# Changelog of Mercari Scraper: Japan & US Listings, Sold Prices (`automation_craft/mercari-scraper`) Actor

- **URL**: https://apify.com/automation_craft/mercari-scraper/changelog.md
- **Full Actor documentation**: https://apify.com/automation_craft/mercari-scraper.md

### 0.2 (2026-10-20)

- Faster recovery when a Mercari US address goes silent: a Mercari US request without an answer in 15 s ends there (it
  waited 25 s) and the next try leaves through a fresh address at once (it tried the silent one again first). The log and
  the free rows say "did not answer in N s" for a request that timed out, on both markets. Inputs, rows, events and prices
  unchanged; Mercari Japan requests keep their timing.

### 0.2 (2026-10-19)

- Titles, descriptions, hashtags, comment texts and Mercari Japan's translations are delivered exactly as Mercari serves
  them, switch on or off: the masks of 2026-10-14 are off on this listing (owner rule 2026-10-19). **Include personal
  data** governs the seller fields only: a personal seller's id, display name and profile link, a seller id Mercari US
  looked up from a username you gave, and the new rows below.
- New, with **Include personal data** on: **Seller profiles** (one row per private seller of the delivered listings,
  Seller profile event), **Seller reviews** (newest first up to **Reviews per seller**, Seller review event), and the
  commenter's id and name on each comment (no extra charge). A run without them declares and bills nothing new.
- Mercari US writes "+$6.37 Buyer Protection" without "fee" now: `buyerProtectionFee` is read again (it was null on every
  detail).
- A Mercari Japan search link that names one parameter twice is refused without echoing a name the credential judge
  refuses (as on the Japan listing).

### 0.2 (2026-10-17)

- The features of the one market listings in this one (both markets, each read in its own terms): pasted search links of
  jp.mercari.com and www.mercari.com, sellers and Mercari Shops shops, brands (names or ids) and sizes, the shipping payer,
  every listing without a keyword, more orders (most liked on Japan; oldest first and recently sold on the US).
- Mercari Japan: shipping method, prefecture and Mercari Shops only filters, similar listings, retry of franchise keywords in
  Japanese, comments, Mercari's own translation (Translation event), a second currency, the country check (Country check
  event), only listings under the sold median, a residential option; auction, attribute, hashtag and rating count fields.
- Mercari US: sold within days, deals only, split by department, descriptions from the search, the walk past 1,000 listings
  of one search in the newest and oldest orders, Buyer Protection fee, total, shipping class, days to sell and Mercari
  Authenticate on the details row.
- Both: a price summary per search with a suggested buy price (Price summary event), a change monitor with re-checks of
  listings the searches no longer show (Listing check event), resume from an earlier run's dataset, labels on links, a
  per search row cap and a slower pace.
- **Include personal data** covers the new texts and fields: hashtags, comments, translations, the US description from the
  search, the seller's profile link on both markets and the US profile handle a seller writes into a text.
- Listing, Listing detail, Results page and Actor start keep their prices.

### 0.1 (2026-10-14)

- New setting **Include personal data** (`includePersonalData`, off by default). On: personal sellers' public ids and
  display names, and phone numbers and e-mail addresses sellers write into titles and descriptions, as Mercari shows them.
  Off: those two seller fields are empty, and the phone numbers, e-mail addresses and the seller's own name found in a
  personal seller's title and description, and the street addresses found in the description, are masked. Mercari Shops shops' ids, names and texts are always
  delivered as written.

### 0.1 (2026-10-12)

- First version: Mercari Japan and Mercari US listings by keyword, category id and listing link, in one row shape; status
  (on sale, sold, in trade), price, condition, colour (Japan), posted window and title filters; details with seller rating;
  a new listing monitor; free rows for every miss.
