Is it legal to scrape eBay?

Web scraping of publicly available data is generally legal, as established by the US Ninth Circuit Court ruling in hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn (2022). The eBay Sold Listings Scraper collects only publicly visible information from eBay's search results pages — data that any visitor can see without logging in.

This actor does not bypass any authentication, access private user data, or violate eBay's technical protections. Users are responsible for ensuring their use case complies with applicable laws and eBay's terms of service.

For more on web scraping legality, see Apify's guide to web scraping and the law.

FAQ

What's the difference between sold price and asking price? This actor returns only confirmed sales — items where a buyer actually completed the purchase. When isBestOfferAccepted is true, the soldPrice field shows the seller's asking price (not the accepted offer amount, which eBay doesn't disclose).

Which eBay sites are supported? Eight marketplaces: ebay.com (US), ebay.co.uk (UK), ebay.de (Germany), ebay.fr (France), ebay.it (Italy), ebay.es (Spain), ebay.ca (Canada), and ebay.com.au (Australia). Each returns prices in the local currency.

Can I schedule recurring runs? Yes. Use Apify's scheduling feature to run this actor daily, weekly, or at any custom interval. Combine with webhooks to automatically process new data.

How do I filter by subcategory? Set the subcategoryId field to an eBay category ID number. When set, it overrides categoryId. You can find category IDs by browsing eBay's category tree or using this reference.

What does the listingType field tell me? It indicates how the item sold: "auction" (bidding), "buy_it_now" (fixed price), or "best_offer_accepted" (negotiated price). This helps distinguish market-driven prices from fixed-price sales.

Why are some fields null? Fields like shippingPrice, sellerType, and conditionId can be null when eBay doesn't display that information on the search card. sellerType is only available on EU sites (Germany, France, Italy, Spain). The condition field is always the authoritative source — conditionId is a best-effort lookup.
