## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## eBay Sold Comps & Realized Price Scraper 🏷️

Extract verified **sold items** and **completed listings** from eBay across multiple countries (US, UK, CA, DE, FR, AU). Calculate **reseller-grade price bands** (minimum price, median price, 90th percentile, and average) to gauge true market value without relying on unproven asking prices.

***

### ⚡ Key Features

- **Actual Realized Prices**: Scrapes items that were actually bought and paid for, not just listed.
- **Price Band Intelligence**: Computes **Min**, **Median**, **P90 (90th Percentile)**, and **Average** prices directly for each search query.
- **Multi-Country Marketplaces**: Supports US (`ebay.com`), UK (`ebay.co.uk`), Canada (`ebay.ca`), Germany (`ebay.de`), France (`ebay.fr`), and Australia (`ebay.com.au`).
- **Auction vs Buy It Now**: Identifies bidding history or instant purchase type.
- **Condition & Shipping**: Tracks condition (Brand New, Pre-Owned) and shipping costs.
- **Zero Headless Overhead**: Ultra-fast, lightweight HTTP scraper (256 MB RAM friendly).

***

### 📥 Input Parameters

| Field | Type | Description | Default |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "query": "pokemon charizard vmax"
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("axery/ebay-sold-comps-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "query": "pokemon charizard vmax"
}' |
apify call axery/ebay-sold-comps-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,axery/ebay-sold-comps-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
