🏷️ B-Stock Amazon Liquidation Auctions Scraper

🚀 Export live B-Stock Amazon liquidation auctions in seconds. Pull every active pallet, truckload, and FBA-return lot with current bid, retail value, units, condition, end time, and product images, ready for CSV, Excel, or JSON.

🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-21 · 📊 24 fields per record · 2 official Amazon storefronts · US ($USD) + EU (£GBP/€EUR) · Updated continuously by B-Stock

B-Stock Solutions is Amazon's official liquidation partner, running the Amazon Liquidation Auctions (US) and Amazon Europe Online Liquidation Auctions storefronts where returned, overstock, and FBA-removed inventory is sold by the pallet or truckload. This Actor walks the live auction list on both marketplaces and returns every active lot with structured metadata, so you can monitor new inventory without refreshing the storefront by hand.

Each record covers the auction title, lot ID, marketplace, category, condition grade, seller facility, current bid, total retail value, units, bid count, close time, and a gallery of Amazon ASIN images for the lot. The scraper hits the Magento storefront and the B-Stock image CDN directly with plain HTTP, so a full pull of the active board finishes in under a minute and is safe to schedule every few minutes for live monitoring. Filter to the US-only or EU-only marketplace, cap the result count for faster previews, or pull both regions in a single run.

🎯 Target Audience	💡 Primary Use Cases

📋 What the B-Stock Amazon Liquidation Auctions Scraper does

• 🔍 Walks both Amazon storefronts. Pulls every live auction on /amazon/ (US) and /amazoneu/ (UK/EU) in one run.
• 💷 Captures multi-currency pricing. USD, GBP, and EUR lots are returned with both the numeric bid and the currency code so downstream tools can normalize.
• 🏷️ Decodes lot identifiers. Each record carries the internal B-Stock lot ID (for example amz_ov_20251203_002, a2z_cr_ukt_20260519_mixed_039) plus the marketplace and seller facility.
• 🖼️ Returns Amazon ASIN images. Each lot ships with a gallery of representative ASIN photos straight from B-Stock's image CDN, ready to hot-link in your sourcing dashboard.
• ⏱️ Records the live close time. End times are normalized to ISO 8601 so schedulers and bid-snipers can act on a known clock.
• 🎚️ Cap result count and image count. Use maxItems for fast previews and imagesPerAuction to throttle bandwidth on large pulls.

Each record carries 24 fields covering identity, marketplace, category, condition, seller, pricing, units, bid count, close time, gallery, and run metadata. Active auctions are returned sorted by soonest-to-close so the most urgent opportunities surface first.

💡 Why it matters: Professional liquidation resellers check B-Stock multiple times a day to catch underpriced pallets before they close. A scheduled scraper turns that manual workflow into a feed your alerting and bidding tools can react to.

⚙️ Input

Field	Type	Default	What it does
marketplaces	array (multi-select)	both	Pick amazon (US), amazoneu (UK/EU), or both. Defaults to walking both.
maxItems	integer	10 (preview)	Cap the result set. Free plan limits to 10. Paid up to 1,000,000.
fetchDetails	boolean	true	Fetch each auction detail page for seller, condition, category, and lot ID. Disable for faster runs that return only listing-page data.
imagesPerAuction	integer	10	Maximum number of product images returned per auction (1 to 50). The first image is also used as the primary imageUrl.

Example: monitor every live US auction, with full detail and a small gallery.

{
    "marketplaces": ["amazon"],
    "maxItems": 1000,
    "fetchDetails": true,
    "imagesPerAuction": 5
}

Example: a fast preview of European auctions only, just listing-page fields.

{
    "marketplaces": ["amazoneu"],
    "maxItems": 25,
    "fetchDetails": false,
    "imagesPerAuction": 1
}

⚠️ Good to Know: B-Stock auctions use "popcorn bidding", which can extend the published close time by a few minutes when last-second bids land. The Actor records the currently posted close time on each pull, so schedule frequent runs if you need a precise countdown.

✨ Why choose this Actor

✨	Capability
⚡	Fast. A full pull of every active US and EU auction finishes in under a minute.
🌍	Both regions. Walks the Amazon Liquidation Auctions (US) and Amazon Europe storefronts together, with the right currency per lot.
💱	Currency-aware. Reads the displayed symbol per auction so EUR-priced UK/EU lots are not mislabeled as GBP.
🖼	Real ASIN imagery. Returns the same product photos that B-Stock surfaces to buyers, straight from the asset CDN.
🔓	No browser, no proxy. Tier 1 plain HTTP against the Magento storefront. No captchas, no fingerprint games, no maintenance taxes.
🧰	Flexible. Toggle detail-page fetches and image count to trade fidelity for speed on big runs.
🔌	Schedule-friendly. Designed to pick up new auctions on every run, no diffing logic needed.

📊 The two storefronts together carry between roughly 4 and 60 active auctions at any given moment, with new lots posted and closing every weekday. Schedule the Actor every 5 to 15 minutes for live monitoring.

📈 How it compares to alternatives

Approach	Cost	Coverage	Refresh	Filters	Setup
Manual check on the storefront	Free, but constant tab-flipping	Whatever is open	Stale the moment you blink	None	Painful
Official publications	Free	Marketing summaries only	Sporadic	None	Account required
Paid live APIs	Subscription	Mixed coverage	Hourly	Coarse	Procurement work
Generic auction aggregators	Subscription	Rarely indexes B-Stock	Hourly	Loose	Account required
⭐ B-Stock Amazon Liquidation Auctions Scraper (this Actor)	Apify usage only	Every active US + EU lot, 24 fields	On demand	Marketplace + count	One click

Generic aggregators rarely index B-Stock's Amazon storefronts, and when they do the body fields are stripped down. This Actor goes straight to the source for the live board.
