🆚 How this compares

vs. HTML scrapers — Tools that parse the rendered page break whenever Marktplaats tweaks its layout and often miss item attributes. This Actor reads Marktplaats' own embedded JSON, so it captures complete, structured data reliably.

vs. manual browsing — You can't track hundreds of thousands of listings and their price changes by hand. This Actor sweeps entire categories and re-runs on a schedule.

vs. generic marketplace scrapers — This Actor is tuned specifically to Marktplaats' data model (price types, locations, seller info, and per-category attributes), so the output is richer and cleaner than a one-size-fits-all tool.

❓ FAQ

Keyword or category — which should I use? Use keywords for specific products and category URLs to sweep an entire section (cars, bikes, furniture…). You can combine both in one run.

How many listings can I get? Marktplaats categories hold hundreds of thousands of listings — raise Max pages to go deep. Pagination stops automatically at the last available page.

Does the price always appear? Fixed-price listings show a price. Auction / "bidding" / "on request" listings are marked via priceType (their priceEur may be 0 or the minimum bid), so you can filter them out if you only want fixed prices.

Can I run it on a schedule? Yes — schedule daily or weekly runs to track new listings and price movements over time.

Do I need a proxy? For large runs, a Netherlands/EU residential proxy is recommended for stability.
