FAQ

Q: What vehicle types can I search? A: The scraper supports Cars & Trucks, Motorcycles, Boats, RVs & Campers, ATVs/UTVs/Snowmobiles, Commercial Trucks, and Other Vehicles. Select the appropriate vehicleType in searchVehicles mode.

Q: Can I search for parts and accessories? A: Yes, set mode to searchParts and pick the partCategory (Car & Truck Parts, Motorcycle Parts, Boat Parts, ATV Parts, or Other).

Q: How do I scrape a specific listing I found on eBay Motors? A: Set mode to byListingUrls and add the eBay item URLs (like https://www.ebay.com/itm/123456789) to the startUrls field.

Q: Can I filter by price range and model year? A: Yes. Use minPrice/maxPrice for price filtering and minYear/maxYear to restrict by model year. All filters can be combined.

Q: How many listings can I scrape? A: Up to 5,000 listings per run by setting maxItems. eBay paginates at 25 listings per page, so larger runs require multiple page fetches.

Q: Does this scrape auction listings? A: Yes. Auction listings include bids and listingType: "Auction" in the output, plus timeRemaining whenever eBay's listing page exposes a visible countdown for that item.

Q: What data is available for parts listings? A: Parts listings return the same fields as vehicle listings where applicable (title, price, condition, seller info, images, shipping) plus a partType field identifying the parts category.

Q: Why might some fields be missing? A: Not every listing includes all fields — for example, a private seller may not list mileage, or a parts listing won't have year/make/model. The scraper only outputs fields it can reliably extract; null/empty fields are omitted.

Q: What does isTrendingRecommendation mean? A: If you run searchVehicles with no searchQuery and no price/year/condition filters, eBay doesn't return a real search-results page — it shows a curated, unfiltered "Trending Vehicles" module instead. Records sourced from that module are tagged isTrendingRecommendation: true so you know they weren't matched against any filter criteria (this field is omitted entirely on normal, filtered search results). As soon as you provide a searchQuery or any filter, real filtered search results are returned and this field never appears.
