Amazon Product & Buy Box Scraper

🚀 Amazon Buy Box Scraper: Amazon Product API for Price, Stock and Seller

Export Amazon product data by ASIN as clean JSON, CSV or Excel, including who owns the Amazon Buy Box right now. The Amazon Product & Buy Box Scraper turns a list of ASINs or product URLs into rows with the Buy Box seller, price in USD, availability, stock flag, rating, review count, brand and image. Use it as a lightweight Amazon product API, a Buy Box tracker for your own listings, or an Amazon price tracker for a competitor watchlist.

🎯 Use Cases

• Amazon Buy Box tracking: see which seller wins the Buy Box on each of your ASINs, and get alerted when you lose it to a competitor or to Amazon itself.
• Amazon price tracker: schedule a daily run on a watchlist and build your own price and availability history.
• Competitor monitoring: follow rival brands' ASINs for price changes, stock-outs and rating trends.
• Amazon seller lookup: find the merchant behind the Buy Box for a list of products, for MAP enforcement or reseller research.
• Catalog checks: verify that a list of ASINs is still live, in stock and priced as expected.

✨ Features

• Buy Box seller: the merchant currently winning the Buy Box on every ASIN, including Amazon.com when Amazon sells it itself.
• Always-USD pricing: prices come from the US marketplace (amazon.com) in USD, wherever the run happens.
• Product detail: title, brand, price, the price text as shown, availability, in-stock flag, star rating, review count and main image.
• ASINs or URLs: paste bare ASINs (B01N5IB20Q) or Amazon product URLs, mixed in one list; duplicates are removed.
• Honest results: a discontinued ASIN comes back as found: false, and a product that could not be retrieved carries an error, so nothing is silently dropped.
• Fair billing: you pay only for products returned; dead and failed ASINs are free, and the run stops at your maximum cost per run.

🛠️ How It Works

1. Add your ASINs or Amazon product URLs.
2. Set Max items to cap how many products a run scrapes (default 50).
3. Run the scraper and download the products, or read them through the Apify API.

⚙️ Input

Field	What it does	Default
ASINs (asins)	ASINs or Amazon product URLs, one per line.	3 example ASINs
Max items (maxItems)	How many products to scrape in the run.	50
Proxy configuration	The default works.	Apify Proxy

{
    "asins": ["B01N5IB20Q", "B0863TXGM3", "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09B8V1LZ3"],
    "maxItems": 50
}

💰 Pricing

Pay only for the products you get. No monthly rental.

Event	Price	What you get
Product	$0.004 per product ($4.00 per 1,000)	One live product with the Buy Box seller and all fields
Actor start	$0.00005 per run	Charged once when the run starts.

Discontinued and failed ASINs are not charged. Examples: a watchlist of 100 ASINs = $0.40 per run · 500 ASINs checked daily ≈ $60 per month · 1,000 products = $4.00.

📊 Sample Output Data

{
    "asin": "B09B8V1LZ3",
    "url": "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09B8V1LZ3?th=1&psc=1&language=en_US",
    "found": true,
    "title": "Amazon Echo Dot - Vibrant sounding speaker, Designed for Alexa+, Great for bedrooms, dining rooms and offices, Charcoal",
    "brand": "Amazon",
    "price": 79.99,
    "currency": "USD",
    "priceText": "$79.99",
    "buyBoxSeller": "Amazon.com",
    "availability": "In Stock",
    "inStock": true,
    "rating": 4.7,
    "reviewsCount": 201583,
    "imageUrl": "https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61J2sQtBYDL._AC_SY300_SX300_QL70_FMwebp_.jpg",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-10-28T12:48:59.030Z"
}

buyBoxSeller is the merchant in the Buy Box (Amazon.com when Amazon sells it). reviewsCount is the total number of ratings. A dead ASIN returns only asin, url, found: false and scrapedAt; one that could not be retrieved also has "error": "Could not be retrieved", so you can re-run just those.

🔁 Schedule and Integrate

Buy Box ownership and prices change through the day, so run your watchlist daily or every few hours with the same input: every run is a dated snapshot, and a change in buyBoxSeller on your own ASIN is the signal to act on. Set it up with Apify Schedules, and send the results to Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, n8n, Slack or your own webhook through Apify integrations.

❓ FAQ

Does Amazon have an official product API? Amazon's Product Advertising API is for approved Associates and has request quotas tied to sales, and the Selling Partner API is for sellers' own accounts. Neither gives a simple "who has the Buy Box on these ASINs" feed for any product. This scraper needs no key or account and returns the public product page data, Buy Box seller included.

How do I check who has the Amazon Buy Box? Paste the ASINs and run: buyBoxSeller on each row is the merchant currently winning the Buy Box. Schedule it to see when that changes.

Does it return every seller offering the product? No. It returns the Buy Box seller, the offer Amazon shows to shoppers and the one that captures most sales, not the full list of competing offers.

Which Amazon marketplace does it cover? The US marketplace (amazon.com), with prices in USD. Prices are the national default, not tied to a ZIP code.

Do I need an Amazon account? No.

What happens with an invalid or discontinued ASIN? You get a row with found: false, and you are not charged for it.
