Linear): the dataset is the output, read through the Apify API or Apify's integrations (Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, Slack, webhooks), which use your own accounts there.
• No setting for the number of parallel requests: the Actor reads at about 1.5 requests a second, politely.
• No Mercari US: this listing reads Mercari Japan only.
• No more than about 10,000 rows from one search: split by price band or category.
• No photo download: photo addresses are in every row.
• No sales count per seller: Mercari Japan publishes none; the seller's number of listings is sellerListingCount.
• No ready made tasks are published with this listing: start from the input form's example or the API examples below.
