eBay Active Listings & Auctions Search Scraper: US, UK, Germany

Get eBay search results for any keyword or any filtered eBay search URL, on ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, ebay.de, ebay.ca and ebay.com.au.

What you can do with it

• Price research on active listings: price, shippingCost, condition and soldCount for a keyword.
• Watch auctions: filter to auctions, sort by ending soonest, and read bids and timeLeft.
• Compare prices for the same item on ebay.com, ebay.co.uk and ebay.de, each in its own currency.
• See which results are sponsored (isSponsored) and where each one sits (position).

What you get

One record per listing:

• Listing: itemId, title, url, imageUrl, condition (as eBay shows it, for example Brand New, Pre-Owned)
• Price: price and currency; for a range such as $20.99 to $88.99 you get price (low end) and priceMax (high end); priceText as shown; originalPriceText when eBay shows a struck-through earlier price
• Shipping: shippingText (for example +$6.40 delivery) and shippingCost (0 when free)
• Format: listingType (auction, buy_it_now or auction_with_buy_it_now), bestOffer, and for auctions bids, timeLeft, endsText, plus buyItNowPrice when an auction can also be bought outright
• Signals: soldCount and watchers when eBay shows them, locationText, isSponsored. See Which fields are empty, and when.
• Seller: sellerFeedbackPercent and sellerFeedbackCount when shown. Seller names are not collected.
• Other: site, search, page, position (order within the search), fewerWordsMatch, scrapedAt

Input

• Keywords — one search per line. If you give neither keywords nor search URLs (for example an API call with an empty input), the example search mechanical keyboard on ebay.com runs.
• eBay site — ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, ebay.de, ebay.ca or ebay.com.au. Prices come in that site's currency.
• Sort by, Condition, Listing type — optional filters for the keywords.
• eBay search URLs — for anything else (category, price range, brand, location): set the filters on eBay and paste the address of the results page.
• Maximum items per search — default 100.

FAQ

Can it get eBay sold or completed listings?

No. eBay shows sold listings only to signed-in users, and this tool does not log in. Search URLs with LH_Sold or LH_Complete are rejected. It returns active listings and auctions.

How do I scrape eBay search results by keyword?

Put one search per line in Keywords, choose the eBay site, and optionally a sort order, condition and listing type. For anything else (category, price range, brand, location), set the filters on eBay and paste the address of the results page into eBay search URLs.

Which eBay sites does it cover?

ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, ebay.de, ebay.ca and ebay.com.au. Prices come in that site's currency.

Does it return item descriptions, item specifics or seller names?

No. It reads the results list, not each item's page. Seller names are not collected; seller feedback percent and count are returned when eBay shows them.

How long does a run take?

In tests on 8 October 2026, 10 items from ebay.com took 4 to 8 seconds in twelve runs of thirteen and 30 seconds in the other; 300 items took 9 to 40 seconds and 600 items 24 to 103 seconds.

How much does it cost?

$2.50 per 1,000 items on Apify's Free plan, plus a start fee of $0.00005 per run. Paid Apify plans pay less: Bronze 10%, Silver 20% and Gold 30% less. Runs that fail or return nothing cost nothing.

Limits to know about

• No sold or completed listings. eBay shows sold listings only to signed-in users, and this tool does not log in. Search URLs with LH_Sold or LH_Complete are rejected.
• Search results only. It reads the results list, not each item's page: no description, item specifics, seller name, or full shipping options.
• Run times vary. eBay refuses many automated requests at random (about four in ten in tests), so pages are asked for again until they come, and some proxy addresses are slower than others. In tests on 8 October 2026, 10 items from ebay.com took 4 to 8 seconds in twelve runs of thirteen and 30 seconds in the other; 150 items took 8 to 10 seconds, 300 items 9 to 40 seconds and 600 items 24 to 103 seconds. 120 items from each of the other four sites took 6 to 23 seconds.
• Repeats are dropped. eBay repeats some listings (mostly sponsored ones) from page to page; each item is saved once, so a page often adds fewer than 60 new items.
• Placeholders are removed, loose matches are flagged. eBay's "Shop on eBay" filler cards are dropped. When a search has few exact matches, eBay adds "Results matching fewer words"; those items are included with fewerWordsMatch: true so you can filter them out.
• isSponsored is worked out from how the page draws its "Sponsored" label (eBay puts a hidden label on every card).
• Seller feedback comes from eBay's list view, which the scraper always asks for (a pasted URL set to gallery view is switched to list view; eBay's gallery cards carry no seller feedback). Large counts are rounded by eBay (2.6K becomes 2600). A seller without ratings has sellerFeedbackCount 0 and sellerFeedbackPercent null.
• Result counts are eBay's, and eBay stops listing a search after about 10,000 items.
• timeLeft and endsText are eBay's own text in the site's language and time zone.

Which fields are empty, and when

The scraper reads what eBay prints on each result card. Fields eBay prints only for some listings are null on the others:

Field	Filled when
timeLeft, endsText, bids	Auctions (and fixed-price listings ending soon).
soldCount	eBay prints "N sold", mostly on fixed-price listings that have sold several times.
watchers	eBay prints "N watchers".
locationText	Every listing on ebay.com. On ebay.co.uk, ebay.de, ebay.ca and ebay.com.au only for items located in another country (for example from United States); domestic items have no location line.
sellerFeedbackPercent, sellerFeedbackCount	Nearly every listing; the percentage is null for sellers without ratings.
buyItNowPrice	Auctions that can also be bought outright.
priceMax	Listings with variations priced as a range.
originalPriceText	eBay shows a struck-through earlier price.

Pricing

You pay per result saved. Runs that fail or return nothing cost nothing.

Reliability

The scraper reaches each eBay site through residential proxies in that site's own country, visiting the home page first as a browser would, and repeats a refused page on the same and then on other addresses. A page that still does not come is tried through Apify's slower unblocker proxy. Every page is checked before it is saved: a page in the wrong language or with converted prices (eBay shows those to visitors from abroad) is thrown away and requested again. Pages are saved in order, so a run that stops at your item limit always holds the first items of the search. If a search still cannot be completed, the run fails with a message that names the search and says how many items were saved, instead of passing off partial data as complete.

Notes

This scraper collects listing data only. It does not collect seller names, buyer information or any other personal data, and it does not log in.
