Facebook Marketplace Scraper

What does it do?

Facebook Marketplace Scraper extracts product listings from Facebook Marketplace by location and search query. It collects listing titles, prices, locations, seller information, conditions, descriptions, and images. The scraper uses a real browser to render Facebook's dynamic content and scrolls to load multiple listings.

Why use this scraper?

Facebook Marketplace is one of the largest peer-to-peer selling platforms with millions of active listings across furniture, electronics, vehicles, clothing, and more. This scraper enables market researchers, resellers, and analysts to collect structured data from local marketplace listings. Monitor local pricing trends, identify resale opportunities, track competitor listings, or build datasets for local market analysis.

1. Navigate to the Facebook Marketplace Scraper on Apify.
2. Enter your search location and query in the input.
3. Set the maximum number of listings to scrape.
4. Click "Start" to begin scraping.

Cost of usage

This scraper uses Puppeteer with higher memory instances. Approximate cost is $1.50 per 1,000 listings with Apify proxy. Costs depend on the number of listings, scroll depth, and proxy usage. Facebook's dynamic rendering requires browser-based scraping which uses more compute resources.

Tips

• Facebook Marketplace requires location context for best results.
• Start with common search terms for broader result sets.
• Some listings may require login to view full details.
• Use proxy rotation for best results with Facebook's anti-bot measures.
• Schedule regular runs to track new listings and price changes.
• Compare pricing across different locations for arbitrage opportunities.
• The scraper automatically scrolls to load more listings from the feed.
