Scrape auction lots from K-BID.com, one of the largest online auction marketplaces in the U.S. Midwest. K-BID hosts daily auctions for estates, equipment, vehicles, collectibles, tools, household goods, and more.

This Actor extracts structured data for every lot it finds — item title, current bid, lot number, the auction it belongs to, the seller, location, category, close time, image, and a direct listing URL.

What it does

  • Keyword search — provide one or more keywords and the Actor scrapes all matching open lots across every K-BID auction, paginating automatically.
  • Browse mode — leave the keywords empty and the Actor walks every currently open auction and scrapes its lots.

Input

FieldTypeDescription
searchQueriesarray of stringsKeywords to search (e.g. ["tools", "coins"]). Empty = browse all open auctions.
maxResultsintegerMax lots to scrape. 0 = unlimited. Default 100.
scrapeDetailsbooleanReserved for future per-lot enrichment. No effect today (listing pages already carry all fields).
proxyConfigurationobjectOptional proxy settings. Residential recommended for large runs.

Example input

{
"searchQueries": ["tools", "tractor"],
"maxResults": 200
}

Output

Each dataset record represents one auction lot:

{
"title": "Tool Cabinet - Onshine - 2026 - Unused - OSTC-9",
"lotNumber": "66C",
"auctionId": "64338",
"auctionName": "NEW SUPPLIER!! H2 Equipment Multi-Item Auction",
"seller": "H2 Equipment LLC",
"location": "Columbus, NE",
"currentBid": 66,
"currentBidText": "$66.00",
"nextRequiredBid": 67,
"category": "Household & Estate > Power Tools/Shop Equipment",
"closeTime": "2026-07-06T23:50:00.000Z",
"closeTimeText": "Monday 07/06/2026 06:50 pm CDT",
"timeLeft": "1w 5d",
"itemUrl": "https://www.k-bid.com/auction/64338/item/66C",
"auctionUrl": "https://www.k-bid.com/auction/64338",
"imageUrl": "https://.../64338/M_34345824.jpg",
"scrapedAt": "2026-06-24T18:55:00.000Z"
}

Field notes

  • currentBid / nextRequiredBid are numeric; currentBidText keeps the original $ formatting.
  • closeTime is an ISO 8601 timestamp derived from K-BID's "Begins Closing" date (Central Time, best-effort). closeTimeText is the verbatim string.
  • timeLeft is a human-readable countdown (e.g. 2w 6d) captured at scrape time.

Use cases

  • Resale / arbitrage research — track lots and current bids across estate and equipment auctions.
  • Price monitoring for specific categories (tools, vehicles, coins, collectibles).
  • Building auction aggregators or alerting feeds.

Notes

  • K-BID is server-rendered HTML with no anti-bot challenge, so runs are fast and reliable.
  • Bid values reflect the moment of scraping; re-run to refresh.
