eBay Sold Listings Search

Search recent sold eBay listings and receive structured sale data in an Apify dataset. Use the results for resale research, pricing comparisons, market analysis, spreadsheets, or automated workflows.

The Actor returns public sold-listing search cards. It does not perform AI matching, valuations, authenticity checks, or guarantee that two products are identical.

What you get

Each dataset item can include:

• eBay item ID and listing title
• Canonical listing URL and image URL
• Sold price and currency
• Item condition
• Parsed sold date
• The query used and scrape timestamp
• A raw object containing the source card fields used to build the normalized result

Fields that eBay does not display or that cannot be parsed are returned as null.

Pricing

The result price is $0.0015 per dataset item, or $1.50 per 1,000 results. You pay for the number of items actually returned, not the requested maximum. For example, 240 returned items cost $0.36 and 60 returned items cost $0.09.

The Apify Console displays the complete run-pricing details before you start the Actor.

Input

Field	Type	Default	Allowed	Description
query	string	required	2–100 characters	Search phrase sent to eBay.
count	integer	100	1–240	Maximum number of results to return.
daysToScrape	integer	30	1–90	Return only listings with a parsed sold date within this many days.
maxWaitSeconds	integer	900	60–3600	Maximum total time to wait for backend capacity and processing.

Example:

{
  "query": "rtx 4080",
  "count": 240,
  "daysToScrape": 30,
  "maxWaitSeconds": 900
}

count is a maximum, not a guarantee. eBay may have fewer matching sold listings, omit dates from some cards, return duplicate items across pages, or temporarily stop serving a later page. The date filter excludes rows whose sold date is missing or older than the requested window.

Output example

Results are written to the run's default dataset, one item per sold listing:

{
  "marketplace": "ebay",
  "itemId": "123456789012",
  "title": "NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 16GB Graphics Card",
  "url": "https://www.ebay.com/itm/123456789012",
  "imageUrl": "https://i.ebayimg.com/images/example/s-l500.jpg",
  "soldPrice": 899.99,
  "currency": "USD",
  "condition": "Pre-Owned",
  "soldDate": "2026-08-31T00:00:00+00:00",
  "searchQuery": "rtx 4080",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-09-05T21:07:42.318000+00:00",
  "raw": {
    "sold_text": "Sold Aug 31, 2026",
    "price_text": "$899.99",
    "subtitle_text": "Pre-Owned"
  }
}

Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS, or read it through the Apify API and integrations.

Partial results and retries

The Actor retries temporary eBay error pages. For requests over 60 results, it visits consecutive result pages with pacing between them. If a later page still fails after all retries, the Actor preserves and returns valid items collected from earlier pages instead of discarding the entire run. That successful run may therefore contain fewer items than count.

If the first page cannot be read, the run fails and does not fabricate results. A successful run with an empty dataset means no qualifying results were found.

Typical runtime

A one-page request usually completes in about 30–120 seconds. Multi-page requests commonly take 2–6 minutes because pages are deliberately paced and temporary failures are retried. Queue load, eBay response time, and retry behavior can make individual runs longer. Increase maxWaitSeconds for larger requests or automation with strict retry requirements.

Troubleshooting

• Fewer results than requested: count is a ceiling. Check daysToScrape, broaden the query, or retry later if a later eBay page was temporarily unavailable.
• Empty successful dataset: no cards with a parseable sold date matched the query and date window. Try a broader query or a larger date window.
• Timed out waiting for capacity: rerun later or increase maxWaitSeconds. The Actor automatically waits and retries while capacity is temporarily full.
• Failed on an eBay error page: eBay continued returning an error after retries. Retrying the Actor later is normally sufficient.

For support, open an issue from this Actor's Issues tab and include the Apify run ID, input, and approximate run time. Never include account passwords, API tokens, or other secrets.

Data handling and privacy

The Actor processes your search input and publicly displayed eBay listing data to perform the run and operate the service. It does not require your eBay username, password, cookies, or session. Results are stored in your Apify run dataset according to your Apify account's storage and retention settings. Limited operational records, including the query, run status, timing, counts, and error diagnostics, may be retained to secure, monitor, and troubleshoot the service. Do not submit personal, confidential, or sensitive information as a search query.
