🧾 JSON sample record

One real record from run tsxOxu2Bh5lLrDFbk (emails/phones masked, long text shortened):

{
  "title": "Liquor Store for sale Queens$0Queens",
  "price": 0,
  "url": "https://www.craigslist.org/view/d/woodside-liquor-store-for-sale-queens/n3FjRD3s6q6miKoyngM5D3",

💰 Pricing

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
Actor Start (apify-actor-start)	$5e-05	Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event).
Classified listing (apify-default-dataset-item)	$0.02	Single result in the default dataset.

Pay-per-event: you pay only for what the run delivers. A run that delivers nothing bills no result events (only the actor-start event, when the actor defines one). Example: a run that delivers 100 results costs 100 × $0.02 = $2.00 plus the start fee.
