eBay Sold Listings Scraper

What does eBay Sold Listings Scraper do?

eBay Sold Listings Scraper extracts completed and sold listings from ebay.com as structured JSON — the final sold price as a number and currency, the sold date, condition, and shipping for every result. Turn on includeDetails to also pull the full item-specifics table (brand, model, MPN, EAN) and seller identity with feedback rating, so comps can be matched by part number and weighted by seller reputation. Run it across 14 eBay markets, filter by price or condition, and use incremental mode to pull only what has sold since your last run.

Key features

• 🔎 Sold-price truth — every record carries the final sold price as text and as a parsed number with its currency (priceText / priceValue / priceCurrency), plus the sold date — what the item actually went for, structured.
• ⚡ Fast by default, deep on demand — runs default to a quick search-results price sweep. Flip includeDetails on when you need item specifics and seller data; it trades speed for depth.
• 🏷️ Item specifics — with includeDetails on, records gain brand, model, MPN, EAN and the rest of eBay's item-specifics table. Match comps by part number instead of guessing from titles.
• 👤 Seller signals — with includeDetails on, records carry sellerName, sellerFeedbackCount and profile URL, so comps can be weighted by seller rating and reputation.
• 🌎 14 eBay markets — one country input switches marketplace. Run them in parallel to compare what the same item sells for by region.
• ♻️ Incremental mode — daily runs emit only listings newly sold or changed since the last run. changeType is NEW / UPDATED / UNCHANGED / REAPPEARED / EXPIRED; repost detection flags relisted items. Saves 80–95% on recurring monitoring.
• 🎯 Batch searches — multiple search variants in one job — shared dedup, one dataset for compare/diff downstream.
• 🔔 Notifications — Telegram / Slack / Discord / WhatsApp / webhook alerts per run. Combine with incremental to ping only when prices actually move.
• 📦 Compact mode — core fields only — comparable rows for pricing dashboards without payload overhead.
• 🧹 Empty-field stripping — drop null and empty fields before push, for leaner payloads.
• 🔌 MCP connectors — export results to Notion via Apify's MCP connectors. Opt-in, deterministic field-mapping, no AI.

What data can you extract from ebay.com?

Each result includes Core listing fields (listingId, title, soldDate, soldDateText, priceText, priceValue, priceCurrency, and serpPriceText, and more) and detail fields when enrichment is enabled (detailFetched). In standard mode, all fields are always present — unavailable data points are returned as null, never omitted. In compact mode, only core fields are returned.

Enable detail enrichment in the input to get richer fields such as full descriptions where the source provides them.

Input

The main inputs are a search keyword, an optional location filter, and a result limit. Additional filters and options are available in the input schema.

Key parameters:

• query — What to search sold listings for. Use a JSON array for multiple searches, e.g. ["Nintendo Switch OLED","PS5 slim"].
• country — Which eBay marketplace to search. (default: "US")
• condition — Filter sold listings by item condition. (default: "any")
• minPrice — Only return sold listings at or above this price (marketplace currency).
• maxPrice — Only return sold listings at or below this price (marketplace currency).
• sort — How to order results within each search. (default: "best_match")
• listingType — Only return sold listings of this buying format. (default: "all")
• freeShipping — Only return sold listings that shipped free. (default: false)
• returnsAccepted — Only return sold listings from sellers who accept returns. (default: false)
• seller — A seller's username. Combine with a search term to narrow to that seller's matching sold listings, or leave the search term empty to pull the seller's entire sold history.
• soldWithinDays — Only keep listings sold within this many days. Leave empty for all sold results eBay returns.
• startUrls — Paste eBay sold-search URLs (…&LH_Sold=1&LH_Complete=1) or item URLs directly instead of a search term.
• ...and 23 more parameters

How much does it cost to scrape ebay.com?

eBay Sold Listings Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay a small fee when the run starts and then for each result that is actually produced.

• Run start: $0.02 per run
• Per listing (primary event): $0.0024

You are billed only for the events your run actually triggers. Prices below are the Free plan tier.

Event	Price (Free tier)	Charged when
Actor Start	$0.02 (one-time)	Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event).
Listing (fast)	$0.0024	One sold listing from search results — title, sold price, condition, shipping, seller. No item-page fetch.
Listing (with item details) (primary)	$0.004	One sold listing enriched from its full item page — brand, model, MPN, EAN, item specifics, seller identity, and true listing-currency price.

Example costs (primary event only — other events above add cost when they fire):

• 10 results: $0.044
• 25 results: $0.08
• 100 results: $0.26
• 200 results: $0.5
• 500 results: $1.22

Example: recurring monitoring savings

These examples compare full re-scrapes with incremental runs at different churn rates. Churn is the share of listings that are new or whose tracked content changed since the previous run. Actual churn depends on your query breadth, source activity, and polling frequency — the scenarios below are examples, not predictions.

Example setup: 100 results per run, daily polling (30 runs/month). Event-pricing examples scale linearly with result count.

Numbers below are for the primary Listing (with item details) event. Other events (Listing (fast)) are billed separately when they fire.

Churn rate	Full re-scrape run cost	Incremental run cost	Savings vs full re-scrape	Monthly cost after baseline
5% — stable niche query	$0.42	$0.04	$0.38 (90%)	$1.20
15% — moderate broad query	$0.42	$0.08	$0.34 (81%)	$2.40
30% — high-volume aggregator	$0.42	$0.14	$0.28 (67%)	$4.20

Full re-scrape monthly cost at daily polling: $12.60. First month with incremental costs $1.58 / $2.74 / $4.48 for the 5% / 15% / 30% scenarios because the first run builds baseline state at full cost before incremental savings apply.

Platform usage is included in the per-result fee shown above.
