eBay Sold Comps — eBay Sold Prices & Sold Listings API

Look up eBay sold prices for any item. This actor searches eBay sold listings (completed/sold results) and returns aggregated comp pricing — average, median, and a recommended resale price — with statistical outlier fencing, lot normalization, and a data-quality confidence score (A–D grade).

Get real eBay sold prices and sold listing comps for resellers, pawn shops, flippers, auction tools, and any pricing service that needs to know what items actually sold for on eBay — not what sellers are hoping to get.

Why this actor is different

Most eBay sold scrapers return a raw dump of listings and leave the pricing math to you. This actor does the work before it hands you results:

Feature	What it does
Lot normalization	Detects multi-item listings ("lot of 3", "bundle of 5", "2x") and divides to per-unit price before computing averages
IQR outlier fencing	Removes statistical outliers using interquartile range fencing — one $500 anomaly won't skew your $45 avg
Confidence score (A–D)	Every result includes a grade based on comp count, price spread, and recency so you know when to trust the number
Recommended listing price	A single suggested price — weighted blend of median (60%) and p75 (40%) — so you don't have to do the math yourself
Relevance filtering	Token-based scoring drops junk comps that technically matched the keyword but aren't the item
Condition-adjusted pricing	Optional breakdown of avg sold price by condition tier (new / used / refurbished / for_parts)
8 eBay marketplaces	US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, CA, AU — search regional sold data with a single input field
Clean schema	One camelCase field per data point — no duplicate aliases, no mixed casing

Pricing

This actor uses Pay Per Event pricing — you only pay for what you get back.

Event	Cost	When charged
comp-record-returned	$0.02 / record	Per individual sold listing in the dataset
pricing-report-generated	$0.10 / run	Once per run when aggregated stats are produced

Example: A typical run returning 25 comp records = 25 × $0.02 + $0.10 = $0.60 total.

There is no subscription, no minimum spend, and no charge for runs that return zero results.

Input

Field	Type	Required	Default	Description
searchQuery	string	✅	—	What to search for. Be specific — include brand, model, size.
maxResults	integer		25	Max comp records to return (1–100).
condition	string		all	Filter by: new, used, refurbished, for_parts.
eBaySite	string		ebay.com	Marketplace: ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, ebay.de, ebay.fr, ebay.it, ebay.es, ebay.ca, ebay.com.au.
minPrice	number		—	Drop listings below this price (applied at eBay search level).
maxPrice	number		—	Drop listings above this price (applied at eBay search level).
daysBack	integer		—	Only include comps sold within this many days (1–90).
knownBrands	string[]		[]	Brand mismatch filter. Listings with a different brand from this list are dropped.
excludedPhrases	string[]		[]	Plain-text phrases — matching titles are dropped.
excludedPatterns	string[]		[]	Regex patterns (case-insensitive) — matching titles are dropped.

Confidence grade guide

Grade	Score	What it means
A	≥ 0.85	High comp count, tight price spread, recent sales — strong signal
B	≥ 0.65	Solid data with minor caveats
C	≥ 0.45	Limited comps or noisy spread — use with judgment
D	< 0.45	Thin market, old data, or very wide spread — treat with caution

The confidence score is a weighted blend of three sub-signals: comp count (40%), price spread (35%), and recency (25%).

Notes

• This actor scrapes publicly available eBay sold listing data. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by eBay Inc.
• You are responsible for complying with eBay's Terms of Service when using data retrieved by this actor.
• Detail page fetches are used only when the search result card does not include an image. Most runs require few or no detail page fetches, keeping runtime low.
• Lot normalization confidence is 1.0 when no lot is detected, 0.85 for successful size-inferred division, and 0.30 when a lot is detected but size cannot be inferred.
