The Overstock Scraper extracts product listings from Overstock (now Bed Bath & Beyond) in real time. It browses category pages and collects structured product data - title, price, discounts, ratings, brand, availability and more - using Apify's residential proxy network to bypass bot protection.

Data is sourced directly from Overstock's own product catalog (overstock.com), returning the same listings you see when you browse the site.

Coverage: Furniture, Rugs, Lighting, Bedding, Outdoor, Jewelry, Home Improvement. Each category contains up to 84 pages of listings (4,000+ products per run).

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What categories does this scraper support?

Furniture, rugs, lighting, bedding, bath, outdoor/patio, jewelry, and home improvement. Use natural language in searchQuery (e.g. "sofa", "area rug", "desk").

Does it require login or an API key?

No. Overstock product listings are publicly accessible.

How many items can I scrape?

Free users get 10 items per run. Paid users can extract up to 1,000,000 items per run across 84 pages per category.

What does "discount" look like in the output?

It shows as a string like "25% off" calculated from the original vs. sale price.

Can I get product descriptions?

Descriptions are not included in the current version - they require a separate product page fetch which is slow and intermittent. The listing data (title, price, brand, rating) comes from the category page directly.

Is the pricing real-time?

Yes. Every run fetches live data from Overstock. Prices and availability reflect the current state of the site.

What happens if a page is blocked?

The actor automatically retries up to 5 times per page using different residential proxy IPs before giving up.

What format is the output in?

JSON by default. Apify lets you download as CSV, Excel, XML, or HTML table from the dataset view.

Can I run this on a schedule?

Yes. Set up a scheduled run in Apify Console to collect data daily, weekly, or at any interval.

Is there a cheaper option for small datasets?

Yes - the pay-per-result pricing means you only pay for items you receive. 10 items per run is always free.
