## Pricing

from $16.00 / 1,000 vestiaire products

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Vestiaire Collective Scraper

**Free plan limit:** Free-plan users can receive up to **5 result records per run**. Paid-plan and local/unknown runs retain the Actor's existing limits.

Scrape public Vestiaire Collective search results, category pages, designer pages, and individual product listings into structured resale-market records for pricing research, inventory monitoring, competitive analysis, and data pipelines.

### What it extracts

Each default-dataset item represents one live product listing. Listing pages are used only to discover product URLs and are never mixed into the product dataset.

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `productId`, `url` | Vestiaire reference and canonical product URL |
| `name`, `brand`, `model`, `category` | Product identity and classification |
| `price`, `currency`, `availability` | Current storefront offer data |
| `condition`, `color`, `material`, `size` | Public product attributes |
| `location`, `sellerName`, `sellerUrl` | Public shipping origin and seller identity |
| `onlineSince`, `description` | Listing date and optional seller description |
| `imageUrl`, `imageUrls` | Main and gallery image URLs |
| `height`, `width` | Structured dimensions when stated |
| `scrapedAt` | UTC extraction timestamp |

The Actor reads product JSON-LD first and augments it with public page details and image URLs. Missing optional values are returned as `null`, keeping a stable schema across categories.

### When to use it

Use this Actor to:

- track second-hand designer pricing and assortment;
- research brands, models, materials, conditions, and seller locations;
- collect product URLs for inventory or market-monitoring workflows;
- export Vestiaire Collective listings to JSON, CSV, Excel, or downstream Apify integrations.

Do not use it to access accounts, messages, saved items, checkout data, private seller information, or content behind authentication. The Actor does not buy, bid, make offers, or modify Vestiaire Collective data.

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---:|---|
| `query` | string | `chanel bag` | Keyword search; ignored when `startUrls` is supplied |
| `startUrls` | array | `[]` | Search, category, designer, or `.shtml` product URLs |
| `maxResults` | integer | `5` | 1–1000 delivered product records |
| `includeDescription` | boolean | `true` | Include or omit the seller description |
| `maxConcurrency` | integer | `2` | 1–5 simultaneous browser pages |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Residential US | Apify proxy settings for coherent cloud sessions |

Search example:

```json
{
  "query": "chanel bag",
  "maxResults": 10,
  "includeDescription": true
}
```

Category and product URL example:

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.vestiairecollective.com/women-bags/handbags/" },
    { "url": "https://www.vestiairecollective.com/women-bags/handbags/prada/black-polyamide-triangle-prada-handbag-70470920.shtml" }
  ],
  "maxResults": 25
}
```

API example:

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/YOUR_USERNAME~vestiaire-collective-scraper/runs?waitForFinish=300" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query":"prada handbag","maxResults":5}'
```

Keep API tokens in headers or secret storage; never put them in shared URLs or logs.

### Output example

```json
{
  "productId": "70470920",

```

Run diagnostics are written to the `OUTPUT` key-value-store record, not mixed into the dataset. Its `outcome` is one of `DATA`, `EMPTY`, `BLOCKED`, `REJECTED`, or `FAILED` and includes delivered/discovered counts plus bounded warnings.

### Pay per event pricing

Current Apify event prices and platform-usage treatment are listed in the dedicated [Pricing section](#pricing) below.

At the default 1 GB memory, a 10-product run has an event price of **$0.36** and a 100-product run has an event price of **$2.25**. Allocating more memory increases the synthetic start charge by $0.15 per GB.

### Reliability and limits

Vestiaire Collective currently uses Cloudflare managed challenges. The Actor therefore uses a real browser, session-bound fingerprints and cookies, bounded retries, low concurrency, and residential proxy defaults. A session is retired after an access challenge. Pagination is capped at 50 listing pages per start URL and the run stops discovering items once `maxResults` is reached.

Valid no-match inputs return zero product rows with an `EMPTY` summary. Repeated access challenges return a `BLOCKED` summary with zero result events. Invalid domains are rejected before crawling. Partial valid data is preserved when individual products fail, with each skip recorded in `OUTPUT` and the run log.

Prices, availability, listings, and exchange presentation can change at any time. The Actor reports the storefront currency and data visible during the run; it does not guarantee that an item remains purchasable afterward.

### Responsible use

Scrape only public data you are legally permitted to use. Respect applicable laws, privacy rights, database rights, contractual restrictions, and Vestiaire Collective's terms and robots policies. Do not use the Actor to profile individuals, collect sensitive personal data, circumvent authentication or CAPTCHAs, or overload the site. Keep concurrency and result limits proportionate to your legitimate use case.

### Support

For a reproducible issue, share the Actor run ID, redacted input, expected outcome, and affected public URL. Never share proxy passwords, API tokens, cookies, or account credentials.

### Pricing

This Actor uses **pay-per-event** pricing. These are the current Apify Store event prices:

| Event | Price (USD) | When it is charged |
|---|---:|---|
| `apify-default-dataset-item` | FREE: $0.021; BRONZE: $0.02; SILVER: $0.019; GOLD: $0.016; PLATINUM: $0.016; DIAMOND: $0.016 | Vestiaire product — One schema-valid Vestiaire Collective product record written to the default dataset. |
| `apify-actor-start` | $0.15 | Actor Start — Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). — Charged once per run. |

Apify platform usage for this Actor run is included alongside the event prices above; no separate per-run platform-usage fee is passed to users.

This covers Apify platform usage for this Actor run. Other Apify products or usage outside this Actor run may still follow your account plan.

# Actor input Schema

## `query` (type: `string`):

Use this when you want a keyword search. Enter a brand or item phrase such as `chanel bag`. The default is `chanel bag`; it is ignored when Start URLs are supplied.

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Use this for Vestiaire Collective search, category, designer, or `.shtml` product URLs. Example: `https://www.vestiairecollective.com/women-bags/handbags/`. Leave empty to use Search query.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Use this to cap delivered and billable product records. Minimum 1, maximum 1000, default 5. Listing pages are not billed as results.

## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`):

Use this to include the seller's public item description. Default true. Disable it for smaller exports; other product fields are unchanged.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

Use this to control simultaneous browser pages. Range 1–5, default 2. Higher values may increase blocking and proxy traffic.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Use this when Vestiaire Collective challenges cloud traffic. The default uses Apify Residential proxies in the US for a coherent session; you may choose another supported country or proxy configuration.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "query": "chanel bag",
  "startUrls": [],
  "maxResults": 5,
  "includeDescription": true,
  "maxConcurrency": 2,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "US"
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `products` (type: `string`):

Schema-validated product records in the default dataset.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "query": "chanel bag"
}' |
apify call muhammadafzal/vestiaire-collective-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,muhammadafzal/vestiaire-collective-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
