Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## USAudioMart & CanuckAudioMart — Used Audio Equipment Listings Scraper Scrape used audio equipment listings from [USAudioMart](https://www.usaudiomart.com) and [CanuckAudioMart](https://www.canuckaudiomart.com) — North America's two largest audiophile classifieds sites. Returns structured listing data including price, condition, seller info, description, and photos for hardware and software categories. --- ### What You Get Each listing record contains up to 19 fields: | Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | `listing_id` | Numeric listing identifier from the source site | | `title` | Listing title (FOR SALE / FOR TRADE prefix stripped) | | `manufacturer` | Manufacturer name (`null` — extract from title if needed) | | `model` | Model name (`null` — extract from title if needed) | | `category` | Equipment category (`null` — hardware or software) | | `price` | Asking price as a float (e.g. `499.00`) | | `currency` | `USD` (USAudioMart) or `CAD` (CanuckAudioMart) | | `condition` | Normalized condition: `Mint`, `Excellent`, `Very Good`, `Good`, `Fair`, `Poor`, `New`, or `Used` | | `description` | Full listing description, up to 5,000 characters | | `country` | `US` or `CA` | | `region` | Seller's city or region | | `seller_username` | Seller's account username | | `seller_feedback` | Seller feedback score (`null` — not extracted) | | `seller_member_since` | Member since date (`null` — not extracted) | | `shipping_options` | Shipping notes from the listing | | `listing_url` | Direct URL to the listing detail page | | `source_site` | `usaudiomart` or `canuckaudiomart` | | `image_urls` | Pipe-separated image URLs (up to 20 per listing) | | `listed_at` | Date the listing was posted | | `scraped_at` | ISO-8601 timestamp of extraction | --- ### Quick Start Default run — scrapes both sites, returns up to 50 listings: ```json { "sites": ["usaudiomart", "canuckaudiomart"], "maxItems": 50 } ```` USAudioMart only: ```json { "sites": ["usaudiomart"], "maxItems": 100 } ``` CanuckAudioMart only (Canadian market): ```json { "sites": ["canuckaudiomart"], "maxItems": 100 } ``` #### Input Parameters | Parameter | Type | Default | Description | |-----------|------|---------|-------------| | `sites` | array | `["usaudiomart", "canuckaudiomart"]` | Which sites to scrape. Valid values: `usaudiomart`, `canuckaudiomart`. | | `maxItems` | integer | `50` | Maximum total listings across all selected sites. Items are split 50/50 between sites when both are selected. | *** ### Sample Output ```json { "listing_id": "649943063", "title": "McIntosh C22 Preamp", "manufacturer": null, "model": null, "category": null, "price": 3200.00, "currency": "USD", "condition": "Excellent", "description": "Original McIntosh C22 preamplifier in excellent working condition. All tubes present and tested...", "country": "US", "region": "Seattle", "seller_username": "audiophile_pacific", "seller_feedback": null, "seller_member_since": null, "shipping_options": "Ships CONUS", "listing_url": "https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649943063-mcintosh-c22-preamp/", "source_site": "usaudiomart", "image_urls": "https://img.usaudiomart.com/uploads/large/649943063/xyz.jpg", "listed_at": "May 20, 2026 9:14am (PST)", "scraped_at": "2026-05-25T21:20:00.000Z" } ``` *** ### Use Cases - **Audiophile price tracking** — Monitor asking prices for specific equipment models across both markets to understand fair market value and price trends over time. - **Dealer and reseller sourcing** — Identify underpriced listings for turnaround opportunities in the North American used hi-fi market. - **Market research** — Analyze which brands, models, and equipment categories dominate the used market, and track condition distributions for pricing models. - **Price guides and valuation tools** — Feed structured listing data into a valuation database to provide real-world pricing data for insurance, estate, and appraisal purposes. - **Inventory monitoring** — Alert on new listings matching specific search criteria (e.g. McIntosh amplifiers, Klipsch speakers, vintage turntables) without manual daily checks. - **Academic and economic research** — Study secondary market dynamics for consumer electronics and audio equipment as a proxy for disposable income and hobby spending patterns. *** ### How It Works The scraper crawls both sites' hardware and software classifieds pages using residential proxies (both sites block datacenter IPs). It discovers listings from the category index pages, then visits each detail page to extract the full listing data including price, condition, description, seller info, and photos. Pagination is handled automatically — the scraper follows `?page=N` links up to 50 pages per category. The `maxItems` cap stops the run early once enough listings have been collected. Both sites share identical URL and HTML structure, built on the same classifieds platform. *** ### Notes - Price is extracted from the listing detail page's info table. Some listings may have no price (trade-only listings) — `price` will be `null` in those cases. - `manufacturer` and `model` are `null` — they are not reliably parseable from free-text titles without an equipment database lookup. Extract them from `title` with your own logic. - `image_urls` is a pipe (`|`) separated string of up to 20 image URLs per listing. - Featured listings on the index page link via a redirect URL; the scraper follows these redirects automatically to reach the canonical detail page. # Actor input Schema ## `sp_intended_usage` (type: `string`): Please describe how you plan to use the data extracted by this crawler. ## `sp_improvement_suggestions` (type: `string`): Provide any feedback or suggestions for improvements. ## `sp_contact` (type: `string`): Provide your email address so we can get in touch with you. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of records to scrape ## `sites` (type: `array`): Which sites to include: \["usaudiomart","canuckaudiomart"] or just one.
