Card Kingdom MTG Price & Stock Alert

What does Card Kingdom MTG Price & Stock Alert do?

Card Kingdom MTG Price & Stock Alert searches Card Kingdom, the United States marketplace, for any item and collects the matching listings. Each row has the title, price, currency, description, location, category, condition, seller name, photos, posting time and the listing link. Add several search terms, filter by minimum and maximum price, and turn on monitor mode so a scheduled run returns only listings that are new or whose price dropped since the previous run.

Why use Card Kingdom MTG Price & Stock Alert?

• Find deals on Card Kingdom the moment they are listed instead of refreshing the site.
• Track several searches at once with separate limits and a shared price range.
• Price-drop alerts show when an already-seen listing becomes cheaper.
• Clean structured rows for resellers, price trackers, spreadsheets and Telegram or Discord bots.
• No account or login needed.

What makes this different

Built for hunting deals rather than one-off exports: it searches many terms in one run, keeps a baseline per search between runs, and reports only new listings and real price drops in monitor mode. Prices are normalised to numbers in USD.

How it works

1. Your input — type one or more search terms and optional price filters.
2. The Actor collects it — the Actor searches Card Kingdom for each term, newest first, and applies your filters.
3. Your output — you get one clean row per listing, or only new listings and price drops in monitor mode.

Tips for Best Results

• Schedule monitor mode every 10 to 60 minutes and send new rows to Telegram, Discord or Slack.
• Use specific terms (brand and model) to keep the results relevant.
• Keep the same search terms and price range between scheduled runs - the baseline is kept per search.
• Search in English (a Magic: The Gathering card name), the language listings are written in.

Known Limitations

• Only listings that Card Kingdom shows in its public search are returned.
• Prices are in US dollars and are the store's selling prices.
• The price field is the lowest price among the conditions in stock; every condition's price and stock are in the attributes.
• Search results carry no seller or location, so those fields are null.
• Monitor mode re-reads the whole search on every run.
• Some listings have no price or condition; those fields are null.
• Prices are in USD and are not converted.
• Sold and removed listings disappear from search, so they are not reported.

Integrations

Run it from the Apify API, on a schedule, or from a webhook. Send results straight to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, Slack or your own database with Apify's built-in integrations.

Export Formats

Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, HTML table or RSS from the Output tab or the API.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I scrape Card Kingdom listings?

Turn on Monitor mode and schedule the run. Each run returns only listings that earlier runs of the same search did not report.

Can I get price-drop alerts?

Can I filter by price?

Yes. Set a minimum and maximum price in the marketplace currency.

How many results can I get?

The default is 20 listings per search term. Raise Max results to collect more; the marketplace itself limits how deep a search goes.

How fresh is the data?

It is read live from Card Kingdom on every run.

Does it remove duplicates?

Yes. Each listing appears once per run.

Do I need an account or login?

No. The Actor collects public Card Kingdom search results and needs no account, cookies or API key.

Am I charged for failed runs or empty results?

You are only charged for results that are actually written to the dataset.
