Goldin Auction Scraper — Trading Cards & Sports Memorabilia

Scrape auction lots from Goldin, the premier marketplace for high-end trading cards and sports memorabilia. Search by keyword (player, set, grade) or browse every active lot across all open auctions.

Great for collectors, dealers, graders, and card-flipping arbitrage who need structured pricing and grading data.

What it does

• Search Goldin lots by keyword (e.g. Michael Jordan, Pokemon PSA 10, Mickey Mantle rookie)
• Or leave the search blank to browse all live lots across every open auction
• Extracts full lot data directly from Goldin's official lots API (fast, reliable, no HTML parsing)
• Parses grade and grading company (PSA, BGS, SGC, CGC, Beckett, etc.) out of lot titles
• Distinguishes current bid (live lots) from sold/realized price (completed lots)
• Paginates automatically up to your maxResults

Input

Field	Type	Description
searchQueries	array of strings	Keywords to search. Each runs a separate search. Leave empty to browse ALL live lots.
maxResults	integer	Max lot records per run (shared across queries). Default 100.
scrapeDetails	boolean	Reserved for future use — the search API already returns full lot data.
proxyConfiguration	object	Proxy settings. Datacenter proxy is sufficient (no anti-bot). Use RESIDENTIAL only if rate-limited.

Example input

{
  "searchQueries": ["Michael Jordan", "Wayne Gretzky rookie"],
  "maxResults": 200,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}

Browse all live lots:

Field notes

• currentBid — set for open lots; null once completed.
• soldPrice — set once the lot's status is completed/sold; null while open.
• gradingCompany / grade — best-effort parse from the title (e.g. PSA + 10). May be null for raw/ungraded items or unusual title formats.
• subject — best-effort player/subject name parsed from the title; may be null.

Notes & limits

• Data comes from Goldin's public lots API — no login required.
• Prices reflect Goldin's current auction state at scrape time.
• Buyer's premium (buyerPremiumPct) is not included in the bid amount.
• Respect Goldin's terms of service and use responsibly.

Pricing

Pay-per-result: a small charge per lot returned, plus a tiny actor-start fee. You only pay for the data you get.
