## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

# README

## eBay Sold Listings Scraper — Real Sold Prices, Not Asking Prices

**Know what things *actually* sell for on eBay.** This scraper pulls eBay **SOLD & completed** listings by keyword and returns the data that matters: the **real final sold price**, the **sold date**, condition, shipping, seller and a clean item URL — as clean JSON, CSV or Excel.

> AI-agent ready: this Actor is callable and payable by AI agents via [x402](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/x402) (USDC on Base), no Apify account required.

Asking prices are noise. **Sold prices are the truth.** Use them to price your inventory, spot arbitrage, and value any item with confidence.

### Who uses this

- 🛒 **Resellers & flippers** — price your listings to actually sell, and find undervalued buys.
- 📈 **Arbitrage & dropshipping** — compare sold prices across sites (US/UK/DE/FR…) to find margins.
- 💵 **Price research & valuation** — appraise collectibles, electronics, sneakers, trading cards, parts.
- 📊 **Market analysts & brands** — track real demand and price trends over time.

### What you get — one clean row per sold listing

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `soldPrice` + `currency` | 💰 **The real price it sold for** (USD/GBP/EUR/…) |
| `soldDate` | 📅 When it sold ("Sold Oct 5, 2024") |
| `title` | Listing title |
| `condition` | New / Pre-Owned / … |
| `isAuction` + `bids` | Auction vs Buy-It-Now, with bid count |
| `shippingText` | Shipping / delivery cost label |
| `seller` | Seller username |
| `permalink` | Clean item URL (tracking stripped) |
| `thumbnail` | Product image URL |
| `searchTerm`, `searchRank`, `site`, `scrapedAt` | Provenance |

### Example

**Input**
```json
{ "keywords": ["nintendo switch oled", "iphone 13 128gb"], "ebaySite": "US", "maxResults": 120 }
````

**Output (one item)**

```json
{
  "title": "Nintendo Switch OLED White Console",
  "soldPrice": 195.00, "currency": "USD", "soldDate": "Sold Jul 12, 2026",
  "condition": "Pre-Owned", "isAuction": false, "shippingText": "Free delivery",
  "seller": "sheffs_kard_kitchen", "permalink": "https://www.ebay.com/itm/117297819333"
}
```

### Why this scraper

- ✅ **Real SOLD data** — not active/asking listings. This is the hard part, and it's what you actually need.
- 🌍 **8 marketplaces** — US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, CA, AU. Compare prices across regions.
- 🎯 **100% field fidelity** — measured 100% fill on sold price, date, condition, seller, URL and image across 360 real listings.
- ⚡ **Fast & affordable** — ~60 listings per page, pay only per listing returned.
- 🧹 **Clean output** — normalized prices, clean URLs, ready for Sheets/Excel/your database or API.

### Input options

- `keywords` *(required)* — one search per keyword.
- `ebaySite` — `US`, `UK`, `DE`, `FR`, `IT`, `ES`, `CA`, `AU` (default `US`).
- `maxResults` — sold listings per keyword (default 120, ~60/page).
- `maxItems` — optional global cap across all keywords.

### FAQ

**Does it return active listings?** No — only **sold/completed** listings (real transaction prices).

**Which countries?** 8 eBay marketplaces (see `ebaySite`). Prices are returned in each site's currency.

**How fresh is the data?** Live — it scrapes eBay in real time on each run.

**What does it cost?** Pay-per-result: you're only charged for sold listings actually returned. Run it on a small `maxResults` first to try it.

**Can I export to CSV/Excel/Google Sheets?** Yes — the dataset exports to JSON, CSV, Excel and HTML, or pull it via the API.

***

*Tip: run the same keyword weekly and diff the results to build your own eBay price-history dataset.*
